BlackRock's Head of Digital Assets Robert Mitchnick said Monday there are reasons to believe that there has been a perception shift around bitcoin, the world's largest cryptocurrency, which has been fluctuating between roughly $60,000 and $65,000 for more than two months.

"We’ve seen sentiment turn in a noticeable, but subtle way the last month or so.

You’ve seen Bitcoin decouple from equities starting earlier in the year," Mitchnick said during a televised interview.

As of 2:38 p.m.

EST, BTC was changing hands at $63,853, down about 2% on the day.
