Quick Facts:
1️⃣ BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF IBIT surpassed $100B less than two years after its release on January 11, 2024. 2️⃣ Larry Fink announced a long-term plan to tokenize all assets, from funds to stocks and cash. 3️⃣ Fink argues that bubbles don’t impact long-term investors and that time in the market outweighs opportunistic buy-ins. 4️⃣ Bitcoin’s Layer 2 project, Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) reaches $23.9M in presale and eyes a Q1 2026 release.
BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) just surpassed $100B in assets under management (AUM), which prompted CEO Larry Fink to announce the company’s tokenization plans.
Fink made the comments during a CNBC interview, where he said:
I do believe we’re just at the beginning of tokenization of all assets, from real estate to equities to bonds, across the board.
Fink believes that asset tokenization is imminent and the key step to attracting digital investors into the TradFi market, which pack more unpopular products like retirement funds.
The overarching goal is to allow investors to hold multiple assets together, including funds, cash, and cryptos, which would represent a turning point for the capital market as a whole.
To that end, Fink pushes for ‘time in the market,’ as opposed to opportunistic buy-ins, as an anti-bubble strategy. As he sees it, it’s only opportunistic buyers who push the notion of financial bubbles due to their short time in the market.
This doesn’t happen with long-term investors who ride the bubbles to follow the larger trend.
If you put money to work on January 1st, 2000, a year later you had the Dot Com crysis, six years later you had the financial crisis, you had the COVID crysis; you still would’ve made 8% compound interest over the entire 25 years.
It’s not about if our markets are going up or down […] it’s about being in the market for the entire cycle.
Especially with Bitcoin Hyper just around the corner.
Hyper relies on tools like the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) and the Canonical Bridge to change that.
Once the Bitcoin Relay Program confirms incoming transactions in milliseconds, the Bridge then mints the bitcoins on the Hyper layer, allowing you to use the wrapped assets with near-instant finality within the Layer 2 ecosystem.
Long-term, Hyper aims to turn Bitcoin into a more feasible option for institutional investors by making the network faster, cheaper, and more scalable.
The project is seeing outstanding investor support, managing to reach $23.9M since its beginning and it’s still growing fast.
$HYPER is available right now at the presale price of $0.013125, which could be the lowest you could ever buy the token at.
Long-term investments, remember?
