Beyond its 260-year-old educational excellence, Ivy League Brown University has joined institutional smart money, making bold steps into the “digital gold” rush.
May 2- One of the 8 oldest educational institutions (Ivy League schools) in the United States has announced its strategic step into the digital assets market. Brown University has signaled confidence in crypto assets as the mainstream finance sector faces portfolio revisions.
In its recent 13F filing and portfolio disclosure, Brown University has revealed a smart money move by opening a $4.9 million position in the IBIT Bitcoin ETF, totaling 105,000 shares.

What does this mean for BTC?
With Bitcoin Exchange Reserves declining, Bitcoin’s scarcity is rising, hinting at a potential supply shock in the next few months. Analysts have argued that with the rising institutional demand, 2025 could be the last year to buy BTC below $100k, considering its capped supply.
As institutions rush to accumulate the “digital gold”, an exponential bull rally could be on the cards in the next few months, with negligible price volatility marks.
