MORGAN STANLEY EXPANDS RETAIL ENCRYPTION SERVICES THROUGH E*TRADE

Morgan Stanley (NYSE: $MS) has completed the roll-out of E*TRADE's encrypted spot transactions, allowing eligible customers access to Bitcoin (BTC), ETH (ETH) and Solana (SOL). Users can buy, sell and hold these three types of assets through the linked Zerohash account, digital asset hold-ups are displayed with shares at a transaction cost of 50 basis points, and the transfer function is expected to be rolled out later this year. The latest Morgan Stanley survey showed that 32 per cent of respondents felt that a well-known company that could be trusted was an important factor in the choice of an encrypted platform, and 26 per cent considered it important to see digital assets together with traditional investments. The encryption rollout was part of the upgrade of the E*TRADE platform, which also included some stock transactions and new tools。
