In other news, Goldman Sachs recently became the first major US bank to have made an over-the-counter (OTC) cryptocurrency transaction. Notably, the Wall Street giant bought an OTC Bitcoin non-deliverable option (NDO) from Galaxy Digital, a New York-based cryptocurrency investment firm, run by billionaire Mike Novogratz.

Essentially, it means that Goldman Sachs bought a contract betting on the future price of Bitcoin—rather than actually buying the digital asset itself.
