With the recent inclusion of #MorganStanley in the Bitcoin market through its exchange-traded fund (ETF), institutional capital has reached a new level of transparency. Since April 17, 2026, the data from the Morgan Stanley Bitcoin Trust (MSBT) is accessible to any user thanks to the Arkham explorer, which allows tracking addresses linked to real-world entities. Currently, the fund holds 1,347 BTC, valued at approximately $102.7 million. This move marks a milestone in the visibility of institutional assets, allowing investors to follow the inflows and outflows of funds in real-time, although with a one-day lag due to the T+1 settlement scheme.
The MSBT, launched on NYSE Arca, arrives to compete with giants like #BlackRock and #Fidelity but with one advantage: its lower fee. With a fee of 0.14%, the Morgan Stanley fund aims to gain ground quickly in a market that has been dominated by funds with higher fees. Although its initial volume of 102,3 million dollars is still far from the 1.320 million dollars of the iShares Bitcoin Trust, the growth potential is significant. Backed by a network of 16,000 financial advisors and asset management of 9.3 trillion dollars, any allocation towards the ETF could make the Morgan Stanley fund grow by leaps and bounds.
