BlackRock CEO Larry Fink Calls Crypto An Alternative To Tough Investment In The Modern Era
JAKARTA - In a world full of uncertainty due to recent geopolitical tensions that have affected various sectors including finance. Crypto is considered a formidable investment instrument.
Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, a leading investment management company with assets worth 10 trillion US dollars (equivalent to Rp157 quadrillion), recently gave his positive views on cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin.
In an interview with Fox Business, Fink stated that he sees crypto as an asset class that is parallel to "flight to safety" investments such as gold and US government bonds. This means that in an unstable economic condition, crypto, especially Bitcoin, can be an option for investors.
This statement was made amid rumors about approval of Bitcoin's ETF proposal, which is believed to have affected Bitcoin rallies recently. Fink also believes that cryptocurrencies will play an important role in escaping to quality assets in uncertain situations such as Israel's ongoing conflict.
