Matt Hougan: "Bitcoin Yield Could Rise, Volatility Fall if Retirement Pension Funds Flow In"
Summary
- It was reported that President Donald Trump's executive order may lead to retirement pension funds flowing into Bitcoin.
- Matt Hougan, CIO of Bewise, stated that a steady buying trend from pension reserves could increase Bitcoin returns and reduce volatility.
- Hougan noted that Bitcoin has the highest likelihood of being included first among pension products in terms of institutional adoption and regulation.
After U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order allowing alternative asset investments such as virtual assets (cryptocurrencies) in retirement accounts (401K), the industry is noting the potential for trillions of dollars in long-term funds to flow into Bitcoin (BTC).
According to cryptocurrency-focused media Cointelegraph on the 8th (local time), Matt Hougan, CIO of Bewise, said, "This change could steadily and consistently draw in pension reserves, leading to higher returns and lower volatility over the long term," and added, "Over the past decade, Bitcoin has been the world's best-performing asset, and it remains well-positioned for the next 10 years."
Hougan particularly anticipates that Bitcoin is most likely to be included in pension products first, from the perspective of institutional adoption and regulatory compliance. On the other hand, he assessed that altcoins will require additional conditions such as regulated products, reliable standards, and the establishment of institutional trust to benefit in the medium to long term.
