Metaplanet Enlists David Bailey To Join Advisory Board
Tokyo-based Metaplanet has bolstered its ranks with the appointment of David Bailey to its Strategic Board of Advisors. According to a company statement, David Bailey will take his place on Metaplanet’s Strategic Board of Advisors effective immediately.
Per the statement, David Bailey’s role in the Bitcoin ecosystem runs deep, given his role as CEO of BTC Inc. and community advocacy. BTC Inc. is the parent company of Bitcoin Magazine and the organizer of the industry-acclaimed Bitcoin conference.
This appointment represents another important step in Metaplanet’s continued mission to drive Bitcoin adoption and strengthen its position as a global leader in the Bitcoin economy
David Bailey’s appointment sees him join ranks with Donald Trump’s son, Eric Trump, on the Strategic Board of Advisors. Eric Trump joined the Board back in March, with Metaplanet pledging to bolster its ranks in the coming weeks.
We are honored to welcome David Bailey as the second member of our Strategic Board of Advisors,” said Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich.
Metaplanet has acquired $5,000 BTC since it started its Bitcoin accumulation barely one year ago. Following David Bailey’s appointment, the Tokyo-based company will double down on its Bitcoin accumulation trend.
A Two-Man Team To Steer Global Bitcoin Adoption
David Bailey and Eric Trump are now poised to provide advisory services to Metaplanet in its quest to improve Bitcoin adoption. Bailey expressed excitement over his appointment, noting that he will deploy his expertise to bring BTC to the capital markets.
A background check on Bailey reveals a streak of shaping positive Bitcoin narratives, key angles in Metaplanet’s bid. Fellow board member Eric Trump’s experience in brand development and real estate will be a pivotal element for Metaplanet.
Eric Trump has confirmed that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies will be accepted in Trump Tower Dubai. Furthermore, Metaplanet will be banking on Eric Trump’s media influence and David Bailey’s real-world experience in framing discourse around BTC.
Metaplanet is mirroring MicroStrategy’s BTC accumulation play with both firms recording a combined $5.1 billion gain from Bitcoin holdings in 2025.
