- History of operating losses & cash shortages
2. Regulatory Uncertainty:
- Changing crypto rules could disrupt plans
- Banking access challenges possible
📉 Recent Struggles:

- Currently trading at ~$13.33 (up 3% after this announcement)
🔍 Why This Matters:
Bakkt (backed by NYSE parent ICE) aims to bet big on crypto’s future – but its survival hinges on this $1B move.
