According to CoinDesk, 21Shares Chief Investment Officer Adrian Fritz stated that the spot Bitcoin ETF continues to attract inflows, reinforcing Bitcoin's core position in institutional asset allocation, even as prices remain fluctuating below $80,000. Adrian Fritz pointed out that since the beginning of this year, Bitcoin ETFs have accumulated nearly $2 billion in funds, with sources including retail investors, institutions, and hedge fund arbitrage and options strategy trading.As traditional asset management institutions like Morgan Stanley accelerate their layouts, crypto assets are being more widely incorporated into multi-asset portfolio allocations. Bitcoin's current daily trading volume has exceeded $50 billion, and liquidity levels are approaching those of large tech stocks like Nvidia. The ETF mechanism simultaneously provides liquidity in both primary and secondary markets, gradually giving it "institutional-grade asset" attributes.Although the market is still suppressed by macro and interest rate environments, Adrian Fritz believes that ETF inflows have shifted from being driven by speculation to structural demand. He expects that with improvements in geopolitical conditions, continued inflows, and short covering, Bitcoin is likely to challenge the $100,000 mark within the year. Meanwhile, the differentiation among altcoins is intensifying, and the market is shifting towards a logic of asset selection that emphasizes fundamentals and cash flow.

According to CoinDesk, Securitize, a tokenization platform supported by BlackRock, announced a partnership with global stock transfer agent giant Computershare, allowing U.S. listed companies to issue on-chain tokenized equity (Issuer-Sponsored Tokens, ISTs) outside of the existing stock system.Under the plan, investors will have the option to hold shares through traditional securities accounts or directly hold corresponding on-chain equity assets through digital wallets. Computershare will continue to act as the transfer agent, responsible for managing shareholder registries, dividend distributions, and handling corporate actions such as stock splits.Reports indicate that the core of this structure is to avoid the common "wrapped shares" model found in the traditional crypto market. Unlike derivative tokens that only represent a claim to shares, ISTs will directly represent real equity ownership, rather than a mapping certificate of off-chain stocks.Carlos Domingo stated that ISTs are not derivatives built on existing stocks, but rather allow U.S. issuers to create real equity directly in token form.Data shows that Computershare currently serves over 25,000 companies and acts as the transfer agent for about 58% of S&P 500 companies. The market believes that this collaboration signifies that blockchain infrastructure is gradually entering the backend system of the core U.S. securities market, which may further promote the on-chain settlement, equity registration, and asset circulation of U.S. stocks.
