Morgan Stanley launches Bitcoin ETF with $30mln inflows – Details

Morgan Stanley launched its Bitcoin ETF (MSBT) on April 8, becoming the first major Wall Street bank to do so. The fund recorded $30.6 million in first-day inflows, a relatively modest amount compared to earlier spot Bitcoin ETF debuts from firms like Bitwise and Fidelity. However, MSBT distinguishes itself with a competitive expense ratio of 14 basis points, making it one of the cheapest available. The launch reflects growing institutional acceptance of Bitcoin, particularly among high-net-worth clients. It occurred amid a period of market volatility, with Bitcoin trading above $71,000 despite broader fluctuations. The move signals traditional finance's increasing conviction in crypto as a lasting asset class.
