According to Foresight News, BlackRock's ETF head, Samara Cohen, recently shared insights in an interview with Bankless regarding the current state and future of cryptocurrency ETFs. Cohen described Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs as "simulated versions" of crypto assets, suggesting they are attempts to fit crypto technology into traditional financial frameworks. She indicated that traditional financial institutions like BlackRock and Nasdaq might eventually transition their operations onto blockchain platforms, potentially leading to the emergence of dedicated financial institution blockchains. Cohen also addressed perceptions surrounding Ethereum ETFs, noting that while some believe they are less successful than Bitcoin ETFs, from an industry standards perspective, the launch of Ethereum ETFs has been quite successful. She emphasized that the primary criterion for an ETF's success is its ability to meet its intended objectives. BlackRock's current digital asset strategy focuses on the operation and development of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, tokenization projects—particularly the tokenization of treasury funds—and stablecoin-related activities. Future product development will continue to be driven by client demand.

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 specialized financial institution blockchains 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 bond funds), and stablecoin-related businesses. In the future, new product development will continue to be customer-oriented.
