I think they're doing their best to manipulate the market with all those fucking announcements.

I'll bet there are thousands upon thousands of other delayed financial products and platforms right now that go completely unmentioned. It's only the desperation of us saps that fuels the desperation surrounding it.

This is how the real world operates. Overestimates are given. Problems emerge. People slack. Things fall through.

Crypto fans are childlike. They want everything NOOOOW and if they don't get it they'll hold their breath until they pass out.

holding my breath for over a year, still able of holding my breath for a Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong
period of time

someone said the BAKKT site with launch dates was a false site or something....
and they never had a serious launch date ...?

True, there was a fake Bakkt website (bakktplatform.io) claiming Bakkt would launch on March 12th but I don't think it's online anymore.

Still it's weird that something that big and serious is delayed over and over with announcements keeping us on our toes like that.
It's either completely unprofessional or completely purposeful.

If anything, it wasn't about market manipulation but keeping their suitors interested. Right before they missed their January deadline, they finished an investment round for like $200 million in VC funding. I'm sure those angel investors were hoping Bakkt would launch ASAP.

so BAKKT is for end this year? Roll Eyes

I don’t even know, they keep bullshitting & making up delays. It’s not a very good sign for them as a business is it.

I also think as a business its not good how they handle things
For the late prices on the list ... the further delay till the end of this year the better I guess

whatever BAKKT isn't the main thing and don't care to much, it did was a nice thing to make a game around cause the launch could be anything, now i thing the higher price ranges increased their chances but still 2019 is long and we will not know what to happen
just let loyce have an easy win and call it a day.....

Either way, regardless if they launch or not, it doesnt make a lot of difference does it? From here onto the end of 2019, btc just needs any kind of reason to go back up. Bakkt or shmakkt matters very little in the long run..

Fair point, it’s likely the next bullrun will start slowly as we approach the next halving. It’s unlikely to be triggered by any single event. Those hoping for the SEC to approve an ETF will be disappointed too.

Patience is required.

Not proceeding while within the gov shutdown worries is a smart move seems like, makes me more bullish about the whole deal and smart management of its progress. No need to take an umbrella out in a thunderstorm and hope for the best, smarter to fight another day with better weather. Also that Fidelty news presuming its a successful move and seen to be one. Also just more time helps anyone who predicted a higher price by thousands then where we are now, I think that continues to help the correction by time dynamic to occur and allow for a higher eventual price on Bakkt launch
Also as time goes on I think theres a better chance of dollar index lower [Im looking for a lower high to form, putting that in on the charts can change minds] which is good for BTC, especially if it becomes a noted trend thats helping the case for lots of venture type capital prices

Looks like Fidelity will be launching its custody service before Bakkt. They'll be the first Wall Street firm to bring these services to market: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-01-29/fidelity-is-said-to-plan-march-launch-of-bitcoin-custody-service

It's probably just a matter of time before they're offering OTC brokerage services too. That would be the natural progression.

Regardless of how crazy this ended up to be (out of all events that could have delayed bakkt the gvt shutdown is probably the last thing they expected), we still have a long way before this competition ends.

As long as bakkt is definitelh launching this year, most picks around the 6-10k range are the most likely to win.

Likely the government shutdown is merely an excuse, and if they are going to launch, they would rather launch in a more hype-filled climate.

That makes sense too. The main market share of bakkt would be US investors and institutions, and those are probably one of the closest people to be affected by the shutdown. Hopefully this gets solved soon.

In other words, more government shutdown drama in 3 weeks... .. which will likely put off any BAKKT submissions and decisions. For how long? Your guess is as good as mine, but I would be surprised to see any possible meaningful BAKKT or anything like that in the next 6 months, yet maybe I am just a bit too much of a pessimist based on our recent stagnated (and even seemingly negative) ongoing BTC price performance.

Unfortunately I totally agree with you.

It was sure from the beginning it would get delayed like anything seems to be in the crypto world today, but I didn't expect it to be that challenging. Let's hope for end of 2Q '19
