Interactive Brokers launches crypto trading in US for four tokens NEWS

 

Brokerage firm Interactive Brokers Group is allowing investment advisers registered with the company to trade four cryptocurrencies.

In an Oct. 18 announcement, Interactive Brokers said its Registered Investment Advisers would be able to trade and custody Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), and Litecoin (LTC) for clients using Paxos Trust Company. The firm reported this service was currently only available for its advisers in the United States, but planned to launch crypto trading for global clients in the future.

“Allocating a small percentage of assets to cryptocurrency as part of a well-diversified portfolio has steadily become more commonplace, and advisors may wish to recommend cryptocurrency to their clients,” said Interactive Brokers executive vice president of marketing and product development Steve Sanders.
