Recent global financial landscape has undergone significant changes. Following North American major banks sequentially recognizing Bitcoin as collateral and Asian pension funds increasing their holdings of MicroStrategy, there is also major news coming from Latin America.

Brazil's largest private bank Itaú recently advised all investors that up to 3% of their assets can be allocated to Bitcoin. This is not an isolated experiment by individual banks but a trend sweeping across the globe.

From a geographical perspective, the route of this asset allocation migration has become quite clear:

North America is led by giants like JPMorgan and Citibank, gradually opening Bitcoin collateral loan channels and providing trading liquidity. Asian trillion-dollar pension funds are directly taking action, purchasing crypto-related assets with real money. South American financial institutions are following suit, officially incorporating Bitcoin into standard asset allocation models.

On-chain data also confirms this trend. Recently, hundreds of millions of dollars have flowed from exchanges to professional staking platforms, with investors beginning to participate in crypto-native yield strategies.

These changes point to a core fact: Bitcoin and crypto assets are gradually moving from "marginal speculative tools" into the credit systems and core asset frameworks of traditional finance. Banks, pension funds, private banks, and other financial power centers are already fully involved. When these giants evolve from self-configuration to recommending to clients, market turning points are often near.
