Allen Helm, co-founder of Bitcoin for Corporations, indicated that many banks and large institutions no longer regard Bitcoin as merely a speculative asset, marking a pivotal shift in both perception and strategy in the financial sector. Helm outlined how banks are moving beyond treating Bitcoin as an alternative investment and are now building digital credit and securities products linked to the cryptocurrency.
