Inside 210k Capital’s Crypto Bet

210k Capital, a hedge fund founded by entrepreneur David Bailey, has reportedly posted massive gains from its digital asset holdings after helping persuade US President Donald Trump to adopt a pro-crypto policy stance, highlighting the potential impact of favorable regulation on the digital asset sector.

The fund delivered a net return of 640% in the 12 months through June, largely driven by investments in publicly traded companies that added Bitcoin (BTC) to their balance sheets, Bloomberg reported.

As a private entity, 210k Capital is not required to disclose financials, but Bloomberg obtained the figures from an anonymous source, who also said the fund’s wealth stems from Bitcoin treasury investments in several countries, including the US, UK, Canada, Australia and Sweden.

The hedge fund’s parent company, UTXO Management, reports that 210k Capital has investments in several Bitcoin-linked companies, including Strategy (MSTR), Metaplanet (3350), Moon Inc. (1723), The Smarter Web Company (SWC), The Blockchain Group (ALTBG), Liquid Technologies (LQWD), H100 (H100), Matador (MATA) and DV8 (DV8).

Managing partner Tyler Evans told Bloomberg the firm is evaluating an additional 30 investments in so-called Bitcoin proxies — companies operating within the Bitcoin ecosystem.

Bailey, a serial entrepreneur and founder of Bitcoin Magazine and BTC Inc., served as a key crypto adviser to then-candidate Trump’s presidential campaign. Bloomberg describes him as the chief architect behind Trump’s pivot toward Bitcoin.

While little is publicly known about 210k Capital, Bailey’s influence is widely felt across the digital asset ecosystem. In May, Cointelegraph reported that his Bitcoin investment firm, Nakamoto Holdings, raised $300 million and is exploring a potential public offering.

The company later raised an additional $51.5 million as part of its merger with healthcare provider KindlyMD, aiming to further scale its Bitcoin treasury strategy.
