Morgan Stanley has filed S-1 registration statements to launch Bitcoin and Solana exchange-traded funds in the United States.
The filings were submitted to the US Securities and Exchange Commission as investor demand for regulated crypto products rises.
The proposed funds are the Morgan Stanley Bitcoin Trust and the Morgan Stanley Solana Trust.
Both ETFs are designed as passive vehicles that track the price of their underlying tokens.
The funds would seek listing on public exchanges following additional regulatory filings.
Morgan Stanley said the ETFs could open crypto exposure to more than 19 million wealth management clients.
Early 2026 saw strong demand for spot Bitcoin ETFs, with $1.1bn in inflows over two trading days.
Morgan Stanley Investment Management is listed as sponsor, with CSC Delaware Trust Company as trustee.
The bank said most private keys would be held in cold storage, with a smaller portion in hot wallets.
The ETFs will not engage in speculative trading of the underlying assets.
Morgan Stanley has gradually expanded crypto access for clients, including retirement accounts.
The move follows similar steps by other major US financial institutions into crypto ETFs.
At the time of reporting, Bitcoin price was $92,859.93.
