Goldman Sachs dumped all its XRP and Solana ETF holdings in the first quarter of 2026, according to its 13F filing. The move contradicts social media claims that the firm still held XRP positions, which relied on outdated Q4 2025 data. Only Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs remain in its crypto portfolio.
What the Q1 Filing Shows
Goldman reported zero holdings for both altcoin ETFs last quarter. The firm had entered 2025 with $154 million in XRP ETF exposure across four products. That made it the largest disclosed institutional player in spot XRP ETFs at the year-end. Its complete pullout happened quietly during Q1 2026.
Social Media Claims Debunked
A viral post this month claimed Goldman maintained XRP holdings. The evidence cited an SEC filing screenshot. That document actually showed Q4 2025 data. The current 13F filing proves the rumor false. It’s a reminder to check filing dates before reporting.
Current Crypto ETF Stakes
Goldman still holds $244.3 million in Ethereum ETFs across iShares products. Bitcoin ETFs total hundreds of millions through the iShares Bitcoin Trust. The firm also boosted positions in Circle, Galaxy Digital and Coinbase. It cut holdings in Strategy, IREN, Bit Digital and Riot during the quarter.
ETF Inflow Context
XRP ETFs hit $1.39 billion in cumulative net inflows as of May 2026. April added $81 million and May brought $95 million. Solana ETFs reached $1.12 billion in net inflows this month. They’ve stayed positive since launching last November but trail the $419 million opening peak. The next 13F filing due in mid-August will confirm whether Goldman’s exit is permanent.
