by

My dear, the latest gossip from the halls of Harvard is simply divine! Their 13-F filing with the ever-so-serious SEC reveals a rather daring flirtation with the Ishares Bitcoin Trust ETF, to the tune of $116.67 million. How utterly modern of them! 🌟

Bitcoin Goes Ivy League: Harvard’s $116M Wink at Crypto 💼✨

The venerable Harvard, darling, has decided to dip its perfectly manicured toes into the crypto pool. Through its endowment, managed by the oh-so-clever Harvard Management Company (HMC), they’ve embraced a diversified strategy-private equity, hedge funds, and now, the wild child of finance, Bitcoin. How très chic! 🕶️

Their 13-F filing is a veritable who’s who of tech titans: Microsoft ($10.03 billion, 623,300 shares), Amazon ($234.98 million, 1.07 million shares), Alphabet ($113.88 million, 646,200 shares), and Nvidia ($104.40 million, 660,831 shares). Oh, and let’s not forget Meta Platforms ($120.50 million) and Broadcom ($53.12 million). Such a bouquet of riches! 💐

But the pièce de résistance? A $116.67 million dalliance with Bitcoin via Blackrock’s Ishares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT), paired with a $101.51 million nod to the old guard-gold. How delightfully bipolar! 🌓

And let’s not overlook their crush on Purecycle Technologies-$3.02 million in warrants and a whopping $26.07 million in common shares. Recycling, darling? How very 21st century! ♻️ Meanwhile, biotech darlings like 10X Genomics and Maze Therapeutics, gaming’s Light & Wonder, and Booking Holdings round out this financial cabaret. 🎭

On social media, the Bitcoin brigade is toasting Harvard’s move with virtual champagne. “To the moon!” they cry. Well, my dear, if Harvard’s betting on both Bitcoin and gold, it seems they’re hedging their bets-just in case the future isn’t as glittering as they hope. 🥂
