Bitcoin: Kindly MD Risks Nasdaq Delisting After Stock Collapse

Kindly MD thought it could reinvent itself with bitcoin. Listed on the Nasdaq, the company refocused its strategy around the flagship asset after its merger with Nakamoto Holdings. However, the initial euphoria gave way to a sharp drop in the price, resulting in a formal warning from the American stock exchange. Without a rapid recovery, the company now risks delisting.

A Delisting Threat: Kindly MD Summoned by Nasdaq to Raise Its Stock Price

While bitcoin plunged sharply and triggered a wave of liquidations, the company Kindly MD, now listed under the ticker NAKA, just received an official non-compliance notification from Nasdaq on December 11.

The reason for this notification is that its stock traded below $1 for 30 consecutive trading days. This situation places the company under the threat of delisting unless it manages to raise its stock price within the deadline.

According to the regulatory filing submitted to the SEC, Kindly has until June 8, 2026, to sustainably raise its stock price above $1 for at least 10 consecutive trading sessions.

In case of failure, Kindly may consider a transfer to the Nasdaq Capital Market, provided it meets the listing criteria specific to that segment. Otherwise, delisting will become effective, with serious consequences for its liquidity, visibility, and fundraising ability. Here are the key points to remember:

• The stock price below $1 for 30 trading days, triggering an automatic Nasdaq procedure;

• A deadline until June 8, 2026, to regain compliant trading over at least 10 consecutive sessions;

• The option to transfer to the Nasdaq Capital Market, provided the criteria of this alternative market are met;

• A risk of delisting if no effective corrective measures are taken.

This notification is a clear alarm signal for a company that, despite a Bitcoin-focused strategy, has failed to convince financial markets. The outcome will largely depend on Kindly’s ability to restore investor confidence within this tight timeframe.

When Bitcoin Is Not Enough to Sustain a Stock Market Strategy

Kindly MD’s shift towards bitcoin is not recent. Last May, the Utah-based company announced its merger with Nakamoto Holdings, an entity founded by David Bailey, CEO of Bitcoin Magazine.

The project was ambitious: to build a holding company in partnership with BTC Inc., with the declared goal of making Kindly a major player in Bitcoin treasury. The stock briefly reached $25 at the end of May, driven by the announcement.

However, this momentum did not last. In September, a huge wave of sell-offs followed a PIPE (Private Investment in Public Equity) fundraising of $563 million. These shares, sold at a discount to private investors, then became eligible for public resale. As a result, a massive influx of sell orders literally caused the price to drop more than 98%, down to $0.39 today.

In an interview with Forbes, David Bailey acknowledged that this financing created brutal downward pressure. Nonetheless, the strategy remains unchanged: Kindly currently holds 5,398 BTC, which places it 19th worldwide among public companies holding bitcoin, according to data from BitcoinTreasuries.NET.

Last August, the stated goal was to reach 1 million BTC, a colossal ambition that the market no longer seems to believe in. For comparison, Strategy, a pioneer in Bitcoin treasury, holds 671,268 BTC and maintains solid capitalization despite a 40% drop in its stock price this year.

Kindly MD remains under pressure, forced to prove that its strategy can survive the demands of traditional markets. Whatever the outcome, its case highlights that betting on the bitcoin price guarantees neither stock market stability nor lasting investor confidence.
