Social media post claims major Wall Street firms hold XRP ETFs

A post says some institutional XRP ETF positions are becoming visible and names Goldman Sachs, UBS, Citadel, Millennium, and Bank of America, while disclosure limits under 13F rules may leave many holders undisclosed.

XRP

Summary

A social media-style post claims that institutional holdings in XRP exchange-traded funds are beginning to emerge publicly, while still representing only a partial picture because 13F disclosures generally apply to investment managers with at least $100 million in assets under management. The claim names Goldman Sachs, UBS, Citadel, Millennium, and Bank of America as XRP ETF holders and says Goldman Sachs leads disclosed holdings with $153.8 million across products from Bitwise, Grayscale, and 21Shares, according to a highlight attributed to Chad Steingraber. However, the provided material includes no filing dates, share counts, full fund names, issuer confirmation, or regulatory documentation, so the specific holdings cannot be independently verified from the source text alone.

Terms & Concepts

  • 13F filing: A quarterly disclosure form filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by certain large institutional investment managers to report qualifying holdings.
  • Assets under management: The total market value of assets that an investment firm manages on behalf of clients or funds.
