BlackRock
BlackRock’s digital assets ETFs, managing nearly $60.7 billion in assets, produced $42 million in fees during the first quarter of 2026. This figure represented 1.75% of the firm’s total ETF fees, despite comprising just 1.11% of ETF assets under management. The revenue highlights crypto’s higher fee rates but also its vulnerability to market swings.

Aval Fiduciaria, a subsidiary of Grupo Aval, and BlackRock have launched a new Collective Investment Fund (FIC) allowing Colombians to access global markets from $1 million via ETFs listed on the Colombia Stock Exchange. The product aims to boost fund participation, currently at just 5% of the population. It features a fully digital onboarding process completed in under five minutes.
BlackRock, the $10 trillion asset manager, is recruiting for seven digital asset positions across the US and Asia to bolster its cryptocurrency and blockchain initiatives. The roles aim to scale existing ETFs like the iShares Bitcoin Trust and pursue tokenization opportunities. This move follows the firm's successful launch of a spot bitcoin ETF last year.

BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust has achieved over 40% annualized returns since its January 2024 launch, even amid a recent crypto downturn. However, average investors have seen only 11% annualized gains over the same period through November 2025. This gap stems largely from late entry into the fund after its initial surge.
