Strategy CEO Phong Le will join Amy Oldenburg, Morgan Stanley’s head of digital assets, at the Wynn next Wednesday to discuss long-term Bitcoin strategy and institutional adoption.
The discussion will examine why emerging markets have driven crypto adoption and what lessons traditional finance can draw from that trajectory.
The session is part of the “Strategy World,” an annual event hosted by the leading Bitcoin treasury company that brings together business leaders and professionals to explore the intersection of artificial intelligence, business intelligence, and Bitcoin innovation.
Scheduled to take place from February 23-26, the platform features several figures from prominent companies, including Strive, Metaplanet, BitGo, Morgan Stanley, Coinbase, Anchorage Digital, and Bitwise, to name a few.
Michael Saylor, Strategy’s executive chairman and founder, will deliver a keynote speech on digital credit on February 24.
Morgan Stanley’s digital asset push
Morgan Stanley has accelerated its push into regulated crypto offerings since the 2024 debut of US-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs. It was the first Wall Street giant to embrace these products, letting its advisors pitch them to their clients.
The bank’s $1.8 trillion asset management arm is seeking the regulatory nod to offer funds tied to Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana, as well as eyeing a digital wallet offering later this year.
Morgan Stanley’s global investment committee has suggested clients consider allocating between 2% and 4% of their portfolios to digital assets. The firm has characterized Bitcoin as a form of digital gold while describing Ethereum as a foundational computational infrastructure.
