BlackRock’s Chief Executive Larry Fink predicted that the trajectory of Bitcoin’s growth remains unabated no matter the victory of the US upcoming presidential elections.&nbsp; 
Fink argued that the potential for digital currencies is becoming more and more apparent, with conversations on how organizations should treat this new asset class in terms of investment management taking place. 
Larry linked Bitcoin to gold in his explanation, of how investment in this type of digital asset also falls into a category of its own. He therefore explained that it is projected that the use of digital currencies will grow bigger as the relevant technology improves.&nbsp;

Fink explained this scenario with an analogy to the development of the mortgage industry, which was a slow-paced segment of the economy until the advancements in analytics and data changed the dynamics. 
“I truly don’t believe it’s a function of regulation,” he remarked. “It’s a function of liquidity and transparency.” 
This is an interesting development since Fink has generally been ambivalent or even negative towards the prospects of cryptocurrency. In 2021, he sounded more like the critics of the crypto market, but his comments surface a different outlook.&nbsp; 
The assets that investors have been clamoring for since BlackRock was activated and whose spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) was set up functioning in March have since raised more than $23 billion. 
In that context, the viewpoint of the CEO coincides with that of analysts at Standard Chartered, who estimate that Bitcoin will be worth $200,000 by 2025 regardless of who becomes president. Moreover, both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, the candidates for the US presidency, have recently expressed supportive opinions about cryptocurrencies, which speaks about the rapid evolution of the digital asset ecosystem. 
Fink also noted that nations like India and Brazil are effectively implementing currency digitization.
