One of the world\u2019s oldest investment institutions, Morgan Stanley, has advised clients to allocate 2-4% of their investment portfolios to crypto. With a strong spotlight on Bitcoin as a \u201cscarce asset, akin to digital gold,\u201d Morgan Stanley\u2019s suggestion is a pivot in Wall Street\u2019s stance toward digital assets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On 5 October 2025, Morgan Stanley\u2019s Global Investment Committee (GIC) formally released a set of portfolio allocation guidelines, wherein \u201copportunistic growth portfolios were suggested up to 4% crypto allocation.\u201d Meanwhile, Bitcoin price (BTC) climbed to a new all-time high overnight, reaching about $125,700 during Sunday\u2019s Asia session before pulling back to the low $123,000 range.<\/span><\/p>\n

Commenting on the Morgan Stanley\u2019s pivot, Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley said, \u201cThis is huge. New Special Report from Morgan Stanley GIC: \u201cwe aim to support our Financial Advisors and clients, who may flexibly allocate to cryptocurrency as part of their multi asset portfolios.\u201d GIC guides 16,000 advisors managing $2 trillion in savings and wealth for clients.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

In Horsley\u2019s opinion crypto is entering into its mainstream era.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is huge.<\/p>\n

Is Morgan Stanley Late? GIC Considers Crypto As An \u201cIncreasingly Popular Asset Class\u201d<\/h2>\n

The crypto community on X is divided on the institute\u2019s \u201cup to 4%\u201d guidance. While some welcome the move, others criticise it for \u201ctoo late\u201d and \u201ctoo little\u201d aka 4%.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For \u201cbalanced growth,\u201d Morgan Stanley recommends up to 2% crypto allocation. However, it is still taking a cautious approach as it recommends 0% crypto exposure for \u201cwealth preservation and \u201cincome\u201d portfolios.
