2024-11-19 105

Trump Media is reportedly in advanced talks to acquire cryptocurrency trading firm Bakkt. Shares of both companies soared following the report. Trump Media shares rose sharply, while Bakkt shares experienced a dramatic surge accompanied by trading halts due to volatility. Bakkt stated it has enough capital to operate for at least a year but warned this outlook could change, potentially resulting in significant losses for shareholders. The company also disclosed a prior warning from the New York Stock Exchange about the risk of delisting due to its stock trading below the $1 minimum requirement.
