POSITIVE IMPACT
Bitcoin's price was mentioned as trading at $44,515, up 3.91% in the last 24 hours. This indicates a positive short-term price movement for Bitcoin.
The mention of Bitcoin's price and its recent increase in the context of Bakkt's financial troubles suggests a decoupling of Bitcoin's market performance from Bakkt's operational challenges.
