JUST IN: BlackRock vs. Morgan Stanley The battle of the titans in Bitcoin ETFs has begun. The Morgan Stanley Bitcoin Trust (MSBT) is now operational. Can it dethrone BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust?


The US bank Morgan Stanley launched its own Bitcoin (BTC) exchange traded fund (ETF) on Wednesday, April 8, 2026. The financial instrument, called the Morgan Stanley Bitcoin Trust, began trading on the market under the ticker symbol MSBT.
This move positions Morgan Stanley as the first major commercial bank to issue its own investment product in the digital currency, now competing on equal footing with giants like BlackRock.
