In an interview with CNBC’s Squawk Box this morning, BlackRock executive Rick Rieder said the company has “started to dabble” in Bitcoin.
The statement essentially reaffirms what’s already been clear for some time: BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, has had a long courtship with crypto. And while it’s still a long way from offering something like a BitcoinBitcoin fund, there have been signs of adoption over the past few months.
In December, the company posted an open position for a “Vice President, Blockchain Lead,” suggesting new interest in cryptocurrencies.
And in SEC filings last month, BlackRock suggested that it may include Bitcoin futures in some of its funds, much to the delight of crypto industry executives.
Rieder seemed relatively optimistic about Bitcoin on the whole. “My sense is the technology has evolved and the regulation has evolved to the point where a number of people find it should be part of the portfolio,” he said.
“Crypto, generally, has gotten the imagination of a lot of people.”

The take isn’t new for Rieder, who made a similar statement on Squawk Box back in November. "I think cryptocurrency is here to stay," he said. “I think digital currency and the receptivity—particularly Millennial receptivity—of technology and cryptocurrency is real.”

The private boarding school has a number of international students. To "manage and mitigate risk," the school said it would start accepting the biggest cryptocurrency in phases, and would convert digital coins rec...
BlackRock’s spot digital asset-focused funds generated net inflows for a fifth consecutive quarter, but the value of those assets tumbled by 9% as the price of Bitcoin and Ethereum slumped, the company said in its latest earnings release. As of March 31, the world’s largest asset manager held $50.3 billion worth in ETF digital assets, about $5 billion less than in the previous quarter, according to the release. Still, among asset managers, BlackRock remained the leader in inflows with the iShare...
Ripple Labs and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission have jointly filed a request to suspend their respective appeals as they “pursue a negotiated resolution” of their long-running case. As detailed in a filing submitted yesterday to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, the two parties have already reached an agreement-in-principle, with Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse revealing last month that the SEC would be dropping its appeal. Yesterday’s application represents the first of...
