JPMorgan Doubles Down on Crypto with “JPMD” Trademark Filing for Digital Asset Trading

Wall Street’s sleeping giant just woke up—and it’s hungry for crypto. JPMorgan quietly filed a trademark application for "JPMD," signaling a potential crypto trading platform that could shake up institutional markets.

Why it matters: When the world’s most systemically important bank starts playing with blockchain, regulators suddenly forget their "dangerous speculation" talking points.

The fine print: No launch date or product details yet—just classic Jamie Dimon strategy. Talk trash about Bitcoin for years, then quietly build infrastructure to profit from it. The filing covers everything from crypto exchange services to blockchain-based settlement systems.

Bottom line: Banks used to fear crypto would disrupt them. Now they’re disrupting the disruptors—with better compliance teams and 100x the lobbying budget.
