Remember that Wall Street big shot who called Bitcoin a "criminal tool"? This time, he's had to eat his words.

BlackRock's boss, Larry Fink, publicly admitted he was wrong at the New York Times DealBook Summit a few days ago, right in front of a group of reporters:
"In 2017, I said Bitcoin was for thieves... In hindsight, I was shortsighted."

Wow, that's a U-turn as sharp as a roller coaster brake. 💀

A few years ago, he was adamant that Bitcoin was just a money-laundering tool. And now? The Bitcoin ETF pushed by BlackRock has become the company's "hottest cash cow"—with net inflows topping $52 billion in its first year, leaving all other newly launched ETFs in the past decade in the dust.

The numbers speak for themselves—so directly.

Larry himself admitted:
"Every year I talk to countless clients and government leaders, and naturally, my views evolve."
Translation: the market votes with its money, and I get the message.

But he still threw in some classic old-school advice at the end:
"It's fine to allocate some crypto assets for diversification, but don't bet your entire fortune on it."

Honestly, this is pretty interesting:
The top giants of traditional finance, who once scoffed at crypto, are now embracing it tighter than anyone.
This isn't just the transformation of one person—it's more like a snapshot of the whole institutional world’s changing attitude toward crypto—from cautiously probing the edges to fully entering the game.

Bitcoin is no longer some "niche toy."
When asset management giants are starting to bow their heads, are you still just watching from the sidelines?

Of course, that reminder from the big shot is also true: allocate rationally, don’t get carried away.
