Bitcoin has come a long way in 17 years. It’s now a distinct asset class and institutions are figuring out exactly where it fits in portfolios.
With the classic 60/40 portfolio struggling and the S&P 500 propped up by a handful of tech stocks, Bitcoin is becoming the go to diversifier.
BlackRock now frames Bitcoin as long term financial infrastructure rather than speculation. Their Aladdin system, the risk engine managing ~$25 trillion, acts as the gatekeeper for global capital.
Adding 3% Bitcoin has historically boosted 60/40 returns from 9.4% to 14.6% (Fidelity data). In addition, ~35% of the S&P 500 sits in a few names.
Bitcoin offers diversification tied to geopolitics and currency debasement, not corporate earnings.
This is a game changer for long term planning and for Bitcoin.
