Morgan Stanley Applies for OCC National Trust Bank Charter
Morgan Stanley has submitted an application for a de novo national trust bank charter with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). The new subsidiary, named Morgan Stanley Digital Trust, National Association, aims to provide digital asset services including cryptocurrency custody, transactional execution, and potentially staking operations for client assets. This move indicates Morgan Stanley's intention to enter the institutional Bitcoin custody market independently.
Bitcoin is currently trading near $70,000, with long-term holders reducing their net sales significantly by 87% from February to the present. Whale wallets, which hold between 100,000 and 1,000,000 BTC, have increased their holdings during recent price movements and have not engaged in selling activities. These developments suggest a resurgence of interest and potential recovery in the Bitcoin market.
