Morgan Stanley filed an S-1 with the SEC on January 6, 2026, for a spot Bitcoin Trust ETF that directly tracks BTC spot prices using benchmarks from major exchanges. The filing also covers a Solana ETF offering staking rewards, expanding the firm’s digital asset lineup post-2024 BTC ETF approvals. This positions Morgan Stanley to meet surging institutional demand amid President Trump’s pro-crypto policies and Bitcoin’s rally toward $100K.
