Morgan Stanley’s Spot Bitcoin ETF has passed another important milestone. The Morgan Stanley Bitcoin Trust (MSBT) product has received a formal listing notification from the New York Stock Exchange, according to Eric Balchunas, senior ETF analyst at Bloomberg. This development is seen as an important step indicating that the ETF’s launch is imminent.
The move makes Morgan Stanley one of the biggest banks on Wall Street to enter the world of Bitcoin spot ETFs.
According to the information shared, the product will be traded on the New York Stock Exchange’s NYSE Arca platform and will be listed under the code “MSBT US.” According to the listing details, this product is classified as an “exchange traded product” and the announcement date is March 23, 2026. The effective trading date has not yet been determined.
Balciunas also highlighted management fees, which are very important for investors. Morgan Stanley’s ETF fees are expected to be around 0.24%, he said. This rate may be slightly lower than that of one of its biggest competitors, iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT).
