#比特币价格预测 Seeing the suggestion from Brazil's Itaú Bank, my first reaction is—another signal of institutional entry. The 3% ratio may seem conservative, but don’t underestimate its significance.



Looking back to 2017, during that bull market, no one dared to say this. Institutions either fully bet on it or completely bet against it; few could calmly recommend such a allocation. Now, from Grayscale to Ark Invest to central bank reserves around the world, this "small proportion, long-term holding" approach has become the standard move for mainstream institutions.

What level of player is Itaú? Brazil’s largest private bank, managing assets in the hundreds of billions of dollars. When such an institution begins advising investors to allocate to Bitcoin, what does it mean? It indicates that Bitcoin has evolved from a "risk asset" to a "alternative asset class" option.

History shows that whenever mainstream financial institutions start doing this, it often signals that a key turning point in a cycle is approaching. During the period when PayPal entered in 2020 and MicroStrategy increased its holdings, many people hesitated, but we’ve seen the subsequent trend.

However, there is a detail worth reflecting on—this 3% cap. It’s not greed; it’s a genuine risk management logic of institutions. It tells us a clear fact: even the most optimistic institutions never put all their chips into a single asset. This rational allocation strategy precisely indicates that Bitcoin is shifting from a "speculative target" to an "asset allocation tool."

From a cyclical perspective, official recommendations from such major banks often trigger a chain reaction.
