According to the latest reports, Wall Street giant Morgan Stanley has submitted an S-1 filing to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, planning to launch spot-style Bitcoin and Solana trust products, primarily targeting high-net-worth clients and a broader wealth management platform.
The timing of this move is highly significant. Since last year, the trading volume of U.S. spot cryptocurrency ETFs has surpassed $2 trillion, thanks to the more convenient listing standards introduced by the SEC in 2025 and the overall positive regulatory environment. As institutional clients' crypto asset allocations become compliant, Morgan Stanley is competing alongside industry giants like BlackRock and Fidelity to capture this wave of institutional demand growth.
To some extent, digital assets are moving from the periphery to the core of the financial system. When traditional financial institutions like Morgan Stanley, with their massive scale, begin to officially deploy in Bitcoin and Solana, it indicates a structural shift in the market—this is no longer just a game for traders and enthusiasts, but a redefinition of the entire wealth management ecosystem.

Morgan Stanley enters the scene, Wall Street is really getting serious. This time is different.
Big institutions are all vying for positions, what are retail investors hesitating for?
With a transaction volume of 2 trillion, it shows that the money is already moving.
Finally, the compliance issue has arrived.
Traditional finance is starting to play with BTC and SOL, this is a sign of mainstream adoption.
