The news that the owners of the New York Stock Exchange – the Intercontinental Exchange – has teamed up with Microsoft, BCG, Starbucks and other firms to launch the Bakkt company that will push Bitcoin and other digital assets towards becoming mainstream financial asset, has come at an opportune time in the crypto-verse. The news came during a time period when the crypto-markets lacked the momentum to get out of the current bear trend. Although the news came late on Friday, there is indeed hope in the crypto-marekts.

"Starbucks are going to allow you to take your crypto and effectively load up a US Dollar card with it. We do not have a problem with that payment system here in the US.
