Interesting things are happening in the world, but not more interesting than Morgan Stanley filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on…

Crypto ETF flows have reversed from selling to buying, with Ethereum and Solana funds attracting millions in inflows since early 2026. Morgan Stanley’s announcement of its own crypto ETFs suggests major financial institutions are increasingly establishing branded products rather than routing through competitors. Some cryptocurrencies, like Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL) and XRP (XRP), have posted strong weekly gains,…
