Trump Media, the company behind the social media platform Truth Social, is in advanced talks to purchase Bakkt, a cryptocurrency trading company. This news sent both companies' shares soaring. Bakkt has faced financial challenges in recent years and warned investors that it may not be able to continue as a going concern. The acquisition, if it goes through, would represent a significant investment in cryptocurrency for Trump Media and would mark a further expansion of Donald Trump's business interests into the cryptocurrency realm.
