Metaplanet Adds Bitcoin Experts to Advisory Board
Metaplanet, a Tokyo-based company, is aggressively pursuing Bitcoin adoption. After accumulating 5,000 BTC, they've assembled a high-profile advisory board to guide their strategy. The latest additions are David Bailey, CEO of BTC Inc., and Eric Trump.
David Bailey Joins Metaplanet's Advisory Board
David Bailey's appointment to Metaplanet's Strategic Board of Advisors was announced on X. His extensive experience includes leading BTC Inc., the parent company of Bitcoin Magazine and organizer of prominent Bitcoin conferences.
Metaplanet's CEO, Simon Gerovich, stated, "This appointment is a significant step in Metaplanet’s mission to drive Bitcoin adoption and solidify its position as a global leader in the Bitcoin economy."
Strategic Board: A Powerful Duo
Bailey joins Eric Trump, who joined the board in March. Together, they bring diverse expertise to Metaplanet. Eric Trump's background in brand development and real estate, coupled with his confirmation that Trump Tower Dubai will accept Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies (source), provides significant media reach and market influence.
Bailey's focus will be on leveraging his expertise to bring Bitcoin to capital markets and help shape positive narratives surrounding the cryptocurrency, aligning perfectly with Metaplanet's goals. This collaboration between Bailey’s practical experience and Trump's brand recognition and media influence positions Metaplanet for significant growth.
