Jane Street Reveals Nearly $1B Bitcoin Position\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Quantitative trading firm and liquidity provider Jane Street has a nearly $1 billion bitcoin position \u2014 or 15,394 BTC at today\u2019s prices.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But the position is not held in the form of digital coins: According<\/a> to a regulatory filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Wall Street giant holds $990 million in Bitcoin exchange-traded funds, spread across major ETFs like BlackRock\u2019s iShares Bitcoin Trust, Fidelity\u2019s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund, and Grayscale\u2019s Bitcoin Trust.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The lion\u2019s share of the firm\u2019s holdings are in BlackRock\u2019s fund, with $828 million solely invested in the fund, according to the filing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

BlackRock\u2019s fund is the biggest and most popular of the spot Bitcoin ETFs, which were approved and started trading at the beginning of 2024. The fund has received more cash than any other crypto ETF and currently has $47.3 billion in assets under management.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Major firms have been able to buy exposure to the asset via shares of the regulated vehicles that trade on stock exchanges.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pension funds and U.S. states have all bought exposure to Bitcoin via the ETFs, along with more traditional investments like tech stocks and other U.S. equities.<\/p>\n

Jane Street on Monday posted its first losing month in about a decade, revealing roughly $15 billion in July losses.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The loss was driven mainly by its stake in AI-focused hedge fund Situational Awareness, which stumbled badly amid AI bet losses and margin calls, and by bad bets in Asian equity markets.<\/p>\n

Despite the loss, Jane Street has made over $40 billion in net trading revenue year-to-date, according<\/a> to Bloomberg. That\u2019s already more than all of 2025, when it set a Wall Street record with $39.6 billion, beating Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Wall Street titans Edelman Financial and Tudor Investment Corporation last week also revealed<\/a> significant Bitcoin positions, along with Abu Dhabi\u2019s sovereign wealth funds.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
