BlackRock's Mitchnick: "Flows Are Back In A Big Way" As Bitcoin ETFs Shift To Institutional Hands
Briefly

At the Token2049 conference in Dubai, BlackRock’s Robert Mitchnick shared insights about the robust capital flow into spot Bitcoin ETFs, highlighting a shift in investor dynamics from retail to institutional participation. Mitchnick noted retail investor holdings are declining while institutional investments rise, suggesting a longer adoption cycle for institutions. The demand for Bitcoin is driven by macroeconomic uncertainties, as it is increasingly perceived as a safe haven during periods of market distress, reinforcing sentiments shared by BlackRock CEO Larry Fink regarding Bitcoin's potential value in uncertain times.
The flows are back in a big way, and every quarter, the percentage held by retail clients has gone down while institutional investment has increased.
Bitcoin thrives when you have more uncertainty. In times of market distress or geopolitical instability, investors seek assets not tied to any single country.
