According to K33 Research, findings released on January 30th reveal that Norges Bank Investment Management (NBIM), recognized as the world’s largest sovereign wealth fund, has significantly increased its exposure to Bitcoin (BTC). By the conclusion of 2024, the fund’s holdings have escalated to approximately 3,821 BTC, reflecting a remarkable growth of 153% compared to the 1,507 BTC recorded a year prior. This leap underscores not only the fund’s strategic inclination towards digital assets but also signals a broader institutional acceptance of cryptocurrencies within traditional finance. Furthermore, the sovereign wealth fund has fortified its position by acquiring $500 million in stock from MicroStrategy, along with partial investments in major crypto exchanges and related companies, including Coinbase (COIN), Metaplanet (3350), and MARA Holdings (MARA). This diversification highlights a burgeoning trend among institutional investors to leverage the digital asset landscape.
