Traditional finance is shifting more dramatically than expected.

Seeing the world's top asset management giants withdraw nearly $600 million worth of Bitcoin and Ethereum from a major exchange within three days, I realized that the nature of this market has changed. It's no longer small-scale testing or experimentation, but a clear signal that large institutions are fully betting on crypto assets. The world's largest asset management firms are voting with real funds, and Bitcoin's status as "digital gold" has now gained institutional recognition.

And the wealth opportunities of 2026 are being opened by these traditional capital players themselves.

**Institutions Accelerate Deployment, Bitcoin Enters a Scale Era**

Looking at the specific numbers makes it clear. Through its Bitcoin trust product, this giant has accumulated over 662,500 Bitcoins, accounting for more than 3% of the total Bitcoin supply. At current prices, this asset exceeds $70 billion.

How fast is this growth? The trust product reached a management scale of $70 billion in just 341 days, while traditional gold ETFs took over 1,600 trading days to reach the same size. This is the fastest-growing ETF in history.

The scale of institutional Bitcoin holdings has already surpassed most centralized exchanges. From an original holding perspective, only the early network creators' approximately 1.1 million Bitcoins exceed institutional holdings, but this gap is gradually being filled.

So the question is: why are traditional finance players suddenly so enthusiastic about Bitcoin?

The answer is quite straightforward. The logic for large institutions is: tolerate Bitcoin's volatility in exchange for the potential upside it offers. They are redefining Bitcoin as a strategic asset allocation rather than a speculative tool. In an environment of increasing macro uncertainty, the "safe-haven asset" label for Bitcoin is also being re-evaluated.

This is not just a change at the capital level but a fundamental shift in the financial system's perception of digital assets. The large-scale entry of institutions means Bitcoin is moving from the fringe to the mainstream, from a niche asset to a must-have on fund managers' lists.
