Metaplanet has stepped up its Bitcoin acquisition strategy this year, purchasing more BTC in the last six weeks than it did throughout 2024.

Data from Bitcoin Treasuries shows that the firm, under the leadership of Simon Gerovich, acquired 2,290 BTC in eight transactions between March 3 and April 14. This aggressive buying streak averages around 51 BTC per day.

To put the fast-paced accumulation in context, Metaplanet bought 1,762 BTC in 2024, spending roughly $136 million.

That figure has already been eclipsed in 2025, with more aggressive purchases and higher spending reflecting a clear long-term strategy for the top crypto.

During the last six weeks, the largest single buy occurred on April 1, with the company scooping up 696 BTC. Conversely, the smallest transactions were 150 BTC each, completed on March 18 and 24.

Meanwhile, the most recent acquisition came on April 14, when Metaplanet secured 319 BTC for approximately ¥3.78 billion (around $26.3 million) at an average price of ¥11.85 million ($82,549) per coin.

However, the Gerovich-led firm has no intention of slowing down. Metaplanet is targeting a reserve of 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025, with a longer-term goal of holding 21,000 BTC by 2026.

Metaplanet currently holds 4,525 BTC, worth roughly $386.3 million.

Immutable has launched its new Perpetual Rewards programme, offering players a chance to win cryptocurrency through weekly prize draws. The first draw went live on 10 April with a total pool of 235,758.46 $IMX tokens—equivalent to roughly $93,000 at the time of launch.

The programme builds on previous in-game reward systems and is aimed at players who have already participated in supported blockchain games. Those who have collected enough in-game currency known as Gems can now exchange them for entries into a weekly draw.

This marks a formal rollout of a system that was previously tested in beta. According to Immutable, draws will occur on a regular schedule and will include a range of digital prizes, primarily denominated in its native $IMX token.

What is the Immutable Perpetual Rewards?

The Perpetual Rewards programme is designed to distribute $IMX tokens and other in-game items to players based on their past activity. First announced in December 2024, it builds on an earlier initiative called “Main Quests,” which encouraged users to complete tasks in supported games to earn Gems.

Eligible games include Guild of Guardians and Illuvium, among others. Players accumulate Gems by completing in-game objectives which now serve as the main currency for participating in the rewards system.

The prizes in the Perpetual Rewards programme are distributed based on the player’s Key tier. Players who redeem a Key are eligible for prizes from different pools, which are segmented by the rarity of their Key. The prize breakdown for the first draw (235,758.46 $IMX tokens) includes the following tiers:

  • Common Tier – 5.88% (13,862.60 $IMX)
  • Uncommon Tier – 11.36% (26,782.16 $IMX)
  • Rare Tier – 21.98% (51,819.71 $IMX)
  • Epic Tier – 18.67% (44,016.10 $IMX)
  • Legendary Tier – 17.12% (40,361.85 $IMX)

Additionally, there is a Mythic Draw, which holds 25% of the total prize pool (58,939.62 $IMX) and is open to everyone, regardless of Key tier. In this pool, 100 random winners will receive prizes ranging from 181.548 $IMX to 20,955.888 $IMX.

How to get involved?

To enter the Weekly Draw, players must redeem 500 Gems in exchange for a Key. Each Key represents one entry into that week’s draw, and only one Key may be used per player per week. The draw is divided into three phases:

  • Phase 1: Redemption (Thursday to Monday): Players redeem their Gems for a Key.
  • Phase 2: Rewards (Tuesday): Immutable processes all entries and determines rewards.
  • Phase 3: Claim (Wednesday): Participants can log in to claim any prizes won.

Prizes include $IMX tokens, bonus Gems, future draw entries, and other in-game benefits.
