TREE NEWS update: Paul Tudor Jones’ macro fund increased its stake in BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust by 18.9% to 688,529 shares worth $22.9 million in Q2, reversing a year of selling. The fund also sharply cut its call options, shifting from leveraged bets to direct spot exposure.
Paul Tudor Jones’ Fund Buys Back into BlackRock Bitcoin ETF
The notable shift here is structural rather than directional: a macro fund that spent a year reducing exposure has rotated from call options into the spot ETF itself, replacing leverage with direct, unleveraged holdings. That distinction matters because options positions can be tactical and short-dated, while a rebuilt spot stake implies a longer holding horizon. It also lands on a BlackRock vehicle, reinforcing how concentrated institutional bitcoin access has become around a handful of large issuers. Whether other macro funds follow the same spot-over-options pattern this quarter is the open question.
