[BlackRock: Bitcoin's characteristics may make it a hedging tool for risks that traditional assets cannot cope with] Golden Finance reported that BlackRock released the report "Bitcoin: A Unique Diversifier", which analyzed the role of Bitcoin in the investment portfolio, especially emphasizing its potential as a unique asset for diversified investment. The main points are as follows: 1. Bitcoin is described as a "global, decentralized, non-sovereign asset with a fixed supply", which makes it fundamentally different from traditional financial assets. In its 15-year history, Bitcoin's adoption rate has continued to grow, but due to its high volatility and relatively short history, discussions about its role in investment portfolios continue. 2. Low-correlation assets: Bitcoin's long-term performance shows low correlation with stocks and bonds, which makes it attractive for diversified investment. Although in the short term, Bitcoin's price movements occasionally synchronize with traditional risky assets, these are considered temporary phenomena. 3. Volatility and risk: Bitcoin is considered a risky asset due to its high volatility and susceptibility to regulatory changes, market sentiment and technological development. However, these risks are unique to Bitcoin, whose decentralized nature shields it from many of the macroeconomic forces that affect traditional assets. 4. Long-term value: The article emphasizes that the value of Bitcoin may grow as global monetary instability, fiscal sustainability, and geopolitical tensions increase. Its fixed supply and decentralized, borderless nature may drive future demand. 5. Impact on portfolios: When Bitcoin is included in a portfolio at a moderate proportion, it has shown the potential to enhance diversified investment. However, a larger proportion of allocation may significantly increase the volatility of the portfolio. The report's conclusion reiterates that Bitcoin's unique characteristics may make it a hedging tool for risks that traditional assets cannot cope with, especially in the context of increased geopolitical and economic uncertainty.
