BlackRock recommends adding bitcoin to portfolios
BlackRock has recommended that investors allocate 1 to 2 percent of their portfolios to bitcoin, presenting a balance between improving returns and managing risk through diversification. The guidance, presented by Michael Gates, head of portfolio management for BlackRock’s model portfolios, says a small allocation can influence performance without driving day-to-day risk. BlackRock cited its iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) as an implementation tool.

Bitcoin spot ETFs\' inflow streak ends as failure to reclaim $80,000 adds uncertainty
U.S.-listed bitcoin spot exchange-traded funds recorded a net outflow of $263 million, ending a nine-session streak of inflows. Bitcoin slipped below $77,000 and failed to reclaim $80,000. Outflows were concentrated in major products, led by Fidelity’s FBTC. Ethereum spot ETFs also saw outflows, while no new money entered XRP or Solana spot ETFs. An analysis cited forced liquidations in derivatives markets as a key driver of the recent drop.

Swiss bank Signum says institutional adoption matters more than Bitcoin spot ETF flows
Bitcoin is increasingly being treated on Wall Street as a core portfolio holding rather than a short-term trading vehicle, according to comments attributed to Sygnum Bank\'s chief investment officer Fabian Dori. He said a focus on daily inflows and outflows in spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds can obscure a broader structural shift, as institutions such as pension funds, endowments, sovereign wealth funds and insurers begin to treat Bitcoin as a standard allocation and integrate it into asset-allocation frameworks.
