Goldman Sachs has fully sold off its holdings in several cryptocurrency ETFs focused on XRP and Solana, following weak performance of these products. The bank liquidated about $154 million in XRP-linked ETFs and exited Solana-related funds, signaling a retreat from alternative crypto ETFs. However, Goldman Sachs still maintains significant investments in Bitcoin ETFs, holding around $715 million combined, despite a slight reduction. The firm also cut Ethereum ETF exposure by 70% but increased stakes in crypto-related equities like Coinbase and PayPal, showing a strategic shift within its crypto portfolio.
