Metaplanet added 2,823 BTC in Q2; RWA platform Securitize officially listed on the NYSE.
According to ChainCatcher and BBX data, early last week, Asia's largest listed BTC reserve holder announced record-breaking quarterly BTC purchases, and the world's largest RWA tokenization platform officially listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Key developments are as follows: Metaplanet Inc. (TSE: 3350) officially disclosed its Q2 2026 Bitcoin accumulation data on July 1st: It purchased 2,823 BTC at an average price of approximately $78,872 (35.4886 billion yen) throughout the quarter, totaling approximately $225 million. As of June 30th, its total holdings rose to 43,000 BTC, with a total cost of approximately $4.09 billion (overall average price of $95,209). The unique aspects are as follows: The company's dedicated Bitcoin options trading business generated revenue of $10.95 million in Q2. After directly deducting the cost of Bitcoin purchases from this revenue, the effective net average purchase price was approximately $75,032 per coin (still a discount compared to the current market price of approximately $61,000, but saving approximately 4.8% compared to the nominal average price of $78,872); H1 2026 options revenue totaled $29.2 million, with trailing 12-month options revenue of $70.7 million; Q2 BTC Yield (Bitcoin holdings/effective diluted share capital ratio) increased by 6.6% year-on-year; the funds for Bitcoin purchases this quarter came from credit lines, ordinary bond issuance, and options revenue, without using equity dilution methods. The company also disclosed that it has reached an agreement to acquire Siiibo Securities, a licensed Class 1 securities firm in Japan, and include it in its "Project Nova" strategic expansion plan. Securitize Corp. (NYSE: $SECZ) officially completed its SPAC merger with Cantor Equity Partners II ($CEPT) in early July and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange, becoming the world's first NYSE-listed company with tokenized asset infrastructure as its core business. According to CoinDesk, on its first day of trading on the NYSE, the company simultaneously tokenized $295 million of its own stock and deployed it on the Solana and Avalanche blockchains. This is the largest issuer-led tokenized stock offering to date—Securitize uses its own stock as a tokenization case to counter competitors' third-party synthetic token solutions (i.e., derivative structures with indirect ownership). The company previously managed over $4 billion in tokenized assets and established deep partnerships with NYSE, BlackRock, Computershare, Jump Trading, and others. Q1 2026 revenue was $19.5 million. After its IPO, $SECZ will serve as a valuation benchmark for the RWA tokenization sector, alongside Coinbase (Base Chain) and Galaxy Dig.
