Goldman Lampe Private Bank spent €120 million on Bitcoin in June, per Bitcoin Magazine. At current rates, that's roughly $137 million.
The timing was deliberate. BTC dropped about 18% through the month, from around $73,674 at the June open to about $58,500 by June 30. The bank bought into that move.
Goldman Lampe is a UAE institution founded in 1934, based in Ras al Khaimah. It claims to be the first regulated bank globally to offer crypto term deposits. The product lets wealthy clients earn yield on digital assets under a licensed framework.
And that's the catch. The bank shared the euro figure and nothing else. There's no Bitcoin count, no execution price. One number without context isn't a position disclosure.
If you're tracking institutional accumulation, this is a new name on the list. It is still single-source as of today. No third-party confirmation yet, and the tape hasn't moved on it.
Goldman Lampe released a euro figure without a coin count or average cost. That is not a disclosure. A bank claiming to be the first in crypto under a regulated framework owes that number to the market.
Watch for a second source or a Goldman Lampe custody filing confirming the Bitcoin count and execution price within 30 days.
