The source states:
“Goldman Sachs has been onboarding a small number of clients to actively trade the product, according to the source. It is also exploring ways to custody cryptocurrency for customers.”
Although the bank is may develop such a product, there’s still some uncertainty, due to the fact that even futures for Ethereum (ETH) don’t trade on a regulated U.S. exchange. It's also stated that the bank has onboarded just a "small number of clients" to trade the derivative.
