Nakamoto Inc. executed a 1-for-40 reverse stock split effective May 22, 2026, vaulting its share price from roughly $0.16 to around $6 in a bid to stay listed on the Nasdaq.

The move was necessary because Nasdaq requires listed companies to maintain a minimum bid price of $1 per share. Nakamoto’s stock had been trading well below that threshold for months, putting its listing in jeopardy with a compliance deadline approaching in June 2026.
