Truth Social owner is close to an all-share takeover of Intercontinental Exchange’s Bakkt
Donald Trump’s social media company is in advanced talks to buy Bakkt, a cryptocurrency trading venue owned by Intercontinental Exchange, as it pushes to expand beyond online conversation.
The US president-elect’s Trump Media and Technology Group, in which he has pledged to retain his 53 per cent stake, is closing in on an all-share purchase of Bakkt, said two people with knowledge of the talks. The valuation under discussion was not immediately clear but Bakkt’s market capitalisation stood at just over $150mn on Monday.
