Morgan Stanley is intensifying its focus on digital assets as a key component of its strategic plan for 2026. Reports from Barron’s reveal that the financial powerhouse intends to unveil a digital wallet by the end of this year, complementing its ongoing efforts to expand crypto-related offerings.
Scheduled for release in the latter half of 2026, this new wallet will enable users to manage tokenized assets, including traditional investment vehicles and shares in private companies. This move aligns with Morgan Stanley’s broader vision that integrates workplace financial solutions and private market investments.
In addition, Morgan Stanley aims to facilitate trading of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ether, and Solana via its E*Trade platform during the first half of 2026.
The company continues to build out its expertise in blockchain technology and digital currencies by enhancing client access to digital asset funds. It is also advancing projects related to trading infrastructure, custody services, and tokenization initiatives designed to satisfy increasing demand from institutional investors.
