BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust accumulated over $25 billion in assets within its first year of trading, making it one of the most successful ETF launches in history [1]. Fidelity, Invesco, and Franklin Templeton followed close behind. The money moved. The institutions arrived. And somewhere in that migration, you might want to ask yourself: did the revolution just get a corner office? #BitcoinETF #BlackRock #InstitutionalAdoption #CryptoRegulation #IBIT #DigitalEuro

The retail crypto adoption wave that DeFi maximalists predicted would come through self-custody and permissionless protocols is actually arriving through the most centralized, permissioned channel imaginable: your local bank branch. #CryptoAdoption #TradFi #BNPParibas #CryptoETN #MiCA #RWATokenization
