BlackRock Clients Want Bitcoin
In a recent interview with CNBC, BlackRock’s Jay Jacobs shared how the firm’s clients are pivoting towards Bitcoin amid rising global uncertainties. Jacobs was asked about the importance of Bitcoin as the newest tool of safe trading, to which he responded that Bitcoin is now gaining momentum as a new diversification tool for our clients.
“Well, we are seeing a lot of advisors have started that educational journey around what Bitcoin is. And what role it could play in portfolios. I think what really spurred this along is a few things. One thing is the their clients have now started asking about Bitcoin. Particularly millennial clients who have been digital asset natives. And then secondly, in this environment we have global uncertainty. There’s more interest in assets that behave differently from traditional assets like Gold. Unlike Bitcoin, which is more of a diversifier in a portfolio.”

What Is Bitcoin’s Current Price Target?
Bitcoin is now slowly becoming a leading asset class, being touted as a safe haven asset similar to gold. In addition to this, several Analysts have already predicted Bitcoin crossing $150K sooner rather than later.
In one such prediction, notable American entrepreneur Grand Cardone has predicted how BTC will surge and cross $250K by the end of 2025. Cardone added how he believes BTC can easily surge past $500K in the next two or three years.
“I think before the end of this year, we’ll see $250k. I think we see $500k BTC in the next 2-3 years.”
