According to a new filing on February 10, 2026, the bank now holds a mix of digital assets. While Bitcoin is still the top choice, the bank has added new funds for Ethereum, XRP, and Solana.

The new report shows that the bank’s virtual assets investments grew by 15% in just three months. The Goldman Sachs Crypto Holdings include $1.1 billion in Bitcoin and $1 billion in Ethereum. This near-equal split is a big surprise to many. Most large investors hold much more Bitcoin than any other coin. By holding so much Ethereum, The investment giant seems to be making a big bet on the future of digital finance and smart contracts.
It is important to note that the organization does not hold the actual coins. Instead, it buys shares in "spot ETFs." These are special funds that track the price of virtual assets. This allows the lender to avoid the risks of holding virtual keys. Most of the Bitcoin is held through BlackRock’s IBIT fund. For other coins, the lender uses a variety of different funds to keep its risk low.
For the first time, the organization has added XRP and Solana to its list. The investment giant Crypto Holdings now include $153 million in XRP and $108 million in Solana. This change shows that the bank is looking beyond just the two biggest coins. XRP is often used for fast bank-to-bank payments. Solana is known for being a very fast and low-cost network.
These purchases happened during a time when digital assets prices were moving up and down. Even when Bitcoin fell below $70,000, Goldman Sachs continued to build its position. Experts say that while $2.4 billion is a lot of money, it is still less than 1% of the organization's total wealth. This means the lender is taking a slow and careful approach to the market.
The fact that a $3 trillion bank now holds billions in crypto is a turning point. New laws have made it easier for banks to join the market without fear. As stablecoin talks continue at the White House where The investment giant has a seat the lender is in a great spot to lead. We expect to see the bank move even more money into Digital assets as the technology matures. For now, Goldman Sachs has moved from being a skeptic to a major "whale" in the digital asset world.
