Morgan Stanley has updated its S-1 filing for a spot Bitcoin ETF, revealing the ticker symbol MSBT for trading on NYSE Arca. The investment bank has added Fidelity as the custodian for the proposed fund, according to the amended filing.
The development positions Morgan Stanley to join the growing list of traditional financial institutions offering Bitcoin exposure through exchange-traded funds. The NYSE Arca listing would provide institutional and retail investors direct access to Bitcoin through a regulated investment vehicle.
