Morgan Stanley To Launch Digital Asset Wallet As Part Of Crypto... (2026)

The wallet, expected to launch this year, will support cryptocurrencies and RWAs as the financial services company adds to its suite of crypto investment products.

Morgan Stanley has plans to launch a digital asset wallet in 2026 as the financial services giant continues expanding its crypto investment product offerings to clients.

The wallet is built to support cryptocurrencies and real-world tokenized assets (RWAs), including stocks, bonds and real estate, with plans to support more assets over time, according to Barron's.

In September, the company announced that it would allow users of the E*Trade brokerage platform, which it owns, to trade cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin (BTC), Solana (SOL) and Ether (ETH) in 2026.

Cointelegraph reached out to Morgan Stanley for comment but had not received a response at time of publication.

The announcements show that crypto and blockchain technology are gaining widespread adoption from established financial institutions in the traditional finance world.

Morgan Stanley announced several crypto-related developments for 2026, including several crypto exchange-traded fund (ETF) filings.

The company filed applications with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Tuesday to issue spot BTC and SOL ETFs, which would be “passive” investment funds tracking the spot price of these cryptocurrencies by holding them.

Morgan Stanley also filed for a staked Ether ETF on Tuesday that would hold spot ETH while staking an undisclosed portion of the fund’s ETH to earn staking income.
