JPMorgan To Allow Clients To Buy Bitcoin, Says Jamie Dimon

Wall Street’s love-hate affair with Bitcoin takes another twist. Jamie Dimon—the same CEO who once called crypto ’a fraud’—just flipped the script. JPMorgan will now let institutional clients buy Bitcoin through its wealth management arm. Talk about a regulated U-turn.

Behind the move: client pressure and FOMO. Even traditional finance giants can’t ignore the asset class anymore—not when yields are rotting and clients demand exposure. The irony? Dimon’s team spent years dismissing Bitcoin as ’worthless.’ Now they’ll profit from facilitating trades.

One cynical take: Banks hate crypto until they can charge fees on it. The more volatile the market, the juicier the spreads. Welcome to financial innovation, Wall Street-style—where principles bend faster than a blockchain forks.
