Retail Money is “Dead” – Wall Street is how Bitcoin Actually Wins

The article from Bitcoin Magazine highlights a significant shift in Bitcoin's adoption trajectory, arguing that institutional money, particularly from Wall Street, is now the primary driver of its success, rather than traditional retail investment. Allen Helm is cited, suggesting that Bitcoin is moving from a niche asset into mainstream financial boardrooms. This institutional integration is characterized by how financial entities are structuring digital credit products around BTC and the substantial inflows observed in Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs). The piece frames this development as key to how Bitcoin is securing its long-term viability and broader acceptance.
