Crypto in an IRA: Why a Qualified Custodian is Crucial

IRA owners are not permitted to have physical possession of the assets held within their IRA. Assets must be safeguarded by an approved or qualified custodian, according to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) and the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).

For cryptocurrencies, this means the account owner cannot be in possession of the private keys to the digital wallet of any cryptocurrency held within their IRA. A qualified cryptocurrency custodian such as Equity Trust Company is required for safeguarding private keys.

A custodian must be a bank, a trust company, or other entity approved by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Learn more about how we’re regulated.

Equity Trust’s CryptoConnect platform provides flexibility and transparency for your clients.

State-of-the-Art Cryptocurrency Security

When it comes to cryptocurrency storage and security, not all platforms are created equal. Equity Trust and our third-party providers use rigorous controls to keep cryptocurrency investments and information secure.

  • Best-in-class insurance: Insurance procured for loss, damage, destruction, or theft of digital assets
  • Security: Multi-layer approach to security eliminates single points of failure
  • Protection: Military-grade digital asset technology solution
  • Online security: Sophisticated, established cyber-security measures protect client account access
