According to insiders, JPMorgan is assessing the possibility of offering cryptocurrency trading services to institutional clients, including spot and derivatives trading, in order to expand its presence in the digital asset sector. This plan is still in its early stages, and the specific launch time will depend on customer demand and market conditions.
This move highlights the continued rise in participation by large Wall Street banks in the digital asset market. Bloomberg reported that the favorable U.S. policy environment toward the crypto industry is also driving traditional financial institutions to accelerate their exploration of related businesses.
Meanwhile, Morgan Stanley plans to offer crypto trading services on its E*Trade platform starting from the first half of 2026. According to CoinGecko data, the total global market value of crypto assets is approximately $3.1 trillion, with Bitcoin accounting for about $1.8 trillion.
