Bitwise CIO: Integrating BTC into traditional portfolios boosts returns, reduces risk

Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan argues that adding bitcoin to traditional portfolios, rather than in isolation, can enhance returns while minimizing risk. According to The Block, a 5% Bitcoin (BTC) allocation in a 60/40 stocks and bonds portfolio from 2017-2024 boosted returns from 107% to 207%, with only a slight increase in volatility.
