Why the world’s biggest asset manager and America’s top crypto exchange CEO say they’re not afraid of another “crypto winter” — and why Bible prophecy watchers should be paying attention.
Dear friends,
As a journalist who has spent decades studying global trends through the lens of Scripture, I’ve learned something important: prophecy rarely unfolds in a straight line — it develops in layers. Sometimes the news people dismiss is the very stage-setting God expects His watchmen to see.
This week, two of the most influential financial leaders in the world sat on a stage in New York — and without realizing it, spoke into the very patterns prophetic believers have been tracking for years. Let’s unpack what they revealed — and why it matters.
How BlackRock & Coinbase May Be Preparing the Rails for Revival
When the CEO of BlackRock — steward of a staggering $13.5 trillion in assets — sits beside the CEO of Coinbase, America’s dominant crypto exchange, and both confidently say they are not worried about another “crypto winter,” the world listens.
But prophecy watchers do more than listen —they discern.
At the New York Times DealBook Summit, Larry Fink (BlackRock) and Brian Armstrong (Coinbase) did not sound like cautious executives defending speculative technology. They spoke as if they were architects of a new financial operating system.
Fink publicly reversed his 2017 dismissal of Bitcoin as an “index of money laundering,” now overseeing the world’s largest Bitcoin ETF.
He called Bitcoin an “asset of fear” — a hedge for those anxious about war, instability, deficits, and currency debasement.
Armstrong predicted 2025 will be remembered as the year crypto leaves the shadows of regulatory gray zones and becomes fully established, fueled by the new GENIUS Act for stablecoins and bipartisan market-structure reforms.
Together, they championed tokenization — the conversion of every asset class, from stocks to real estate, into digital, tradable units.
For Wall Street, this sounded like innovation and opportunity. For students of Bible prophecy, it hinted at something deeper — the emergence of a world where wealth is traceable, controllable, and programmable.
A landscape that begins to resemble the framework described in Revelation 13,
where no one can “buy or sell” without authorization.
But Scripture shows another pattern often missed: Before systems become instruments of control, God often uses them to fund deliverance, mobilize His people, and advance His purposes — just as Egypt’s storehouses preserved Israel and Babylon’s treasury rebuilt Jerusalem.
Could the same be true today? That question drives this report. Continue below the paywall for full analysis and prophetic insight.
