Major United States-based financial services firm Wells Fargo has disclosed investments in Bitcoin (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/bitcoin-price">BTC</a>) exchange-traded funds offered by Grayscale and ProShares.
In a May 10 filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Wells Fargo <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/72971/000007297124000139/xslForm13F_X02/13F_3_2024.xml" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">reported</a> it held 37 shares of the ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITO), which <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/proshares-bito-benefits-spot-bitcoin-etf-launch">offers exposure to BTC futures</a>, and 2,245 shares of Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), which was converted to an ETF. The firm also reported 52 shares in Bitcoin Depot, a crypto ATM provider.
The total value of the three Bitcoin-related investments was $143,111, a significantly small holding for the major bank. Wells Fargo <a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/supervisionreg/resolution-plans/wells-fargo-2g-20230701.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">reported</a> roughly $1.7 trillion in assets as of June 2023, making it the third-largest bank in the U.S. by holdings. The SEC added that observers should not assume that the information provided by the financial firm was “accurate and complete.”
