Bakkt CEO Kelly Loeffler, thanked supporters for their positive points of view and confidence via the platform Medium:

“I wanted to share a couple of quick observations from the last two weeks. First, the response to our news worldwide was very strong. The credit for that goes in large part, to a premier group of partners and the vision for Bakkt we collaborated on for months. Equally important is the widespread need we’re hearing for trusted infrastructure for trading, storing and spending digital currencies.”

She concluded the article pointing out the busy period that is going to come:

“It’s exciting to do this work as the end of a busy summer approaches and an even busier fall awaits. Thanks for your interest and feedback.”
