Trump's social media group in talks to buy Bakkt!

Hi HODLers, Hiveans and Lions,

According to the Financial Times, DJT is actively trying to purchase Bakkt, which is backed by NYSE owner (ICE)

Trump Media and Technology Group (DJT.O), opens new tab, which operates Truth Social, is close to an all-stock acquisition of Bakkt, the report said.

I surely did not expect this to happen but it shows that Trump sees a way to make profit in this sector and let's face it this is why we might have some positive regulation going forward.

Bakkt had $279 million in volume in November 2024 so it is a sizeable exchange but not a Top 5 in the Crypto Space.

The president-elect has also launched a new crypto venture, World Liberty Financial.

Great news!! I see the crypto world increasingly expanding

It certainly feels like it. The only issue I see is that a lot of these newcomers are definitely only here for quick profit and hunting retail investors/users.

And I dislike that... #Bitcoin was the first bottom-up financial revolution!
