Wells Fargo is planning to allow its advisors to offer Bitcoin ETFs to selected clients, similar to Morgan Stanley’s recent strategy.

This initiative aligns with the rising demand for Bitcoin investments among clients. 

Crypto insider Andrews AP Abacus previously hinted at Morgan Stanley’s move and now suggests Wells Fargo will soon follow, potentially expanding their offerings to include other ETFs such as BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust and Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund.

John Reed Stark, a former SEC Enforcement Chief, criticized Morgan Stanley’s decision, warning that financial planners could risk losing their credentials due to the high risks associated with cryptocurrency investments. 

Despite these concerns, the SEC-approved Bitcoin ETFs from BlackRock and Fidelity are seen as tools for diversifying investment portfolios, contributing to the broader acceptance of Bitcoin.

BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF has garnered significant interest, with major holders including Millennium Management, Capula Management, and Schonfeld Strategic Advisors. 

Additionally, BlackRock’s Ethereum ETF is also attracting substantial investments, even amid market uncertainties.
