Bakkt CEO said that the physically-settled Bitcoin futures contracts would be completely pre-funded while the facility of margin trading won’t be provided.
Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), the parent of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) announced the launch if a new global crypto platform ‘Bakkt’ in collaboration with tech giant Microsoft. The
digital asset platform will be focused towards making it easy for users to use and spend their cryptocurrency holdings while also allowing them to trade when required.
