Nakamoto, Bitcoin Holdings Decline after $20 Million Sale

Nakamoto sold 284 Bitcoin in March for about $20 million, with an average price of about $70,400 per coin. The company had valued its Bitcoin at $87,519 per coin at the end of 2025, implying a near-20 % discount on the sale. At year-end, it held 1,625 BTC worth $142.2 million, based on that valuation.

Following the transaction, Nakamoto reported total holdings of about 5,058 BTC, down from 5,342 BTC at the end of 2025.

Nakamoto chairs David Bailey, and he oversees the firm’s strategy as it integrates BTC Inc and UTXO Management.

The company also recorded a $166.2 million loss in 2025 due to changes in the fair value of its crypto assets. Bitcoin price traded below Nakamoto’s average purchase price during that period, and the firm reported a net loss of $52.2 million for the year.

Metaplanet Exit Adds to Quarterly Pressure

Nakamoto reduced its exposure to Metaplanet during the first quarter and sold five million shares for about $11.1 million. The company had acquired eight million shares at $3.75 each, and it invested about $30 million in total. The sale price of about $2.22 per share reflected a loss on the disposed shares.

By the end of 2025, Nakamoto had already marked down the Metaplanet investment. It reported an unrealized loss of $9.29 million, including foreign exchange effects, and it reduced the carrying value to $20.7 million.

Bailey said the company will wind down its legacy healthcare operations and focus on recent acquisitions. He stated that Nakamoto will concentrate on integrating BTC Inc and UTXO Management into its core structure.

Nakamoto’s shares have declined sharply in recent months, and they have fallen 40% year-to-date. The stock has also dropped 80% over the past six months, according to Yahoo! Finance data. Shares traded around $0.21 at the time of writing, well below their mid-2025 peak above $30.

In December 2025, when the company still operated as KindlyMD, Nasdaq issued a notice over its share price. The exchange cited a failure to meet the $1 minimum bid price for 30 consecutive business days. Nasdaq granted six months to regain compliance or face possible delisting.

UK Reform Party argues stablecoin limits stifle innovation

The post UK Reform Party argues stablecoin limits stifle innovation appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The United Kingdom’s minority party Reform has formally rejected the Bank of England’s proposal to cap stablecoin holdings and its broader plan to introduce a central bank digital currency (CBDC). In a Sept. 18 statement on X, the party’s head of policy, Zia Yusuf, alongside party figurehead Nigel Farage, warned that the measures would damage Britain’s competitiveness in the global digital economy. Last week, the Bank of England proposed restricting stablecoin exposure for individuals and businesses. Under the draft proposal, citizens would be limited to holding between £10,000 and £20,000 in systemic stablecoins, while businesses would face a maximum cap of £10 million. The regulator argues that the plan aims to reduce financial risks as digital assets become more mainstream. However, the Reform party leaders framed the proposal as an attack on innovation rather than a safeguard. They argued that limiting the use of stablecoins risks choking off demand for British government debt while strengthening the position of global rivals. According to the statement, dollar–pegged stablecoins like USDC and USDT funnel significant liquidity into US Treasuries, reinforcing the dollar’s dominance in digital finance. By contrast, the UK lacks any mechanism equivalent to a backstop demand for gilts. Yusuf wrote: “Now ask yourself: where is the British equivalent? Where is the pound-backed stablecoin with deep liquidity, one that global markets can trust, one that channels fresh demand into UK gilts? It doesn’t exist, because policymakers here have been openly hostile to innovators. Instead of building the future, Britain’s regulators have smothered it.” Considering this, Yusuf argued that “stablecoins are not a danger to financial stability.” Instead, he described the assets as: “[A] bridge between the digital world and the traditional banking system. A bridge between entrepreneurs and customers, between investors and opportunity. They are simply new wrappers around money – safer,…
