BlackRock has highlighted Bitcoin as a key investment focus for the year 2025. On its iShares platform, the asset manager groups this digital currency alongside Treasury bills and the prominent Magnificent Seven technology stocks.
Since introducing its iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF in January, BlackRock has established itself as a significant participant in the Bitcoin market. This fund has grown to become the largest spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund available in the United States.
The latest figures reveal that BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF manages assets totaling $68 billion. Since its launch, it has seen net inflows close to $63 billion, reflecting strong investor interest.
Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, noted that sovereign wealth funds are increasingly investing in Bitcoin. This trend indicates a move away from short-term speculative trading toward strategic, long-term holdings driven by clear investment objectives.
