Blackrock is selling shares and accumulating BTC on a daily basis in order to back up client claims to the shares that are supposed to be pegged to the BTC price. Even though Blackrock owns the coins they have fiduciary duties to their clients..and those are supposed to be legally enforceable duties, yet a lot of BIG companies are used to engaging in a variety of manipulations of markets and even getting profits over their clients in ways that are sometimes quite questionable, but legally acceptable.. and surely I would not put it past Blackrock to be continuing to manipulate clients and also manipulate bitcoin in whatever ways that they are able to do so and get away with it, including that sometimes they make money by being the BIGGEST player (bully) within various sectors that they can sometimes play off of one another when having such large stakes..
BlackRock is buying a lot of Bitcoin. That makes some people worried. A company that is big could easily mess with the price of Bitcoin, even if they're not breaking any laws. They have to look after their customers' money, but they could also be making money for themselves at the same time. We need to make sure they're doing the right thing.
I never suggested that people should not be worried about Blackrock. Bitcoin is supposed to be made for attacks, but yeah, you never know - some of these companies are experts on ways to make money in a variety of creative unscrupulous ways, and I am not sure if that means that they are going to throw bitcoin under the bus, even if they were able to throw bitcoin under the bus.
BlackRock are also accumulating bitcoin just like other Big financial companies, but as a small investor, its essential to stay vigilant about these big players like BlackRock etc in the market. They are always looking to profit, at times there will always be an untrustworthy moves by these bigger entity to manipulate and create uncertainties in the market for their gains. Although Bitcoin is designed to withstand attacks and no matter the string they pull or uncertainties they create. Smaller investor need to be focus on long term and stay optimistic on the potentials of bitcoin, its important for bitcoin accumulators to stay invested and not get swayed into selling during market fluctuations.
If we are investing because we always look forward on what this companies do then provably that we cannot sustain our investment especially if they decide to sell their asset and take profits. Since for sure that every action they made affect us. That's why better to invest according to your knowledge and also don't buy those hyping they made. Just be consistent on your own accumulation and don't try to catch anything they say since provably that they are just manipulating the mind of people.
As you said its really better for people to focus and keep on track on their target years since whatever those companies do for sure will not affect your investment and there's more good chances to earn more rather than buying those short time hype they made.
These things are already part of the investment risk because they or big companies will positively increase the price and also increase adoption which makes many people think positively and when talking about Bitcoin these things can attract many people and believe that Bitcoin is a very good investment. However, it can also be a risky thing especially for those who do not have in-depth knowledge about Bitcoin and also the risks that will be faced when it happens, I mean when big companies sell their holdings and what to do and what to anticipate if it happens because these things they must know because these things are common that can affect their psychology and can affect the market and also damage the strategy if they do not really study these things that make them panic and make the wrong decisions.
And periodic purchases or DCA is the solution to all of that but they also have to know these things and what actions to take, especially having to instill strong conviction and strong patience so that their plans or strategies do not waver. So the most important thing in my opinion is to learn everything well and not only the strategy or the benefits but also learn the things that will happen to the negative things that they should know so that they remain calm and not waver if it happens. Even will always take advantage of the falling price by increasing their purchases periodically and normalizing it again when the price goes up and remains consistent in the long term.
