In a recent post shared by the digital asset analyst and researcher known as SMQKE, a tweet from CoinDesk was highlighted, drawing renewed attention to Morgan Stanley’s strategic interest in the cryptocurrency sector.The original tweet from CoinDesk stated that Morgan Stanley is reportedly exploring the launch of cryptocurrency trading via its E*Trade platform. While this development is notable in its own right, SMQKE focuses on a documented position Morgan Stanley took in the past regarding Ripple and its distributed ledger technology.Remember, “Morgan Stanleyhas stated that adopting a Ripple-like payment system could "shorten settlement periods, speed up transactions and reduce the risk of fraud.”“Morgan Stanley considers Ripple to be a leading international payment alternative to Swift.”... https://t.co/Rpmk5HOcjS pic.twitter.com/ovRTx6IYbH— SMQKE (@SMQKEDQG) May 1, 2025Ripple’s Documented Recognition by Morgan StanleySMQKE cited a passage from Volume 36 of the Review of Banking and Financial Law, referencing Morgan Stanley’s remarks from a 2016 report titled Global Insight: Blockchain in Banking—Disruptive Threat or Tool?.The excerpt clearly states that Morgan Stanley identified Ripple’s payment system as capable of shortening settlement periods, increasing transaction speeds, and reducing fraud.Furthermore, Morgan Stanley was documented as having considered Ripple to be “a leading international payment alternative to Swift,” the long-established global financial messaging network.We are on twitter, follow us to connect with us :- @TimesTabloid1— TimesTabloid (@TimesTabloid1) July 15, 2023Infrastructure Considerations Behind the Trading NewsThis context adds weight to the broader implications of Morgan Stanley’s reported crypto expansion. Although the CoinDesk tweet did not mention Ripple, the resurfaced legal and academic documentation reveals that the firm had, at least at one point, publicly acknowledged Ripple’s technology as a viable infrastructure upgrade in the global payments sector.The quote is from a reputable academic publication and directly references a Morgan Stanley-authored analysis, indicating institutional-level consideration of Ripple’s distributed ledger approach.A Broader Strategy Beyond Asset TradingMorgan Stanley’s interest in enabling crypto trading through its E*Trade platform marks an incremental step in integrating digital assets into mainstream finance.However, SMQKE’s post places this move within a broader historical context that suggests Morgan Stanley’s crypto strategy may not merely be about trading functionality but could also encompass infrastructure-level adoption and alignment with blockchain technologies acknowledged by the institution.Although Morgan Stanley has not recently reaffirmed this specific stance on Ripple, the documented record stands as part of its publicly available analysis. As institutional involvement in crypto continues to advance, references like this serve to highlight how leading financial players have been evaluating blockchain applications beyond speculative assets, including payment and settlement innovations such as those enabled by Ripple.Disclaimer: This content is meant to inform and should not be considered financial advice.
