Evidence-reviewed provider snapshot

Last reviewed 18 Aug 2026. Unknown fields remain unknown rather than being inferred.

Evidence reviewed
Regulation / role

Bakkt historically operated institutional custody, but its 2026 SEC/investor filings state that it exited the custody business in 2025 as part of a strategic transformation.

Security assurance

Legacy custody controls are historical and should not be attributed to current Bakkt services after the divestiture.

Asset protection

Historical custody arrangements must not be treated as current Bakkt asset protection. Identify the current custodian in any Bakkt-enabled workflow.

Institutional services

Current Bakkt materials emphasize institutional digital-asset trading and cross-border payments/settlement rather than an owned custody business.

Procurement caveat: Moved to Status Watch because primary filings state Bakkt divested its custody business in 2025. Historical SEO page retained to preserve URL equity and clarify the change.
