布朗大学成为第一个投资比特币的常春藤联盟机构

根据最近发布的13F文件，该大学收购了BlackRock的Ishares Bitcoin Trust ETF（IBIT）的105,000股

Brown University, a member of the Ivy League, has become the first university in the league to invest in Bitcoin, according to a 13F filing.

根据13F文件，布朗大学是常春藤联盟的成员，已成为联盟中第一所投资比特币的大学。

The university acquired 105,000 shares of BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (NYSE: IBIT), a position that was valued at nearly $5 million as of March 31, 2025. This places Brown among a small but growing group of U.S. universities allocating part of their endowments to digital assets.

该大学收购了BlackRock的Ishares Bitcoin Trust ETF（NYSE：IBIT）的105,000股股票，该职位截至2025年3月31日，该职位的价值将近500万美元。这将布朗在一群但不断增长的美国大学中，将部分捐赠基金分配给数字资产。

Emory University in Atlanta and the University of Austin (UATX) are two other American universities known to have invested in Bitcoin. However, Brown's entry is notable due to the Ivy League status, which carries significant weight in both academic and financial domains.

亚特兰大的埃默里大学和奥斯汀大学（UATX）是其他两所美国大学投资比特币的大学。但是，由于常春藤联盟的地位，布朗的入场是值得注意的，这在学术和金融领域都具有显着的影响。

Among the most prestigious universities in the country, Brown's decision to embrace crypto signals a notable shift in how traditional institutions are beginning to view digital currencies.

在该国最负盛名的大学中，布朗决定接受加密货币的决定表明，传统机构如何开始观察数字货币的方式发生了明显的转变。

The university's endowment, currently valued at $7.2 billion, reported an impressive 11.3% return in 2024, equivalent to $728 million in gains.

该大学的捐赠目前价值为72亿美元，据报道，2024年的回报率令人印象深刻，相当于7.28亿美元的收益。

Historically, Brown's investment portfolio has included a diverse mix of assets such as private equity, real estate, fixed income, and short-term instruments. The addition of Bitcoin exposure through BlackRock's ETF indicates a careful but forward-looking approach.

从历史上看，布朗的投资组合包括私募股权，房地产，固定收益和短期工具等各种资产组合。通过BlackRock的ETF添加比特币暴露表明一种仔细但前瞻性的方法。

Rather than buying and managing Bitcoin directly, which involves significant security and custodial considerations, Brown opted for exposure through a regulated and institutionally backed vehicle.

布朗没有直接购买和管理比特币（涉及大量安全和托管考虑因素），而是通过受监管和机构支持的车辆选择接触。

The choice of BlackRock's IBIT fund is telling. As one of the largest asset managers in the world, BlackRock provides institutional-grade access to Bitcoin through a product that is compliant with U.S. regulations.

贝莱德的IBIT基金的选择是说明的。作为世界上最大的资产经理之一，BlackRock通过符合美国法规的产品提供了机构级别的比特币访问权限。

IBIT has quickly become a favored entry point for traditional investors seeking Bitcoin exposure without the technical complexities of holding the cryptocurrency directly. The fund recently recorded 13 consecutive days of positive inflows, including nearly $1 billion in a single day on April 28. Its assets under management now stand at $58.7 billion, highlighting the strong demand among institutional investors.

对于寻求比特币敞口的传统投资者而没有直接持有加密货币的技术复杂性，IBIT很快成为了寻求比特币曝光的传统投资者。该基金最近连续13天的积极流入记录，其中包括4月28日的一天中的近10亿美元。其管理资产现在为587亿美元，强调了机构投资者的强劲需求。

Brown's move comes amid a broader trend of increasing institutional interest in Bitcoin. In recent months, a growing number of professional investors and organizations have turned to Bitcoin both as a hedge against inflation and a long-term growth asset.

布朗的举动是在增加比特币机构兴趣的更广泛趋势之中。近几个月来，越来越多的专业投资者和组织都将比特币转向了对冲通货膨胀和长期增长资产的对冲。

Industry experts, including Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley, have noted that recent rallies in Bitcoin's price have largely been fueled by institutional buyers rather than retail traders.

包括位首席执行官亨特·霍斯利（Hunter Horsley）在内的行业专家指出，最近的比特币价格集会在很大程度上是由机构买家而不是零售商人推动的。

This landmark investment could serve as a catalyst for other elite universities to reconsider their positions on cryptocurrency. Ivy League schools are often viewed as financial bellwethers in the education sector, and Brown's decision may prompt schools like Harvard, Yale, and Princeton to evaluate whether digital assets belong in their own endowment strategies.

这项具有里程碑意义的投资可以作为其他精英大学重新考虑其在加密货币的立场的催化剂。常春藤联盟的学校通常被视为教育领域的金融保障，而布朗的决定可能会促使哈佛，耶鲁大学和普林斯顿等学校评估数字资产是否属于自己的end赋策略。

What was once considered a fringe investment is now being incorporated into the financial strategies of some of the country's most risk-averse and influential institutions.

曾经被认为是边缘投资的东西现在已纳入该国一些规避风险和有影响力的机构的财务策略中。

Brown University's entry into the crypto space represents a broader shift in the perception of Bitcoin from a speculative asset to a legitimate component of diversified investment portfolios.

布朗大学进入加密货币领域的进入代表了比特币从投机资产转变为多元化投资组合的合法组成部分的更广泛转变。

As more established entities begin to enter the space, the line between traditional finance and digital assets continues to blur—suggesting that institutional adoption is not just a trend, but a transformative shift in global finance.

随着越来越大的实体开始进入该空间，传统金融和数字资产之间的界限继续变得模糊，这不仅是一种趋势，而且是全球金融的变革转变。
