"summary",
"Barclays has joined other major financial institutions in investing in Bitcoin ETFs, reporting a new position in the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT). The bank holds 2,473,064 shares valued at $131 million as of December 31. This move follows a trend of institutional adoption of crypto-related products, with other banking giants such as Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan also increasing their Bitcoin ETF holdings. The approval of Bitcoin ETFs by the SEC has made it easier for institutions to get exposure to BTC while sidestepping some of the volatility and regulatory concerns surrounding direct crypto ownership."
