I saw the news that Goldman Sachs has filed for a Bitcoin ETF with the SEC shortly after Morgan Stanley did the same. What’s interesting is their approach to design. Instead of buying Bitcoin directly, they will invest in Bitcoin-linked products such as Bitcoin ETPs and various options to generate steady income for investors.
This product is called the Goldman Sachs Bitcoin Premium Income ETF, which pays monthly dividends by selling Bitcoin call options. Some people call this boomer candy because it provides consistent income and reduces volatility. However, it also has a downside: it limits profits when BTC surges.
According to the SEC’s standard 75-day review process, analysts expect the Bitcoin ETF approval date to be around the end of June 2026. This shows that leading financial institutions are seriously entering the crypto market.
What makes this newsworthy is that Goldman Sachs has shifted from investing in Bitcoin products to issuing securities. They hold a large amount of XRP ETFs and offer products related to Ethereum and Solana. This indicates increasing demand from institutional investors for digital assets.
Compared to last week, Morgan Stanley launched the lowest-fee Bitcoin ETF in the United States. Meanwhile, Grayscale and BlackRock continue to adjust their positions. The Bitcoin ETF market is growing rapidly. Even yesterday, spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced a net outflow of $291 million, while Ethereum ETFs saw an inflow of $9.44 million.
