Are you paying more than MSBT is worth?

MSBT trades about 0.25% above what its coins are worth, so buyers are paying a little extra.

A fund like this one holds real coins, so its shares should track what those coins are worth. They rarely match to the penny, and a small gap either way is normal.

Morgan Stanley Bitcoin Trust is one of the US Bitcoin ETFs, stock-market funds that hold real Bitcoin on behalf of their shareholders. It's run by Morgan Stanley. When money comes into the fund, it buys Bitcoin; when money leaves, it sells. You buy and sell its shares through a normal brokerage account, like any stock.

This page shows what this one fund holds, in dollars and in Bitcoin, and its slice of all the money in the US Bitcoin funds. The money moving in and out of it since April 2026, what it paid for its coins, and the coins that have left it each have a page of their own.

A single fund's numbers mix two things: how people feel about Bitcoin, and how this fund competes with the other eleven on fees, brand, and where it's easiest to buy. Money can leave one fund and walk straight into a cheaper one next door without anyone actually selling Bitcoin. For the market-wide read, start from the main Bitcoin ETF page.

These funds trade on the stock market, so they're closed on weekends and holidays. The chart has a reading for each day the market was open.
