Asset manager BlackRock<\/a> sent a 9-page document<\/a> to its clients on Sept. 18 that portrays Bitcoin (BTC<\/a>) as a “unique diversifier” for portfolios.<\/p>\n

The document highlighted the characteristics that make Bitcoin distinct from traditional asset classes on any long-term basis and suggested a “modest allocation.”<\/p>\n

Although BTC moves with equities in the short term, as happened in early August with the Yen carry trade, which caused BTC to crash 7% in one day, BlackRock analysts highlighted that Bitcoin was quick to rebound to previous price levels.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the document stated that Bitcoin cannot be labeled as a risk-on or risk-off asset under most traditional finance frameworks, given its characteristics as a global, decentralized, and non-sovereign asset with a fixed supply.<\/p>\n

Uncorrelated and extraordinary returns<\/h2>\n

BlackRock proceeded to explain to new investors the story of how Bitcoin was created, the dynamics of its fixed supply, and its path to a $1 trillion market cap.<\/p>\n

The document pointed out that BTC has outperformed major asset classes in seven out of the last 10 years. It also highlighted the over 100% annualized return that Bitcoin gave investors over this period, calling it “extraordinary.”<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the document highlighted Bitcoin\u2019s resilience to recover from major corrections despite its volatility, stating:<\/p>\n

\u201cThis performance was achieved despite Bitcoin also being the worst performing asset in the other three of those 10 years, with four drawdowns in excess of 50%. Through these historical cycles, it has shown an ability to recover from such drawdowns and reach new highs, despite these extended bear market periods.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The document also reiterated that Bitcoin has no statistical correlation with equities in the long term, even though the relationship spikes in the short term.<\/p>\n

Flight to safety<\/h2>\n

BlackRock also told its investors that Bitcoin is largely unaffected by critical macro risk because it is a decentralized and non-sovereign monetary alternative.\u00a0These macro “black swan” events include banking system crises, sovereign debt crises, currency debasement, and geopolitical disruption.<\/p>\n

The document reiterated BlackRock CEO Larry Fink's<\/a> remarks from October 2023, when he stated that a BTC rally at the time was a “flight to quality.”<\/p>\n

Additionally, it explained that Bitcoin could be used as a hedge against possible US dollar instability, as federal debt and deficit fears make alternative reserve assets more appealing to investors.<\/p>\n

Despite the various compliments on Bitcoin\u2019s characteristics and strengths, BlackRock analysts said that Bitcoin is still a risky asset on its own. They added that the risks are not just related to volatility but also to regulatory uncertainties and its underlying technology.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, in a traditional \u201c60\/40 portfolio\u201d divided between equities and bonds, the document suggested that modest allocations to Bitcoin can enhance risk-adjusted returns, while larger allocations may increase volatility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
