Major move in Latin America's crypto adoption landscape: Itaú, Brazil's largest privately-owned bank, is now recommending Bitcoin allocation to its client base. The guidance suggests positioning up to 3% of portfolios in BTC. This marks a significant milestone as traditional banking giants increasingly recognize digital assets as part of mainstream investment strategies. Such recommendations from heavyweight financial institutions validate the maturation of cryptocurrency markets and signal growing institutional confidence in Bitcoin's role within diversified asset allocation frameworks.

Is Itaú only pushing 3%? That's too conservative. That's how institutions are—they'd rather miss out than go all-in.

Itau's recent move directly broke the defense; traditional finance is really starting to take BTC seriously. --- 3% sounds conservative, but this is just the beginning. Big institutions are moving as a whole. --- Finally, led by Latin American banks. Is it still far from other regions? --- I've been waiting too long for institutional entry. Now that it's only 3%, it feels a bit late. --- No, why not allocate fully... That's too cautious. --- Brazilian banks recognize BTC. What's the next step... Will the Federal Reserve follow suit? Overthinking it. --- This is a signal of institutional recognition. It's hard to argue against Bitcoin now.

Itau's latest move, traditional banks can finally no longer sit still --- 3% allocation… slow down, slow down, institutions are still testing the bottom line --- Actions in Latin America are really quick; if Brazil leads, other countries will follow suit --- It's another argument about institutional validation… let's wait until the major banks truly go all-in --- Traditional finance is starting to acknowledge us, but guys, this 3% is still too conservative
