Trump-Linked Crypto Advisor David Bailey Aims to Secure $300M for Bitcoin Mega-Fund

Former Trump crypto advisor David Bailey is making waves—again—this time with a bold $300M Bitcoin investment play. Because nothing says ’trust the system’ like a political insider diving headfirst into decentralized finance.

The venture targets institutional-grade Bitcoin exposure, capitalizing on renewed Wall Street interest post-ETF approvals. Bailey’s move coincides with Bitcoin’s 2025 resurgence—proving even volatile assets get second acts in today’s manic markets.

Bonus jab: Because when traditional finance falters, why not double down on the asset class that laughs at Fed rates and bank failures?

Bailey-Led Firm Nakamoto to Merge with Nasdaq Firm

The deal has been in the works since January. As a result, Bailey’s company, Nakamoto, will merge with an existing Nasdaq-listed firm. The merger announcement is expected early next week. Following that, the company’s public listing is anticipated later this summer.

Bailey’s company, named after the pseudonymous Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto, will focus on acquiring and holding Bitcoin. This strategy will provide a new avenue for investors to gain exposure to the cryptocurrency. Moreover, Nakamoto plans to expand globally. Specifically, it aims to invest in companies across countries like Brazil, Thailand, and South Africa.

Nakamoto Attracts High-Profile Investors and Advisory Board to Back Bitcoin Strategy

The venture has already attracted a lineup of prominent investors. It will also feature a high-profile advisory board. Bitcoin investment firms like Nakamoto raise significant capital through a combination of equity and debt. This capital is used to buy and hold Bitcoin, offering investors an indirect way to bet on the asset’s price fluctuations.

Bailey’s approach is aligned with the strategy popularized by Michael Saylor, the founder of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy). In 2020, Saylor began converting the company’s cash reserves into Bitcoin.

This shift transformed MicroStrategy into a Bitcoin holding company. As a result, its stock price soared alongside Bitcoin’s value. Today, MicroStrategy ranks among the largest corporate holders of Bitcoin. This sets the stage for Nakamoto to follow suit and capitalize on the growing demand for Bitcoin investment opportunities.
