Morgan Stanley’s launch of its bitcoin ETF is a huge milestone in the annals of crypto. The massive inflows on its opening day ($34 million, most likely all by Morgan Stanley clients) prove there’s massive demand among wirehouse clients and equally massive support among wirehouse reps. The successful debut of the firm’s bitcoin ETF will compel every other brokerage firm to do likewise – and when they do, they will enjoy similar success. And because Morgan Stanley priced their ETF at just 14 bps, we may experience another price war, like when the first bitcoin ETFs launched in Jan 2024. In fact, the new Morgan Stanley crypto ETFs (starting with their first, bitcoin, with ETH and SOL to come) will have a three-fold impact on the market: First, they will attract assets from other crypto ETFs because they are cheaper (sometimes massively cheaper, depending on the competitor). Second, because these ETFs come from a trusted name in the financial services industry, they will bring new asset flows to crypto as Morgan Stanley’s 16,000 financial advisors allocate to them. And third, these new ETFs help legitimize crypto by virtue of having one the nation’s largest brokerage firms issue their own funds (which is much bigger statement than merely putting others’ funds on their platform). The result; broader adoption of crypto by investors nationwide. Consider the impact: Morgan Stanley manages $7 trillion. Its clients depend on their advisors for investment recommendations, and until now, Morgan Stanley advisors have not recommended bitcoin. Now they can – and they are. The first day’s flows represent a pace of $7 billion piling into bitcoin in just the first year. And by pricing their ETF at just 14 bps, Morgan Stanley both eliminates any criticism over conflicts of interest and gives their advisors a strong argument for recommending its fund over any of the competitors. This will likely lead to a price war as the other ETF providers are forced to respond. It will also force all the other brokerage firms to engage – to avoid losing clients and AUM to Morgan Stanley. This flywheel is just starting to spin. The fee war not only benefits investors, it demonstrates to them that there’s a huge demand for this asset – causing those who have not yet invested (either because of high fees or perceived lack of investor interest) to finally invest. Those new flows will increase the price of bitcoin over time while expanding the number of people who own it. And all that is good for bitcoin. All this means it’s essential that all financial advisors get the knowledge they need to effectively advise their clients. We’re seeing an uptick in enrollments in our CBDA program, and it’s easy to see why. It’s time you too became Certified in Blockchain and Digital Assets. Visit DACFP.com to learn more – before your clients ditch you for another advisor ready and willing to give them effective advice on crypto.

With its folding wings, the Aero-Car was the first promising road-to-sky vehicle. Prototypes could reach 60 mph on the ground and 110 mph in the sky. 1966.

I think every rink should have a “Rink Rat” time. A time slot in the early afternoon after school where it’s open for kids to come out on the ice and have unstructured time to play or work on their game.  You’ll have kids out there of all different ages and abilities and it’s a time to fall in love with the rink and the game. I’ve seen it in places like Minnesota and it leads to great mentorship, kids figuring out how to use the ice on their own, and passion for the game. It can also be profitable for private rinks. As Michael Scott says: “Win, win, win” We talked all about how to develop “RINK RATS” on our latest 10 minute episode.

Corey LaJoie has changed earning points from Cup to truck, so he would be eligible for the $50K bonus this weekend. ... Cleetus McFarland has changed from truck to OReilly ... when you change, your points reset to 0 in the original series (and you start with 0 in the new series).
