KindlyMD completed its merger with Nakamoto Holdings and wasted no time putting capital to work, scooping up 5,744 BTC for $679M at an average price of $118,204. The new entity, trading under ticker NAKA, now sits among the top 20 corporate bitcoin treasuries.
What’s the Scoop?
- First Buy: KindlyMD disclosed holdings of 5,764.91 BTC, just days after closing its merger and raising $740M through a PIPE deal and convertible note offering.
- Corporate Treasury Trend: The company joins a wave of firms converting their balance sheets into bitcoin accumulation vehicles, a model popularized by Michael Saylor’s Strategy.
- Ranking: With nearly $680M in BTC, NAKA now outranks treasury holders including Semler Scientific, GameStop, and Cango Inc.
- Long-Term Target: CEO David Bailey says the company ultimately aims to acquire 1M BTC, about 5% of bitcoin’s total supply cap.
Bankless Take:
David Bailey is a staunch proponent of the 
Bitcoin ecosystem, leaving us with little surprise that he immediately smashed buy with NAKA fundraise proceeds. Despite gaining 8% in early trading, NAKA shares are down 13% on the day.

3. @Anchorage nailed…
