The post Harvard Triples Bitcoin Exposure as Price Falls Near $96K appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin trades near $96K while short-term momentum looks weak. Harvard boosts IBIT from $117M to $443M in one quarter. Institutions and sovereign funds keep buying more Bitcoin.

JPMorgan has also increased its holdings, bringing its exposure to roughly $280M.
