According to Cointelegraph, CEO David Solomon of Goldman Sachs admitted in February 2026 that he holds a small amount of Bitcoin, marking a turnaround from his 2024 stance when he considered the asset purely speculative.
The disclosure was made at the World Liberty Forum in Florida, amid Goldman Sachs owning about $2.36 billion in crypto ETFs. This indicates the increasing integration of Wall Street with the digital asset market, even though banks still face legal restrictions on direct holdings.
On the X platform, the community reacted positively, viewing this as a classic example of the “deny then engage” cycle of traditional finance. This development may signal that the normalization process of Bitcoin is accelerating, particularly within the portfolios of wealthy individual clients and institutional investors.
