The profile of investors interested in cryptocurrency markets is evolving over the years. We can now say that the peak of this interest has been reached. The CEO of the world’s largest asset manager made comments about the future following his struggle for a spot Bitcoin ETF, which also affected popular altcoins in his field.
BlackRock CEO and Altcoins
Managing over 10 trillion dollars in assets, BlackRock has a significant number of investments worldwide. They have approval for 546 different ETFs, one of which is for Bitcoin, and another potentially for ETH if approved. However, Larry Fink touched on a more significant issue in his latest interview, stating that the RWA field would become even more critical with a Spot BTC ETF.
The tokenization of real-world assets has been gaining extra popularity since October. We have seen massive increases in altcoins like LINK and TRB Coin as a result. It’s worth noting that ventures without massive engineering feats, such as Floki Inu, have also started their own RWA initiatives.
There’s a significant issue here because the RWA field requires extreme technical proficiency and openness to development. We’re talking about something a bit more complex than issuing meme coins. Chainlink is almost monopolizing this area, but the technology infrastructure is not under its sole control. Even though it’s the best and first, we’ve witnessed millions of bond tokens being issued on the Ethereum network.
Why Is LINK Coin Rising?
Just a few minutes ago, the LINK Coin price reached its daily peak of $15.24, experiencing an increase of over 6%. If we continue to see exciting comments from BlackRock’s CEO and others about the RWA field, we can assume this upward trend will continue.
LINK Coin‘s deal with Swift and many other massive partnerships have turned into a fantastic advertising campaign. With CCIP, Chainlink has shown that this is not just for show and continues to work with more major companies on technology exports.
All this is great, but what’s important for investors is the price, so let’s briefly look at that too. The downtrend of 2022 is now showing signs of a reversal. If the price can sustain above the $18-18.5 region, it could reach new peaks between $28 and $52.
Perhaps new updates related to Swift and other partnerships, along with significant steps to be taken with the stake pool, could push LINK Coin’s price to $50 by the middle of this year.
