New developments regarding Morgan Stanley’s spot Bitcoin ETF, expected to launch soon, have attracted attention in the industry.

According to the updated S-1 filing by the US investment bank, the fund, which is planned to trade under the ticker “MSBT,” will have a management fee of only 0.14% (14 basis points). This rate indicates a significant competitive advantage among competing products in the market.

Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas described the fee structure as “shocking,” noting that Morgan Stanley’s ETF could be the lowest-cost product among existing spot Bitcoin ETFs. According to Balchunas, this pricing makes it easier for advisors within the bank’s extensive asset management network to choose the product, while also having the potential to attract external investor inflows. The analyst also stated that the ETF could launch within the next two weeks.

Another Bloomberg analyst, James Seyffart, described the development as a “big move.” Seyffart noted that the 0.14% fee was aggressive pricing for the sector and predicted that the ETF could begin trading in early April.

If the ETF is approved, Morgan Stanley will become the first major bank in the US to directly issue a spot Bitcoin ETF. This is seen as a significant milestone in the integration of traditional financial institutions into crypto assets and could further intensify fee competition in the ETF market.
