Pensions’ move to BTC is slow, steady 

Author: Content Editor
The long-term prospects for Bitcoin (BTC) remain positive, as factors such as government deficit spending, monetary policy by the Federal Reserve, and increased institutional adoption continue to drive its growth. Pensions and endowments are becoming increasingly interested in investing in cryptocurrencies, as evidenced by Emory University, the State of Michigan Retirement System, and the Wisconsin investment board. An unnamed UK pension scheme has also recently allocated 3% of its portfolio to Bitcoin after a thorough due diligence process. However, there are still regulatory and logistical hurdles that need to be addressed before pensions and endowments can fully invest in Bitcoin. Onramp, a Bitcoin-focused platform, has been chosen as the asset manager and custodian for Cartwright, and their CEO expects more pensions to follow suit. Ultimately, it is believed that Bitcoin will become a core asset in all investment portfolios, with the involvement of banks and the potential for Bitcoin's price to reach six-figures in 2025 driving institutional adoption.
