The investment firm led by renowned trader Paul Tudor Jones has discreetly expanded its exposure to BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF, despite the overall holding remaining significantly below its 2024 high-water mark.

According to regulatory filings, Tudor Investment Corp owned 688,529 shares of BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust on June 30, 2026. This represents an 18.9% increase compared to the 579,083 shares disclosed at the close of the first quarter.

At the time of the regulatory submission, this position carried a valuation of $22.9 million and currently stands at approximately $24.5 million. With Tudor overseeing about $106 billion in total assets under management, this bitcoin ETF holding constitutes a relatively modest allocation.
