J.P. Morgan Chase is offering customers an actively managed Bitcoin fund. Two of the funds on offer are from Galaxy Digital. The third is a joint effort from asset manager FS Investments and bitcoin company NYDIG.

The Bitcoin fund will be targeted at private wealth clients

JP Morgan will offer the fund to customers with “an aggressive risk tolerance.” They also must have at least $2 million in assets. Investment firms need at least $5 million at the bank to qualify for the new stakes.

The move signals a significant change for traditional banks

Perhaps one of the most unlikely candidates to embrace cryptocurrency as an asset class, JP Morgan’s CEO has a well-documented distaste for Bitcoin.

Although the CEO quickly walked back the “fraud” label, he continues to argue that government regulation of cryptocurrencies is inevitable, 

The fund could be rolled out as soon as mid-year. New York Digital Investment Group will serve as J.P. Morgans custody provider for the project.
