How much larger is BlackRock as a company compared to MicroStrategy? When I was doing my research on that, I found out that BlackRock owns 8.1% of MicroStrategy.

There is no doubt that BR is an incomparably larger company that is also globally positioned and, if I remember correctly, has offices in 30 countries and provides services in around 100 countries around the world. But it doesn't make much sense to compare BlackRock and MicroStrategy because they are two completely different business models, and Saylor is still one of the people who has the biggest influence in the company and is also completely crazy about Bitcoin.

I assume that BlackRock does not just go in this direction without having insight into the wishes of its clients, but we cannot know how much of an effect it will actually cause.

But ser, knowing BlackRock's potentially huge effect in any investment it tries to get into, do you actually believe that with their size, they would just merely be a minor player in the Bitcoin ETF Market? I personally believe they won't, but that's just a matter of opinion, I could be wrong. But just from an investment perspective, hopefully proven right. Cool
