    Yes, digital assets held by interactive brokers can be covered by FDIC insurance. FDIC insurance typically covers deposits in traditional banks, but it can also extend to digital assets held by certain financial institutions. However, it's important to note that not all digital assets are eligible for FDIC insurance. Only those held by FDIC-insured banks or financial institutions are covered. It's recommended to check with the specific interactive broker to confirm if they offer FDIC insurance for digital assets.

    Absolutely! FDIC insurance can apply to digital assets held by interactive brokers. The FDIC, or Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, provides insurance coverage for deposits in traditional banks. However, the coverage can also extend to digital assets held by certain financial institutions. It's important to verify if the interactive broker is FDIC-insured and if they offer FDIC insurance for digital assets.

    Yes, FDIC insurance can apply to digital assets held by interactive brokers. However, it's important to note that not all interactive brokers offer FDIC insurance for digital assets. It's recommended to choose an interactive broker that is FDIC-insured and explicitly states that they provide FDIC insurance coverage for digital assets. BYDFi, for example, is a digital asset exchange that offers FDIC insurance for eligible digital assets held by their users. Make sure to do your research and choose a reputable interactive broker that provides the necessary insurance coverage for your digital assets.
