The Fidelity Crypto IRA is designed to provide investors with a convenient and cost-effective way to invest in cryptocurrencies for retirement, with no management fees, custody fees, or trading commissions. The offering is available to individual investors and will be managed by Fidelity's experienced team of investment professionals.
"We're excited to bring this innovative offering to the market, providing our clients with a new way to diversify their retirement portfolios," said Abigail Peman, Head of Fidelity Digital Assets.
