JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley are increasing their crypto exposure even as Bitcoin falls.

JPMorgan more than doubled its IBIT stake to $355.7 million and increased its Ethereum ETF holdings by 338%.

Morgan Stanley raised its IBIT position 23% to 16.5 million shares and also added new exposure to a Solana fund.

The buying came despite Bitcoin falling sharply in the first half of 2026, while spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded net outflows this week.
