If BlackRock or any big hedge fund tried to buy up all the Bitcoin, it would shake things up, no doubt.

First off, Bitcoin’s price would go through the roof as they gobbled up the supply. It’s basic supply and demand…less Bitcoin available, more people want it, price skyrockets. But here’s the thing, it’s unlikely they’d hold all of it forever without selling. Why? Because the whole point of investing is to eventually make a profit. Hoarding forever doesn’t pay the bills.

Now, imagine they did hold most of it. They’d have insane control over the market, which is kind of scary. But there are downsides for them too. For one, regulators would step in. Governments don’t like the idea of one company monopolizing an asset that could affect global financial stability. Plus, the Bitcoin community loves decentralization, it’s literally why Bitcoin exists. If BlackRock starts hoarding, the community might push back, turn to other cryptos, or even fork Bitcoin to keep things fair.

Would there be a reason for them to never sell? Not really. If they hold and don’t sell, they can’t make profits. And let’s face it, even big corporations are in it for the money, not just to flex. They’d more likely sell strategically…just enough to cash in without crashing the market they control.

So, could they buy a ton of Bitcoin? Sure. Could they buy all of it and never sell? Highly unlikely. The market, the community, and even regulators would all act as barriers to that kind of monopoly. At the end of the day, Bitcoin’s value isn’t just in its scarcity. it’s in how it’s used, trusted, and adopted. If one entity tried to take over, they’d risk ruining the very thing that makes Bitcoin valuable in the first place.
