Recently, there is a major news—U.S. banks have unprecedentedly officially recommended to clients to include cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin in their investment portfolios, with allocation ratios even reaching 4%. This is truly a turning point in the traditional financial circle.

In simple terms, this means Wall Street is starting to seriously consider digital assets like BTC and SOL. The analysts at Bank of America provided very practical reasons: the liquidity and maturity of the crypto market are continuously improving, and it now has the potential to hedge inflation and optimize investment portfolios. Under controlled risk conditions, allocating some digital assets can help boost long-term returns.

What does this signal mean? It indicates that the attitude of the mainstream financial system is truly changing. In the future, more institutional funds are likely to flow into this field, driving the entire market toward a more professional and compliant direction. For retail investors, it may also be a sign that market maturity and acceptance are both increasing.

BTC0,06%

SOL1,15%

Wall Street is really about to get involved, a 4% allocation isn't that much. Wait, Bank of America said the risk is controllable, but why do I feel Bitcoin has been so volatile lately? So should I start buying the dip now or continue to watch... With institutional funds coming in, do retail investors still have a chance to profit? Haha Now that it's mainstream accepted, the next step probably depends on regulatory approval, right? It looks like a major cycle is coming, I'm a bit tempted.

Bank of America has really woken up. Allocating 4% to Bitcoin—does this mean traditional finance truly recognizes us now?

Wall Street is really starting to panic, it's time to give traditional assets some blood transfusions haha Bank of America’s move is so iconic, big institutions entering the market is just a matter of time 4% allocation sounds small, but it’s actually a breakthrough, and it will get even more intense later Mainstream recognition doesn’t mean the bottom, but it’s definitely the start of a new phase This move can really help retail investors avoid pitfalls, the mechanism is more完善 Wait, is Bank of America genuinely recommending this or is it just a public opinion prelude before cutting the leeks? Actually, it’s just due to high inflation pressure, they also have to bet on non-traditional assets

Haha, Bank of America is starting to play with cryptocurrencies, Wall Street really can't sit still anymore. 4% allocation may not sound like much, but it's a signal, brother. Institutions are entering the market, and retail investors need to seize this opportunity. This time is really different, compliance is coming. Wait a minute, could it be another scheme to harvest retail investors?

Wall Street has finally woken up. Bank of America recommends a 4% allocation? Now institutional funds are about to enter the market. Bank of America is right; BTC indeed deserves some allocation, but 4% is still too conservative. Wait, does this mean Coinbase and others are about to take off? Institutional approval is one thing, but retail investors still need to be cautious. Don't fall for the tricks. Compliance is easier to talk about than to implement; it's still a long way to go. It's good to be optimistic, but don't be brainwashed by media hype. Do your homework. Should ETH follow the trend now? I'm a bit worried about altcoins getting cut.

Bank of America officially announces 4% Bitcoin allocation, now Wall Street is truly respectful, the wind is rising Honestly, it should have been like this a long time ago. When the institutional army arrives, retail investors will still have a chance? This is a signal of the system admitting defeat, how cool is that
