Trump’s Crypto Adviser to Launch $300M Bitcoin Firm

David Bailey, a prominent figure in the crypto world and an advisor to President Trump, is spearheading the launch of a new Bitcoin-focused company called Nakamoto.
The firm, which is expected to go public this summer through a reverse merger, has already raised $300 million from private investors—$200 million in equity and $100 million via convertible debt, according to insiders.
While Bailey has remained tight-lipped, the move mirrors Michael Saylor’s Strategy model, positioning Nakamoto as a Bitcoin treasury powerhouse.
The venture aims to build a global portfolio of companies while using Bitcoin as its core asset base, targeting regions like South America, Southeast Asia, and Africa.
Nakamoto’s emergence coincides with renewed institutional appetite for digital assets, triggered in part by friendlier regulatory signals from the Trump administration.
Backed by an advisory team with deep roots in both finance and crypto, the firm joins a growing list of players, including Twenty One Capital and Strive Asset Management, that are building infrastructure to make BTC a core component of corporate balance sheets.
The rapid rise of such companies suggests a structural shift in how Bitcoin is perceived—not just as an asset class, but as a foundational element of future-facing financial strategy. As this trend gains momentum, market observers expect a surge in competition among firms looking to become the next dominant name in crypto finance.
