Bakkt enhances Trading offering by adding nine new coins

Written by Bakkt | September 10, 2024

We heard you – our clients want access to more coins! Today, we are excited to announce that we have added nine coins to our platform: Algorand (ALGO), Avalanche (AVAX), Cardano (ADA), Chainlink (LINK), Cosmos (ATOM), Pepe Coin (PEPE), Polkadot (DOT), Ripple (XRP) and Solana (SOL).  All nine tokens will be available to our clients to make available to their users in the US states and jurisdictions supported by Bakkt.

We are committed to providing safe and responsible crypto access to our customers. Prior to the addition of these assets, all nine were subject to our rigorous self-certification process, ensuring that our decision to list the assets followed the stringent standards set out in our NY Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) approved Coin Listing Policy. We expect the addition of these tokens will continue the expansion of accessible US crypto markets and further enhance the value of the Bakkt relationship to our clients.

As always, Bakkt has a strong institutional-grade foundation bolstered by comprehensive licensing, including Money Transmitter Licenses in all states where required and an NYDFS BitLicense, which allow us to provide clients with secure and compliant crypto services. The addition of these nine assets complements the assets already accessible via the Bakkt platform: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Ether Classic (ETC), Dogecoin (DOGE), Litecoin (LTC), USD Coin (USDC)* and Shiba Inu (SHIB). All of the tokens that we offer are subject to regular evaluation under our Coin Listing Policy and are also regularly evaluated to maximize client experience. 

We are excited to continue to enhance our trading offering with new capabilities while continuing to provide best-in-class, licensed and compliant crypto trading.
