[BlackRock Head of Digital Assets: Macro Environment Enhancing Bitcoin's Store of Value Appeal] Deep Tide TechFlow reports that on August 27, BlackRock's Head of Digital Assets, Robbie Mitchnick, stated that U.S. fiscal debt and deficit levels are becoming major market concerns. When related risks come back into focus, assets like Bitcoin and gold often benefit. He believes Bitcoin's recent performance compared to the stock and bond markets further highlights its unique appeal as an emerging store of value asset. BlackRock's spot Bitcoin ETF, IBIT, reached a trading volume of 439.5 million shares last week, marking the highest "up week" record since its launch in January 2024. During the same period, IBIT's price rose 22.59% to $43.68, with a net inflow of $1.33 billion. Net inflows for the month have risen to $2.64 billion. This performance is seen as reflecting sustained institutional buying rather than short-term speculative behavior.
