【Blockchain Rhythm】 Recently, there has been an interesting development. A life insurance company in Delaware has partnered with BlackRock to launch a fixed indexed annuity product that includes Bitcoin exposure. Their 12% balanced risk index fund is quite innovative — combining traditional US stock allocations with Bitcoin, specifically through the iShares Core S&P 500 ETF and iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF.

This reflects a larger trend. Institutional investors’ enthusiasm for spot Bitcoin ETFs continues to grow, and it’s no longer just sporadic testing. From traditional financial institutions like insurance companies adjusting their investment strategies, it’s clear that Bitcoin’s role in asset allocation is quietly changing. This not only indicates that Bitcoin’s liquidity and compliance channels are becoming more mature but also reveals a reassessment by institutions of the long-term value of crypto assets.

honestly this is just legacy finance finally catching up to what we already knew... the "trustless" part was always the real innovation, not the btc itself lol

Traditional finance has compromised. Insurance companies are starting to hold Bitcoin. What does this indicate? Institutions are really scared.
