Goldman Sachs has ghosted XRP like it’s 2009 and they just realized they left their flip phone at the club. According to their Q1 2026 Form 13F, XRP is now the financial equivalent of “we should just be friends.”
- Goldman’s Q1 filing ditched XRP and Solana ETFs faster than a bad Tinder match. Bye, Felicia!
- They’re still clinging to Bitcoin and Ether ETFs, but let’s be real-it’s like they’re only texting back once a week.
- Meanwhile, Mubadala is out here sliding into the DMs of the BlackRock Bitcoin ETF like it’s the last slice of pizza at a party.
Remember when Goldman Sachs was all “XRP is my soulmate” with $154 million in Q4 2025? Well, now they’re acting like they never met. Crypto.news reported that U.S. spot XRP ETFs hit $1.53 billion, but Goldman’s like, “New phone, who dis?”
Bitcoin and Ether: The “It’s Complicated” Relationship
Goldman’s still holding onto Bitcoin and Ether ETFs, but it’s giving major “I’m just not ready for a commitment” vibes. They trimmed their BlackRock iShares Bitcoin Trust to $690 million (nice) and Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund to $25 million (rude). Ether? They slashed that like it was a Black Friday sale, cutting their BlackRock iShares Ethereum Trust by 70% to a cool $114 million.
Crypto.news says Ethereum ETFs saw $255.11 million in outflows in May. Goldman’s response? “Yeah, no, I’m good.”
But don’t think they’re quitting crypto cold turkey. They’re still flirting with Circle, Galaxy Digital, Coinbase, Robinhood, and PayPal. It’s like they’re keeping their options open while avoiding the mining crowd-BitMine, Bit Digital, and Riot Platforms got the “let’s just be friends” text too.
Wall Street’s Crypto Game: A Rom-Com with Mixed Signals
Just when you think everyone’s swiping left on crypto ETFs, Mubadala’s over here like, “IBIT, you’re my endgame,” boosting their BlackRock Bitcoin ETF position by 16% to $565.6 million. Goldman’s not totally out of the game either-they filed for a Bitcoin ETF that’s basically a side hustle with options trades. Classic overachiever move.
But let’s not forget: 13F filings are like those “seen at 2:00 AM” messages-they only show the last thing they said, not what they’re thinking now. The SEC’s like, “I don’t vouch for this,” so take it with a grain of salt and a shot of tequila.
