币界网报道:Bakkt Holdings, the digital asset platform owned by Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), has filed a $1 billion mixed shelf offering with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The filing allows Bakkt to sell various securities, including common stock, preferred stock, warrants, and debt securities, in one or more offerings over time. The proceeds are intended for general corporate purposes, which may include potential acquisitions, strategic investments, and working capital. Bakkt, known for its institutional-focused Bitcoin custody and trading services, has been expanding its offerings, including a recent partnership with Mastercard to enable crypto rewards on debit and credit cards. The company went public via a SPAC merger in October 2021 but has faced challenges amid the broader crypto market downturn. The shelf registration provides flexibility to raise capital as market conditions permit, though Bakkt has not yet specified timing or terms for any potential offerings. The move comes as crypto firms seek funding avenues despite regulatory uncertainties and volatile market conditions.
