Key takeaways

  1. Ethereum joins Base. JPM Coin was first rolled out on Base in November 2025 and is now reportedly coming to Ethereum.
  2. Access stays closed. JPM Coin remains restricted to approved institutional participants even though it is issued on public networks.
  3. ETH traded near $2,434. CoinGape reported Ethereum at $2,434 with a 24-hour high of $2,445 and a 42% rise in volume.

What happened

JPMorgan is reportedly expanding its JPM Coin deposit token to Ethereum, according to Bloomberg. The bank is the largest by market capitalization. JPM Coin stands for US dollar deposits held at JPMorgan and lets eligible clients move funds in seconds, at any hour.

Emma Landriault, global head of Kinexys Labs, said crypto companies could use the token for blockchain payments. Financial institutions could use it to settle trades and post collateral. She said JPMorgan picked Ethereum for its liquidity and its existing use among clients.

The token is issued on public networks but stays limited to approved institutional participants. CoinGape reported the ticker as JPMD. Landriault described the move as part of a year of further convergence between Wall Street and crypto.

Why it matters

The Ethereum launch extends a series of network additions. JPMorgan put JPM Coin on Base, an Ethereum layer-2 network built by Coinbase, in November 2025. In January it announced plans to bring the token to the Canton Network.

JPMorgan already has tokenized money market funds MONY and JLTXX on Ethereum mainnet, CoinGape reported. The deposit token adds a cash leg to those products. CoinGape also reported that JPMorgan is expanding its Digital Assets and Blockchain Solutions team.

What the data shows

CoinGape reported Ethereum at $2,434 at the time of writing, after a 24-hour high of $2,445. It said trading volume rose 42% over the prior 24 hours. CoinGecko data showed ETH at $2,434.28 on October 19.

Market capitalization stood at $297,306,703,900 and 24-hour volume at $9,569,129,046.

What is still unclear
