Goldman Sachs Group Inc. examines investments in digital assets, the latest move by a US bank to enter the world of cryptocurrency, the website CoinDesk report.
According to the portal, which quoted an unknown person, the bank in New York sent a request for information to at least one crypto custodian at the end of 2020. Goldman’s initiative was part of a broad digital strategy, CoinDesk said.
Representatives of Goldman Sachs did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment during the weekend.
The possible access by Goldman is the latest in a broader trend to bring digital currency into US banking. Earlier this month, Anchorage Digital Bank became the first cryptocurrency firm win a charter from the office of the currency controller.
