Zvyšování jeho Bitcoin Expozice
Although Morgan Stanley has not made direct purchase of Bitcoin, it has been open to cryptocurrency for a while. It became the first U.S bank to provide its clients access to Bitcoin funds back in March. In other SEC filings, the bank has been consistent with its addition of exposure to Bitcoin. In June, Morgan Stanley revealed that it bought 28,289 GBTC shares worth $1.3 million through its Europe Opportunity Fund, though that was a relatively small investment compared with today’s filings.
The filing in August also indicated that the bank increased its indirect exposure to Bitcoin by buying more than one million Grayscale Bitcoin Trust shares, which were worth around $40 million at the time.
The investment bank has been investing in crypto firms as well. In January, it invested $500 million in MicroStrategy. It has followed up with investments in other funds including Galaxy Digital, and also a fund by a joint effort with Bitcoin company NYDIG and asset manager FS Investments.
Problémy se stupni šedi lze vyřešit konverzí na ETF
Analysts have noted that the filing is coming at a critical time for GBTC which has been struggling for some time. The fund has faced competition from the new Bitcoin futures ETFs that were launched last month and is currently trading at around an 11% discount.
Nicméně, Grayscale plans to convert the fund into a spot-settled Bitcoin ETF and has applied with the SEC to do so. While the application awaits approval like the rest of its kind, the market remains optimistic for Bitcoin adoption despite the price of Bitcoin struggling in the market. Bitcoin is currently trading at about $57,287, down 17% in the last 14 days.
