So Dartmouth, through the Trustees, drops a crypto bomb-okay, not a bomb exactly, but close-into BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT). They’re listing 201,531 shares, worth about $10,006,014 as of December 31, 2025, per a Form 13F filed on January 14. And yes, a fresh allocation to the Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust as well. BTC and ETH under the same Ivy League roof. Is this a hedge fund or a campus club meeting? 🤔💰
Dartmouth’s Endowment Adds Bitcoin And Ethereum
Crypto market watchers started buzzing. MacroScope, the analyst account that tracks institutional positioning, called the filing a “very important filing today.” They noted Dartmouth owned 201,531 IBIT shares valued over $10 million as of year-end, plus 178,148 Grayscale Ethereum Mini shares valued at about $4.9 million. Really? We’re doing this in the endowment now? 🙄
The SEC filing pins down the precise marks: Dartmouth’s Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust stake was listed at $4,998,833 for 178,148 shares at quarter-end, putting the combined Bitcoin and Ethereum allocations at roughly $15.0 million in 13F holdings. Fine, fine-the numbers are real, I get it. 😅
