From Pensions to Crypto: The Bold New Frontier of Retirement Investing

Pension funds are increasingly exploring investments in cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin, as part of their diversification and growth strategies. This trend is evident across several countries:

United States: The Michigan State Retirement Fund invested approximately $6.6 million in the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF in July 2024. Similarly, the State of Wisconsin Investment Board holds significant positions in the iShares Bitcoin Trust and the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust. Jersey City's pension fund is also considering similar allocations.

Japan: The Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF), the world's largest pension fund, is exploring Bitcoin as a potential diversification tool. In March 2024, GPIF initiated a five-year research plan to assess innovative investment strategies, including cryptocurrencies.

Norway: The Norwegian Government Pension Fund has invested indirectly in #cryptocurrencies by holding shares in companies like MicroStrategy, MARA (formerly Marathon Digital), Coinbase, and Block Inc., which have Bitcoin on their balance sheets. Analysts estimate that the Norwegian fund indirectly owns over 2,440 BTC.

Australia: In May 2024, AMP, one of Australia's largest pension funds, invested $27 million in Bitcoin, marking it as the first major Australian pension fund to adopt digital assets. This investment represents a modest 0.05% of AMP's $57 billion assets under management.
