Harvard Endowment Slashes Bitcoin Investment, Buys $86,824,287 Worth of Ethereum ETF Shares

Harvard is now an Ethereum (ETH) investor.

The Ivy League Institution’s endowment bought more than $86.8 million worth of BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the fourth quarter of 2025, per filings submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) last week.

Harvard Management Company also slashed its ongoing Bitcoin (BTC) ETF investment, reducing its iShares Bitcoin Trust holdings from 6,813,612 shares in Q3 to 5,353,612 in Q4. Those shares were worth $265.8 million as of December 31st.

The endowment first reported a $126.04 million BTC ETF investment in August, and those holdings grew to $443 million in Q3.

News of the private university’s investment shakeup materializes as the crypto market continues to bleed: Bitcoin is trading at $67,936 at time of writing and is down more than 2% in the past seven days and nearly 29% in the past month.

Ethereum has been hit even harder, down 4% in the past week and more than 40% in the past 30 days. The second-ranked crypto asset by market cap is trading at $1,978 at time of writing.

Endowments associated with Brown and Emory also disclosed crypto ETF investments in 2025. In a filing earlier this year, Dartmouth reported that it had invested more than $10 million in the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF and nearly $5 million in Grayscale’s Ethereum Mini Trust ETF.
