BlackRock의 비트코인 ETF는 새로운 ETF 기록을 세우며 전례 없는 유입을 이끌어내고 비트코인에 대한 접근성을 높였습니다. BlackRock의 디지털 자산 부문 책임자인 Robbie Mitchnick이 이러한 변화의 배경을 설명합니다.

BlackRock의 비트코인 ETF(이후 이더리움 현물 ETF) 출시는 기록을 새로 쓰며 대규모 유입을 이끌어내고 기관 암호화폐 채택에 대한 인식을 재정립했습니다.
BlackRock 디지털 자산 부문 책임자 Robbie Mitchnick이 이 획기적인 변화의 이야기를 풀어냅니다. 그는 회의에서 성공으로의 여정, BlackRock ETF가 시장에 미친 영향, 예상치 못했던 놀라운 점들을 공유합니다.
또한 그는 비트코인이 위험 자산으로 오해받는 이유, 이더리움에 대한 투자 사례, 2025년 암호화폐의 향후 전망 등을 설명합니다.

세계 최대 자산 관리자 BlackRock이 암호화폐를 주류로 만든 방법

비트코인 채굴자들은 최근 몇 주 동안 그들의 보유량을 적극적으로 줄이고 있습니다. 이는 코인의 가격이 중요한 <$100,000> 마크 아래에서 계속 머물고 있기 때문입니다. 보도 시점에서 선두 코인은 <$98,535>에 거래되고 있습니다.

암호화폐 시장은 비트코인 대비 다른 자산의 가격이 급등하는 시기인 임박한 올트코인 시즌의 징조를 보이고 있습니다. 시장 참여자들은 종종 <라이트코인(LTC)>, <알위브(AR)>, <Gains Network(GNS)>, <렌(Ren)>, <비트(Bit)>와 같은 다른 자산에 초점을 맞추게 됩니다. <인터컨티넨탈 거래소>와 같은 거래소에서 이러한 움직임이 관찰되고 있습니다.
