The post Bitcoin treasury Nakamoto down 98% — still pays David Bailey lavishly appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

David Bailey’s publicly-traded bitcoin (BTC) treasury company, Nakamoto (NAKA), has crashed so low that its investors are measuring its multiple-to-Net Asset Value (mNAV) in fractions. The once-high flyer, which just delayed its quarterly earnings report and associated SEC filings, has complained about “complexity of accounting” after losing over $23 million on digital assets, replaced a CEO at a company it is acquiring, and admitted that it had originally planned to pay a lavish, 10x multiple for one of Bailey’s private businesses, BTC Inc.

Once cheaply priced at $1.12 per share when NAKA shares were soaring in the $30s, the $1.12 peg for Bailey’s all-stock deal with BTC Inc. is now richly above NAKA’s penny stock valuation. Somehow, Bailey originally convinced KindlyMD — the public company that provided the NAKA shares for Nakamoto to trade on the Nasdaq — to pay “an industry standard multiple, not to be less than 10, of the earnings before interest, taxes, depreciations, and amortization (EBITDA) of BTC and its subsidiaries.” That 10x multiple equals a lavish $306 million based on BTC Inc.’s most recently annualized $30.6 million…
