BlackRock CEO Larry Fink believes Bitcoin's future remains strong and independent of political figures like Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. He emphasizes that Bitcoin, as its own asset class, transcends global politics and will continue to grow regardless of the 2024 election outcome.
Bitcoin Unaffected by Trump or Harris, Says BlackRock’s Fink
Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, the biggest asset manager in the world, has stated that the 2024 election, which is receiving a lot of attention from the crypto business, would not significantly affect Bitcoin.
This is due to the fact that Bitcoin is its own asset class, which also has the potential to transcend global politics, according to Fink.
Bitcoin: Its Own Asset Class Beyond Politics
While BlackRock was holding its earnings call for the third quarter of 2024, Fink made the following statement:
“I’m not sure if either President or other candidate would make a difference. I do believe the utilization of digital assets is going to become more and more of a reality worldwide.”
Fink went on to say that the continued use of cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, will not be dependent on legislation but rather on liquidity and exposure.
Crypto Growth Linked to Liquidity, Not Legislation

An Oct. 14 study by CoinGecko linked the substantial increase in prediction market volume to rising bets in the run-up to the US elections. The research stated:
“Prediction markets picked up steam in 2024 Q3, growing 565.4% due to pundits betting on the upcoming US elections.”
