J.P. Morgan explores direct cryptocurrency trading services for institutional clients.
The bank is already expanding its digital asset infrastructure, including:
Launching a tokenized money market fund on $ETH, allowing institutions to hold organized cash and yield on-chain.
Setting up a JPM coin issuance for value transfer across public blockchains with banking controls.
Building around Kinexys, which supports institutional settlement and blockchain-based financial services.
Direct cryptocurrency trading will benefit from these developments, giving large clients a way to access crypto markets through J.P. Morgan itself, without relying on exchanges or specialized platforms.
This service targets institutions, funds, and corporations, not retail investors.
With nearly $4 trillion in assets under management, J.P. Morgan's entry into this space could significantly impact the allocation of large capital to cryptocurrencies.
