Edelman Financial Engines, an investment advisor overseeing $326 billion, has disclosed a $34 million position in spot Bitcoin ETFs — a stake that now exceeds some of the firm's other holdings in major technology companies.

While the position remains small within the investment advisor's overall portfolio, it is larger than the firm's $25 million holding in Amazon. The exposure is held through BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust — the largest spot Bitcoin ETF by assets — and Grayscale's flagship product, an allocation that tracks closely with the publicly stated views of founder Ric Edelman.

Edelman has been advocating for Bitcoin ETFs since 2019, years before the SEC approved spot products in January 2024. He also founded the Digital Assets Council of Financial Professionals, an organization built to educate financial advisors on crypto and blockchain technology.

Edelman Financial is not the only firm with fresh Bitcoin exposure to report. In a regulatory filing submitted this afternoon, Tudor Investment Corporation, the $106 billion firm run by legendary macro trader Paul Tudor Jones, reported owning 688,529 shares of IBIT — the ticker for BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust — as of June 30, valued at $22.9 million.

The figures come from the quarterly disclosure filings — known as Form 13F — that institutional investment managers submit to the SEC, which report holdings as of the end of each reporting period. The forms are due within 45 days of a quarter's end, which is why the June 30 snapshots surface each mid-August, and they capture only long positions in US-listed securities as of that date, leaving any exposure held through futures, offshore vehicles, or direct coins out of view. Tudor's stake is up from the 579,083 shares the firm reported for the previous quarter. Since the spot ETFs came to market, these filings have offered one of the few recurring public tallies of institutional exposure to them.

Few investors have built a career reading inflation cycles and their historical patterns as successfully as Jones, making the size of the increase notable in its own right. Jones' interest in the asset is long-standing: in May 2020, he disclosed that his fund held Bitcoin futures as a hedge against inflation.
