币界网报道:Bakkt, the publicly traded crypto custody firm, plans to raise up to $1 billion through equity and debt offerings to fund Bitcoin acquisitions, according to an SEC filing. The shelf offering may include sales of Class A common stock, preferred stock, warrants, and debt securities. On June 10, Bakkt updated its investment policy to allocate capital into Bitcoin and other digital assets as part of its treasury strategy, though no purchases have been made yet. Co-CEO Akshay Naheta stated this initiative supports Bakkt's transformation into a pure-play crypto infrastructure company and reflects conviction in digital assets' future. Founded in 2018 with ICE's backing, Bakkt initially offered physically-settled Bitcoin futures before pivoting to tokenized rewards and custody. The firm went public in 2021 after previous CEO Kelly Loeffler departed in 2019. Reports last November indicated Trump's Truth Social was in advanced talks to acquire Bakkt.
