Quantitative trading firm and liquidity provider Jane Street has a nearly $1 billion bitcoin position — or 15,394 BTC at today’s prices.
The position does not exist in digital currency: According A regulatory filing to the Securities and Exchange Commission shows that the Wall Street giant has $990,000,000 in Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Funds. These funds are distributed across ETFs such as BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust and Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund.
According to the filing, the majority of BlackRock’s investments are made up solely by the fund. Its total investment is $828 millions.
BlackRock has the most successful and popular Bitcoin ETF. The fund was launched and approved at the start of 2024. It has more assets than any crypto ETF.
The major companies have the ability to acquire exposure to an asset through shares in regulated vehicles traded on stock exchanges.
The ETFs have been used by pension funds, states and U.S. companies to invest in Bitcoin. They also bought traditional investment like U.S. tech stocks.
Jane Street posted Monday its first loss month in about 10 years, with losses of approximately $15 billion for July.
Its loss was primarily driven by the stake it held in AI-focused hedge funds Situational Awareness and Asian equity markets.
Jane Street’s trading net revenue has exceeded $40 billion year to date, according Bloomberg. This is already higher than the Wall Street record of $39.6 billion set in 2025 by Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan and JPMorgan.
