Morgan Stanley adds spot crypto trading on E*TRADE via Zero Hash

The new offering lets eligible customers view crypto holdings alongside stocks, with a 50-basis-point trading fee and crypto transfers planned later this year.

Morgan Stanley has launched spot trading for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana on its E*TRADE platform, enabling eligible customers to buy, sell, and hold the three cryptocurrencies. Digital assets are held in linked accounts managed through crypto infrastructure provider Zero Hash rather than by Morgan Stanley itself, according to Decrypt.

Trades are executed through Zero Hash, and the rollout includes an E*TRADE platform update that allows investors to see their cryptocurrency holdings alongside other investments. The launch also carries a 50-basis-point fee for crypto trades, while crypto transfer functionality is expected later this year, the outlet reported.

The move follows Morgan Stanley’s earlier efforts to expand into crypto products, including ETF filings for spot Bitcoin and Solana in January. In addition, the firm has previously discussed tokenization plans, tokenized money market funds, and tax management tools for digital assets, and introduced a money market fund framework aimed at stablecoin issuers under the GENIUS Act later this year, Decrypt added.

Morgan Stanley first disclosed plans to bring crypto trading to E*TRADE in September 2025, with an initial focus on Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana through Zero Hash. With the rollout now live, the bank is continuing its broader push to integrate digital asset capabilities into its brokerage offering, as described by Decrypt.
