Macquarie Group, Australia's largest investment bank, reduced its stake in BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF by 62% in Q2 2026, lowering its holdings from about $159M to $55M. This marks the second consecutive quarter of significant reduction, following a 19% cut in Q1. The firm has not publicly explained the reasons, and the filings do not clarify if the reduction is due to client redemptions or a strategic de-risking. The next quarter's filings will reveal if this trend continues or stabilizes.
