Fact Check
The statement is accurately attributed to Robert Mitchnick, BlackRock's Head of Digital Assets, during a CNBC interview in mid-March 2026. Multiple financial news outlets (Crypto News, Coinness, Bitget) corroborated the specific '90%' figure and the description of these investors as long-term accumulators (advisors and retail) versus the 10% arbitrage-focused hedge funds.
