JPM Coin Ethereum Expansion Planned for Institutions

JPMorgan plans to expand its JPM Coin to Ethereum for institutional clients, offering 24-hour transfers. The coin represents dollar deposits at JPMorgan and is not for retail use. The move follows its launch on Base in November 2025, with no specific Ethereum launch date announced. JPMorgan's private network processes over $7 billion daily, but this does not reflect JPM Coin activity.
