11.02.2026

Goldman Sachs has announced a significant reduction in its investments in cryptocurrency-related exchange traded funds, specifically the Bitcoin ETF and Ethereum ETF. According to official data, the bank reduced its stake in Bitcoin ETF by 35% and in Ethereum ETF by 28% compared to the previous quarter. This decision is due to a review of the risks associated with the volatility of the cryptocurrency market, as well as changes in the global regulatory environment.In an official statement, Goldman Sachs representatives noted that "the revision of the investment portfolio is consistent with its long-term strategy of risk management and asset diversification." Despite the reduction, the bank maintains a definite presence in the digital asset sector, emphasizing the importance of innovation and new technologies for financial markets.Data from the last quarter shows that the bank's total assets invested in crypto funds fell from $1.2 billion to $780 million, reflecting a more cautious approach to investments amid uncertainty and increased competition among financial institutions.Experts note that Goldman Sachs' move could be a signal to other major players in the industry, encouraging the further development of more measured strategies for investing in digital assets. The bank also emphasized that it will continue to closely monitor the development of blockchain technologies and opportunities for the integration of new financial instruments.
