AI Summary
Morgan Stanley's online brokerage E*Trade officially rolled out spot trading in Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana to eligible customers on the 15th, charging a 50bp trading fee that undercuts both Coinbase and Charles Schwab. The move opens a new institutional-grade retail distribution channel for the three assets and intensifies fee competition, pressuring Coinbase's retail take rate while potentially expanding overall spot flows into BTC, ETH and SOL. Watch early trading volumes on the platform and any Coinbase fee response as the gauge of how much brokerage-channel demand actually materializes.
As a Crypto signal, watch whether it changes price action, volatility, or flows around BTC, SOL, COIN.
