Did you see that Goldman Sachs filed a request for a Bitcoin ETF with the SEC? That news came out this week. It’s kind of interesting because it hasn’t been long since Morgan Stanley also launched a similar product. It seems like everyone wants a piece of that pie now.
The name is a bit funny—Bitcoin Premium Income ETF, like a “little treat for boomers.” Their strategy is to generate monthly income by selling call options, instead of buying Bitcoin directly. They invest at least 80% in products linked to BTC. It provides a more stable income, but it caps the profits if Bitcoin really takes off.
As for approval of a bitcoin spot ETF: after the SEC’s standard 75-day review period, people are betting on June 2026 as the likely date. There are still a few months to go.
What stands out is that Goldman Sachs is the 7th largest asset manager in the world (US$ 3.65 trillion in assets under management) and is jumping into this game now. It used to be more of a Bitcoin investor, but now it wants to be a issuer. It’s also diversifying with Ethereum, Solana, and XRP. I think this really shows the growing appetite for digital assets among institutions. Do you think it will actually come out in June?
