JPMorgan Plans to Let Clients Borrow Against Crypto ETFs

  • In June 2025, JPMorgan revealed plans to permit its global clients to pledge digital asset holdings, such as exchange-traded funds tied to Bitcoin, as collateral for borrowing.
  • This move follows the introduction and rapid growth of spot Bitcoin ETFs since January 2024 and reflects a shifting U.S. regulatory environment favoring digital assets.
  • The bank will begin with BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust and will treat crypto holdings like stocks or art when assessing collateral across client segments.
  • Bitcoin’s price reached a record $111,980 in May 2025, and JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon reiterated his skepticism, saying, "I'm not a fan of Bitcoin" but supports clients' rights to invest.
  • This policy expansion marks a significant step for JPMorgan into crypto finance and might increase the use of digital assets in lending while serving varied client demands.
