Kevin Zhang Joins Nakamoto Holdings, Inc. as Head of Asia
We are excited to announce that Kevin Zhang has joined Nakamoto Holdings, Inc. as Head of Asia to drive our Bitcoin treasury strategy across one of the world’s most important and dynamic regions.
Kevin will focus on cultivating key relationships with governments, regulators, exchanges, and public companies, while also strengthening ties with institutional investors, sovereign funds, and family offices. His work will be central to advancing Nakamoto’s mission to build the premier global institutional-grade Bitcoin treasury vehicle and provide investors around the world with unique exposure to Bitcoin.
“Kevin’s appointment reflects our belief in Asia as one of the most crucial regions for Bitcoin’s future,” said David Bailey, CEO and Chairman. “Kevin’s strong track record of leading highly successful Bitcoin projects and deep network of relationships will be invaluable to Nakamoto as we continue to scale our operations in Asia and set the standard for corporate Bitcoin adoption worldwide.”
Kevin first entered the Bitcoin space in 2014 and has spent the past decade at the forefront of mining and infrastructure deployment. Most recently, he served as SVP of Business Development and Mining Strategies at Foundry Digital. In this role, Kevin oversaw the deployment of one of the largest North American fleets and helped build the world’s largest Bitcoin mining pool for four consecutive years, serving the majority of publicly listed mining companies.
Prior to joining Foundry Digital, Kevin served as Chief Mining Officer at Greenidge Generation, where he transformed a 106MW natural gas plant into the first federally regulated power plant to mine Bitcoin, paving the way for broader institutional adoption of mining in the U.S. Before that, he served as Mining Operations Manager at Bitcoin.com, overseeing the deployment of more than 80,000 miners across the U.S., Europe, and China, and growing the Bitcoin.com pool into a top-five global mining pool. In 2016, he co-founded Project Spokane, a Bitcoin mining datacenter that he helped establish as the largest mining facility in North America at the time.
Kevin added, “Bitcoin has always been about bridging communities and unlocking new possibilities. I look forward to leveraging my longstanding relationships and deep familiarity with Asian capital markets to develop partnerships with investors, governments, and companies to integrate Bitcoin into financial systems across the region.”
