BlackRock’s Larry Fink presents a compelling vision for the future of finance in his 2025 annual letter, highlighting the growing role of cryptocurrencies. The launch of iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) ETF attracted $50 billion in assets under management within a year, showcasing the increasing investment interest. Fink predicts that if sovereign wealth funds dedicate 2-5% of their portfolios to Bitcoin, its price could soar, reaching $500,000-$700,000. 2025 will see BlackRock moving away from traditional 60/40 portfolio allocation, embracing a new model with 50% stocks, 30% bonds, and 20% private assets like infrastructure and real estate. This reflects Fink’s belief in the expanding influence of private markets and digital assets in modern investment strategies.
