Goldman Sachs significantly reshaped its digital asset portfolio in the first quarter of 2026, exiting positions tied to XRP and solana exchange-traded funds (ETFs) while sharply reducing exposure to ether ETFs, according to its latest regulatory filing.

The Wall Street bank’s Form 13F filing shows it fully sold out of XRP and solana-linked ETF positions after previously holding roughly $154 million in XRP-related products. The move comes amid broader volatility across crypto markets during the quarter and signals a more selective institutional approach toward digital asset exposure.

Ether-linked investments also saw a major reduction. Goldman cut its ether ETF holdings by approximately 70%, leaving the bank with around $114 million in exposure by the end of March.

The filing did not indicate a complete retreat from digital assets, however. Bitcoin remained the bank’s dominant crypto allocation, with holdings in spot bitcoin ETFs totaling roughly $700 million at quarter-end.

The portfolio adjustments suggest Goldman may be consolidating exposure around bitcoin while scaling back positions tied to alternative digital assets. Bitcoin continued to outperform much of the broader crypto market during periods of volatility earlier this year, reinforcing its status as the primary institutional entry point into the sector.

At the same time, Goldman increased its stakes in several crypto-related equities, signaling continued confidence in parts of the industry’s infrastructure layer.

The bank expanded positions in Circle, Galaxy Digital, and Coinbase. The additions point to growing institutional interest in companies tied to trading infrastructure, stablecoin adoption, and blockchain-based financial services.

By contrast, Goldman reduced holdings in several firms more directly tied to crypto market cycles and mining operations. The bank trimmed exposure to Strategy, alongside bitcoin mining-related companies including IREN, Bit Digital, and Riot Platforms.

Goldman’s filing reflects how major financial firms are increasingly treating digital assets as part of broader portfolio allocation strategies rather than speculative standalone bets. Instead of broad-based exposure across multiple tokens, institutions appear to be concentrating capital in assets and companies viewed as more durable during periods of market uncertainty.

The bank’s continued commitment to bitcoin ETFs, despite reductions elsewhere, reinforces the cryptocurrency’s growing role as the institutional benchmark asset within digital markets.
