The spot Bitcoin ETF issued by a major American bank, where Morgan Stanley's Bitcoin Trust (MSBT) was listed on the NYSE Arca with an annual management fee of 0.14%, the lowest in the market.



The product began trading on April 8, 2026, making Morgan Stanley the first Wall Street bank to launch a spot Bitcoin ETF under its name. The platform Coinbase provides Bitcoin custody through cold storage, while Bank of New York Mellon handles the safekeeping and management of cash, according to the product file details.
The digital currency launch comes at a time when Bitcoin's price reached $71,489, up 5.07% in 24 hours. The Fear and Greed Index stands at 17 (Extreme Fear), which is completely at odds with the institutional confidence indicated by the launch.
