He attributed this shift to extensive dialogue with thousands of BlackRock's clients. Fink admitted that he was wrong about Bitcoin in the past and now stands firm as a strong believer in the asset. His public acknowledgment underscores the growing acceptance of Bitcoin in traditional finance, driven by increasing institutional demand and clarity. $BTC
