Morgan Stanley has taken another step into the world of cryptocurrencies by starting cryptocurrency trading on its E-Trade platform, which is scheduled to launch in 2025. According to Bloomberg, the Wall Street giant Morgan Stanley has rolled out cryptocurrency trading services through its E-Trade subsidiary online brokerage firm. The platform will charge a fee of approximately 0.5% per transaction. This rate is lower than that of competitors such as Coinbase, Robinhood, and Charles Schwab.
The service is currently in the pilot testing stage and is expected to be available to all 8.6 million E-Trade clients by the end of the year. Jed Finn, head of asset management at Morgan Stanley, said: “The launch of this service should be viewed not simply as trading cryptocurrencies with lower fees. In some sense, it is a strategy to eliminate those trying to eradicate intermediaries.” In addition to Bitcoin and Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL) will also be added to the platform in the near future.
This move is seen as part of Morgan Stanley’s strategy to expand its range of cryptocurrency-related services and bring clients who previously used other platforms into its own financial ecosystem.
