PANews reported on February 28 that Eric Balchunas, an ETF analyst at Bloomberg, wrote on the X platform: "We heard that BlackRock has added $IBIT (BlackRock Bitcoin ETF) to one of their smaller model portfolios. Although this is only a small part of the allocation in alternative asset classes, this is the first time they have included it in any model portfolio, so it is worth paying attention to, similar to a test of the waters."
