  • Morgan Stanley Launches Lowest-Cost Bitcoin ETF MSBT, Secures $34M Debut
    April 13, 2026, 10:20 AM EDT. Morgan Stanley entered the Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) market with the launch of MSBT, offering a 0.14% annual fee, the lowest among spot Bitcoin ETFs. The ETF garnered a strong start, pulling in $34 million in net inflows on its first trading day, purchasing about 430 BTC. This positions MSBT among the top 1% of ETF launches in the past year. Unlike competitors such as BlackRock's IBIT, which charges 0.25%, MSBT benefits from Morgan Stanley's network of 16,000 financial advisors, who now recommend MSBT directly to clients seeking Bitcoin exposure. The move shifts Bitcoin ETF flows within Morgan Stanley's wealth management platform, keeping fees and asset management in-house and potentially offering considerable savings for high-net-worth investors.
