JPMorgan weighs offering institutional crypto trading as Wall Street doubles down on digital assets

JPMorgan is evaluating crypto trading services for institutional clients, including potential spot and derivatives offerings.

The plans are not yet public and remain under internal review, according to Bloomberg.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. is mulling offering cryptocurrency trading to its institutional clients, deepening Wall Street’s involvement in digital assets as demand for regulated market access continues to rise.

The bank is exploring what products and services its markets division could provide, including potential spot and derivatives trading, according to Bloomberg, citing a person familiar with the plans who asked not to be identified because the discussions are not public.

JPMorgan has historically taken a cautious stance toward direct crypto exposure, even as it has built blockchain-based settlement tools and tokenization platforms. Offering direct trading access, even under an institutional-only framework, would represent a meaningful expansion of its digital-asset footprint.

The plans remain under internal assessment, and no final decisions have been made.

A growing shift across major banks

If adopted, JPMorgan would join a widening group of global banks expanding their crypto capabilities despite uneven regulatory clarity and prolonged policy uncertainty in the U.S.
