#摩根士丹利增持千枚BTC In July 2026, an on-chain intelligence platform’s monitoring showed that over the past two weeks, Morgan Stanley increased its holdings via its spot Bitcoin ETF “MSBT,” adding nearly 1,000 BTC and bringing its total holdings to 5,761 BTC, worth approximately $370 million.

This buy-in method is worth paying attention to: it was not a one-time large purchase, but rather multiple staged transfers carried out through Coinbase Prime during a market pullback, including inflows such as 495.8 BTC, 171.9 BTC, 166.2 BTC, and others. Arkham described this pattern as a typical “buying the dip.” At that time, the Bitcoin price was trading in a range of $61,500 to $64,000, having retreated by about 50% from the historical high of around $126,000 in October 2025.

The accumulation took place after MSBT began trading on NYSE Arca on April 8, 2026. As the first spot Bitcoin ETF independently issued by a major U.S. bank, MSBT charged a 0.14% management fee, making it the cheapest product of its kind in the market at the time. In June, Morgan Stanley Wealth Management also established a referral partnership with Galaxy Digital, allowing eligible high-net-worth clients to transfer crypto assets in kind into regulated investment vehicles, with speed up to 75% faster. By the end of June, its holdings were about 4,784 BTC; in just two weeks, they rose to 5,761 BTC.

The signal this move sends is very clear: top-tier investment banks are treating Bitcoin as an asset worth holding long term, not as a short-term speculative tool. Since May, Morgan Stanley has not sold any BTC. Standard Chartered maintained its $100,000 target price for Bitcoin by the end of 2026, and its head of digital asset research said the current level is “a screaming buy.” When Wall Street giants quietly add to positions during market panic, the message they send carries more weight than any calls from crypto influencers.
