Morgan Stanley adds Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana trading to E*TRADE

Morgan Stanley has launched spot cryptocurrency trading on its E*TRADE platform, allowing eligible U.S. clients to buy, sell and hold Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana. The service is provided through a partnership with digital‑asset infrastructure provider zerohash; crypto assets are displayed alongside traditional holdings but are kept in a separate zerohash account that is not covered by FDIC or SIPC protection.

Transactions are priced at 0.50% of the trade value (50 basis points) with a minimum $10 and a maximum $500,000 per order. A future update, expected in 2026, will let clients transfer digital assets between accounts. The rollout expands Morgan Stanley’s digital‑asset strategy and reflects growing demand for integrated crypto access among self‑directed investors.
