BlackRock ETF head: The launch of Ethereum ETF is actually quite successful, and there may be a dedicated financial institution blockchain in the future

Odaily Planet Daily News: Samara Cohen, head of BlackRock ETF, said in a recent interview with Bankless that the current Bitcoin ETF, Ethereum ETF, etc. are "simulated versions" of crypto assets, which is equivalent to forcibly inserting crypto technology into the traditional financial framework. In the future, the business of traditional financial institutions (such as BlackRock and Nasdaq) may be transferred to the blockchain, and a dedicated financial institution blockchain may appear. In addition, Samara Cohen also pointed out that many people believe that the Ethereum ETF is not as successful as the Bitcoin ETF, but from the professional standards of the ETF industry, the launch of the Ethereum ETF is actually quite successful.

She emphasized that the primary criterion for judging whether an ETF is successful is whether it can achieve its expected goals. BlackRock's current digital asset strategy focuses on the operation and development of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, tokenization projects (especially the tokenization of treasury funds), and stablecoin-related businesses. In the future, new product development will continue to be customer-oriented.
