Bitcoin Treasury Firm Nakamoto to Acquire BTC Inc and UTXO in $107M All-Stock Deal

While the broader crypto market is experiencing a notable downtrend, some crypto-focused companies are expanding their empire.

One such firm is the Bitcoin treasury firm, Nakamoto Inc., which announced today its million-dollar acquisition plan. The company has signed definitive agreements to acquire the Bitcoin media and events firm BTC Inc. and the asset management company UTXO.

A Merger Agreement Deal

Nakamoto has had the merger deal underway since last year after getting shareholders’ approval to proceed.

It will fund the acquisition plan using its common stock, NAKA. BTC Inc. and UTXO will receive over 363.5 million NAKA shares, valued at approximately $107.3 million, using a price of $0.2951 per share. The firm noted that the final valuation is “subject to customary purchase price adjustments” upon completion of the deal at the end of the first quarter.

Recall that Nakamoto rebranded last month from a healthcare-focused KindlyMD to its current name after its merger with Nakamoto Holdings. Nakamoto Inc. became the Bitcoin treasury firm while Kindly LLC became the healthcare subsidiary.

As of last year, the company has been acquiring BTC. According to the latest data from BitcoinTreasuries, Nakamoto ranks as the 19th-largest public Bitcoin treasury firm, with a portfolio of 5,398 BTC (valued at $366 million).

Nakamoto’s Expansion Plan

The Bitcoin treasury firm’s CEO and chairman, David Bailey, explained the firm’s goal, saying:

“Bringing BTC Inc and UTXO into Nakamoto has been a part of our vision since day one. We intend to operate a portfolio of companies across media, asset management, and advisory services that can scale with Bitcoin’s long-term growth. [. . .] This transaction signifies the first step of the company we intend to build, and we’re just getting started.”

Nakamoto’s latest expansion plan comes amid an ongoing crypto winter. At the time of writing, the global crypto market valuation stands at $2.34 trillion, a significant decline from 30 days ago. At that time, it held a capitalization of $3.05 trillion.
