$12 trillion pension market opens up to Crypto Assets?

Question

[Coin World] Interestingly, the current stock market and 401(k) retirement accounts have indeed seen considerable rises. But a real turning point may have arrived—what does it mean if Bitcoin and crypto assets are officially included in 401(k) pension plans? A massive market of over $12 trillion will be leveraged. This is not just a numbers game. The collision of traditional pension systems and Web3 assets could reshape the liquidity landscape of the entire crypto market. If institutional and retail investors&#39; pensions really flow into the Bitcoin ecosystem, then this wave of growth is just beginning.

12 trillion, if this really comes in, will retail investors still have a chance...

---

Wait, will 401k really allow Bitcoin in? It feels like we have to wait a long time for that

---

To put it bluntly, it&#39;s just institutions looking for new reasons to play people for suckers, don&#39;t be too optimistic

---

Wow, if this comes true and all the pensions dump into Bitcoin, my grandpa will have to trade cryptocurrencies with me

---

TradFi and crypto colliding? It feels more like the beginning of being harvested...

---

12 trillion... this number sounds ridiculous, can it really all come in?

---

Is elderly people&#39;s retirement money going into the crypto market? This operation is a bit crazy haha

---

Is the Bitcoin ecosystem ready to take in this 12 trillion? I think it&#39;s doubtful

---

Liquidity reshaping is a nice way to say it, I only see the potential for dumping

---

The arrival of institutions means the good days for retail investors are over, who disagrees with this logic?

12 trillion? Bro, this number is ridiculous. If retirement funds really go into the crypto world, I would laugh to death.

120 trillion? My goodness, if this really flows in, it would explode.

---

401k to open up for cryptocurrency entry? If this really happens, it would be a big signal.

---

Pension funds entering sounds nice, but will the regulatory commission give the opportunity?

---

Traditional finance colliding with Web3 sounds easy, but what about the reality?

---

Liquidity issues are not trivial, don&#39;t just look at the numbers.

---

Institutions always get in before retail investors and make a profit first, this understanding should be there.

12 trillion? If this really happens, retail investors&#39; pensions are going to be at stake, that&#39;s a bit scary.

---

Even the household savings need to enter the crypto world, TradFi is really in a panic.

---

Wait, are they saying that ordinary people&#39;s retirement funds can also buy Bitcoin? Then what am I still waiting for?

---

Liquidity reshaping sounds nice, but who dares to really go all in with their pension...

---

If 12 trillion flows in, the current price is simply the bottom.

---

But if it&#39;s really going to be like this, the institutions would have been rubbing their hands together already, why does it still feel so slow?

12 trillion? If this really happens, our current situation would be too laughable.

When retirees come to buy Bitcoin, that would be true mainstreaming.

Wait, will 401k really open up to encryption? It feels like we have to wait a long time for that.

Once TradFi and crypto mix together, regulation will definitely follow, it’s not that simple.

To be honest, it’s best if retail investors&#39; pensions can come in, but how do they get in? The policies in the US are so strict...

If this becomes a reality, it&#39;s not surprising if my Holdings multiply tenfold.

Stop dreaming, it’s not even a reality yet; let’s wait until the actual bill comes out.

12 trillion sounds amazing, but the premise is that they’re really willing to allocate to crypto assets, right?

Institutional entry ≠ winning this round; when liquidity comes in, risk also comes in, who’s afraid of who?

Is this the most bullish news or the biggest trap? No one can say for sure.
