Bakkt

Founded in 2018, Bakkt is building the backbone of next-generation digital financial infrastructure that enables institutional participation in the digital asset economy. The company provides solutions spanning Bitcoin, tokenization, stablecoin payments, and AI-driven finance, all built with the scale, security, and regulatory compliance demanded by global institutions.

Core Products

Bakkt offers three primary institutional-grade solutions:

Bakkt Markets provides a fully regulated, SOC2-compliant infrastructure with over 45 listed digital assets and a powerful institutional-grade trading platform. With a 50-state licensing footprint and a New York BitLicense, it delivers a single turnkey solution for liquidity, yield, and digital finance trading. The platform enables fintechs, brokers, and financial institutions to launch secure, compliant brokerage and trading capabilities with accelerated time-to-market, eliminating the need for in-house development.

Bakkt Agent combines AI-driven interfaces with compliant payment solutions to power global money movement, savings, and yield through banking partners. This modular, agentic infrastructure features an intelligent agent swarm accessible through a single API endpoint that accepts voice, chat, and file uploads. The system includes specialized AI agents like Zaira that handle user onboarding, account creation, and global transfers across 36+ payout corridors and 10 blockchain networks. Behind the simple interface lies Bakkt Core: virtual accounts (IBANs and US accounts), global payment rails, and multi-chain stablecoin infrastructure.

Bakkt Global serves as an international expansion catalyst, leveraging Bakkt's intellectual capital into new jurisdictions through minority investments. The company operates at the intersection of AI and the Bitcoin economy, making AI-related investments underpinned by a Bitcoin-backed treasury. Bitcoin Japan Corporation, listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE: 8105), expands institutional access in Japan as part of this initiative.

The platform is built to scale with engineered security and rigorous compliance standards.
