Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas disclosed on the X platform that Morgan Stanley’s Bitcoin ETF is expected to launch in the next two weeks. The ETF will charge a fee of 14 basis points, which is 11 basis points lower than BlackRock’s IBIT, making it the lowest-cost spot Bitcoin ETF in the market. This means that funds using this product will not face conflicts of interest and will have the opportunity to access external assets. Notably, this will be the first Bitcoin spot ETF launched by a bank in the United States. Morgan Stanley currently has approximately 16,000 financial advisors and manages assets totaling $6 trillion, making it a significant entry point for high-net-worth funds, and its entry could have a major impact on the market’s capital structure.
