Barclays Invests $131M in BlackRock Bitcoin ETF as Institutional Adoption Grows

Barclays Invests $131M in BlackRock Bitcoin ETF as Institutional Adoption Grows

Barclays has officially joined the ranks of major financial institutions investing in Bitcoin ETFs. In its latest 13F filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ( SEC ) , the UK-based bank disclosed its purchase of 2,473,064 shares in the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), valued at $131 million as of December 31 . The acquisition took place during the fourth quarter, spanning October to December, aligning with Bitcoin’s post-election price surge. This move highlights a growing trend among institutional investors looking to gain Bitcoin exposure through ETFs rather than direct ownership. Barclays follows in the footsteps of industry giants like Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan, both of which have recently increased their Bitcoin ETF holdings. The approval of Bitcoin ETFs by the SEC has significantly simplified institutional access to BTC , allowing them to bypass direct ownership’s volatility and regulatory risks. Instead of holding Bitcoin themselves, institutions can now gain exposure through regulated financial products. Goldman Sachs, for instance, has expanded its Bitcoin ETF holdings by 121% , now totaling $1.57 billion . JPMorgan has also upped its stake, reporting holdings worth $964,322 in its most recent filing. In January 2025 alone, U.S. Bitcoin ETFs recorded massive inflows of $5 billion , with analysts expecting this trend to persist. Forecasts predict over $50 billion in inflows by the end of 2025 , based on data from Farside Investors. BlackRock’s IBIT led the way in net inflows during January, attracting $3.2 billion , followed by Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), which brought in $1.3 billion . IBIT was the best-performing Bitcoin ETF for the month, confirming the strong demand among institutional investors. With Bitcoin reaching an all-time high of $109,000 before the U.S. presidential inauguration, financial powerhouses have capitalized on the crypto’s growth without directly holding BTC. Market experts predict further price increases, with projections suggesting BTC could soar to $200,000 by late 2025 . As institutional adoption accelerates and ETF inflows surge, Bitcoin’s role in traditional finance continues to strengthen.
