David Solomon admits he owns “very little” bitcoin, a confession that pulls the Goldman Sachs chief into the very money he once eyed with caution.
Goldman Sachs Boss Reveals He Holds a Tiny Bit of Bitcoin at the World Liberty Forum in Florida
On February 18, during a panel at the World Liberty Forum in sunny Florida, Solomon told the crowd that he owns a “little” bitcoin. He added, “I own a little bitcoin, very little,” and muttered that he “is not a great bitcoin prognosticator.” He painted himself as an observer, still learning how the asset behaves.
That statement marks a shift. In July 2024, Solomon described bitcoin as a speculative fancy with no clear use, though he said it could be a store of value. By January 2025, he blamed regulatory walls that kept Goldman from dipping its toes directly into crypto markets.
At the Florida forum, Solomon mused that the rules had been “extremely prohibitive” until the Trump era brought more flexibility around digital assets. He chewed on the humor of a world that once stamped out crypto, only to celebrate it now.
Goldman has, in the last few years, pushed its crypto presence through exchange‑traded funds linked to bitcoin, ethereum, and more. By early 2026, the bank disclosed roughly $2.36 billion in crypto‑related ETF exposure, though it trimmed a few positions by late 2025.
Solomon also flagged tokenization as a significant development, suggesting blockchain infrastructure-rather than speculative dancing-has captured Wall Street’s attention.
Even “very little” is symbolic when someone who kept crypto on the sidelines admits to owning a handful of coins.
