Bank of America increased its stake in BlackRock’s IBIT Bitcoin ETF to roughly $37 million during the first quarter, according to its latest regulatory filing. The bank also disclosed nearly $53 million in total crypto ETF exposure while reducing positions tied to Ethereum and Solana funds. The shift suggests growing institutional confidence in Bitcoin compared with other major cryptocurrencies. Investors are closely watching how large banks adjust their crypto strategies as demand for regulated digital-asset products continues to expand across traditional finance.
