Morgan Stanley is preparing to expand its presence in the crypto space with a comprehensive strategy encompassing digital assets, wealth management, and private markets.
According to Barron’s, the bank plans to enable Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana transactions through its E*Trade platform in the first half of 2026. This will be followed by a dedicated Morgan Stanley crypto wallet, targeted for launch in the second half of 2026.
The wallet developed by the giant institution, which manages approximately $1.8 trillion in assets, will support not only cryptocurrencies but also a wide range of tokenized assets, including tokenized traditional investments and private company shares. This will allow clients to store and transact their digital securities in the same integrated environment as the bank’s existing wealth management infrastructure.

Jed Finn, Head of Wealth Management at Morgan Stanley, argued that digital assets hold a significant place in the bank’s long-term growth strategy, highlighting the institution’s intention to offer direct custody services in this area. Through the new wallet, the bank will position itself as a custodian of its clients’ digital assets, making cryptocurrency manageable alongside traditional financial products.
On the other hand, Morgan Stanley is reportedly also considering the option of tokenizing its shares in private markets. This step aims to speed up processes by improving efficiency in transactions and settlements.
