<p>According to a latest Bloomberg report, Goldman Sachs is preparing to launch a new company focused on its digital assets platform. It is speaking with potential partners as it plans to spin out its digital-assets platform into a new company for large financial firms to create, trade and settle financial instruments through blockchain technology.</p>   
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-spin-out-in-12-18-months">Spin Out In 12-18 Months</h2>   
<p>While the Plans for the new company are in the early stages, but the long-term goal is to execute the spin-out within the next 12 to 18 months, subject to regulatory approvals, noted Mathew McDermott, Goldman’s global head of Digital Assets.</p>   
<p>“It’s in the best interest of the market to have something that is industry-owned,” he stated. Electronic trading platform Tradeweb Markets Inc. is its first strategic partner that will work with Goldman to bring new commercial use cases to the digital assets platform. This reflects a growing trend among large institutions to integrate blockchain technology into traditional financial systems.</p>   
<p>Goldman’s move mirrors a broader industry trend, where major financial institutions and governments are embracing blockchain technology to enhance the efficiency of traditional asset trading and settlement processes.</p>   
<p>In another initiative, Goldman is looking to support secondary transactions in private digital asset companies for its clients. This could make it easier for family offices and other clients looking for liquidity while also allowing buyers to take advantage of private market discounts. The firm also noted that it is preparing to resume its Bitcoin-backed lending activities.&nbsp;</p>   
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote">
  
 <p>“If you are trying to build out a scalable marketplace, you want to have the right strategic participants embracing this technology,” McDermott said. “You want a number that is nimble enough to operate, driven by the commercial use cases.”&nbsp;</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-goldman-sachs-bullish-on-bitcoin">Goldman Sachs Bullish On Bitcoin</h2>   
<p>Goldman has maintained a bullish stance on Bitcoin throughout the year. In a Nov. 14 filing with the SEC, Goldman Sachs reported about $718 million in holdings in eight Bitcoin ETFs. It has added $300 million to its Bitcoin ETF portfolio since the second quarter, marking a 71% increase. It has also planned to launch three tokenization projects by the end of this year.&nbsp;</p>
