Goldman Sachs Rebuilds XRP ETF Position After Complete Exit

Goldman Sachs has reportedly re-emerged as one of the largest institutional holders of XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs), according to a recent analysis by crypto and wealth YouTube host Kamilah Stevenson. This marks a significant reversal from Goldman's previous quarter, where it reported no exposure to XRP funds.

The firm's latest 13F filing shows approximately $86.5 million spread across five XRP-related funds, following a complete exit in the prior quarter. According to Dr. Stevenson, this is not just a simple first-time allocation, but rather an intentional rebuilding of a position that Goldman had previously closed.

Institutional investors often access cryptocurrencies through regulated products such as ETFs, and a 13F filing only reflects holdings on one day, meaning it cannot show trades made earlier in the quarter. The data also does not reveal short positions, derivatives, hedges or other liabilities, so an XRP fund position may not necessarily equal an outright bullish bet on the token itself.
