CEO Larry Fink Hints They May Take Action on Ether ETF
After the SEC’s approval, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) has been one of the products traded in the US since Thursday. IBIT accounted for about $1 billion of the ETFs’ total trading volume of $4.6 billion.

Fink Describes Bitcoin as an Asset Class That Protects People
According to Fink, money laundering and corruption problems can be solved by tokenization. Fink also said that he did not see cryptocurrencies as a kind of currency but rather as an asset class, referring to bitcoin in particular as “an asset class that protects you” from concerns over geopolitical risk.
It’s no different than what gold represented over thousands of years. Unlike gold, we’re almost at the ceiling of the amount of bitcoin that can be created.
