  1. tldr; BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, has acquired nearly $6 billion in cryptocurrencies since the start of 2026, with total crypto holdings reaching $81.4 billion as of January 20. Bitcoin constitutes 87% of the portfolio, while Ethereum makes up 13%, alongside minor stakes in other cryptocurrencies. Recent purchases include 195 BTC and 4,534 ETH. Although inflows are increasing, the pace of accumulation has slowed compared to the same period in 2025. The accumulation aligns with positive trends in the broader ETF market.

  2. It’s a fucking ETF 🤦‍♂️

    Customers buy = BlackRock buys

    Customers sell = BlackRock sells

    It’s not rocket science.
