Purchases Reflect Confidence in Nakamoto’s Strategy, Assets, and Long-Term Growth

NASHVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nakamoto Inc. (Nasdaq: NAKA) (“Nakamoto” or the “Company”) announced that David Bailey, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, has purchased 191,448 shares of Nakamoto common stock on the open market from May 26, 2026 through May 28, 2026 at an average price of approximately $5.19 per share, for a total investment of $992,837.61. Following the transactions, Mr. Bailey beneficially owns approximately 18.25% of Nakamoto’s outstanding common stock.

Mr. Bailey commented, “The market continues to discount the long-term value of the business, but our conviction in the future has never been stronger.

Having spent the last 15 years building BTC Inc., UTXO Management, and now Nakamoto, I believe deeply in our mission and the opportunities ahead. My recent purchase of Company stock reflects that conviction, and I remain committed to creating long-term value for our shareholders through disciplined execution and thoughtful capital allocation.”
