BlackRock CEO Announces Bitcoin Surpasses $100 Billion as Fastest-Growing ETF in History

BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF, IBIT, has officially surpassed $100 billion in assets under management, making it the fastest-growing ETF ever recorded, according to CEO Larry Fink during a live interview on CNBC.

“Two years ago, we had zero dollars in this space,” Fink said. “Now, Bitcoin is not only a financial asset — it’s a part of global portfolios.”

This milestone underscores BlackRock’s accelerating commitment to digital assets. The firm’s Bitcoin holdings currently stand at 804,944 BTC, worth around $89 billion at current market prices. At Bitcoin’s recent peak, that figure briefly topped $100 billion, representing 3.833% of the total supply.

The only comparable corporate holder remains Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), which owns 640,250 BTC, or roughly 3.05% of total supply.

Beyond Bitcoin, BlackRock is expanding its reach into Ethereum and tokenized assets, with over $17.3 billion in ETH exposure and multiple blockchain integration pilots under its “Tokenize Everything” initiative.

Fink emphasized that tokenization could soon extend beyond crypto into traditional markets like real estate, bonds, and equities. “The world is moving toward transparency and efficiency — tokenization delivers both,” he added.

With $4.1 trillion now held in digital wallets globally, BlackRock’s strategy aims to bridge retail liquidity with institutional-grade instruments, merging crypto adoption with long-term wealth infrastructure.

Next Record Breaker is Getting Ready on Binance Smart Chain

Minotaurus (MTAUR) is what early-stage looks like before headlines catch on. It’s already accumulated 2.79M USDT out of its 6.44M USDT target, with the next stage in under nine hours — and every tier locks a higher price. Miss one, lose 61% upside.

Unlike hype coins, MTAUR actually powers a live maze game on BNB Chain — tokens get spent for zones, upgrades, and consumables. That means demand is real, not theoretical.

Audited by SolidProof and Coinsult, KYC done, liquidity locked — the structure’s already built.

At 0.0001246 USDT, 10,000 MTAUR costs barely 1.24 USDT. If it mirrors XRP’s +107,000% historic run, that turns 1.24 USDT into 1,300 USDT. Scale that to 100 USDT or 1,000 USDT, and you can do the math.The counter’s already moving — literally. You can watch it at official Minotaurus website, but if you plan to act, do it before the clock resets the price.
