Equity Trust Expands Crypto IRA Lineup with Automated and Self-Trading Investing Options

Equity Trust Company has launched its Crypto IRA lineup with two new options for retirement investors to hold digital assets within a tax-advantaged account.

The Automated Crypto IRA uses AI-driven algorithms from Animus Technologies to continuously evaluate market conditions and automatically recommend Bitcoin and Ethereum trades. This solution requires a $25,000 minimum investment and is available to Equity Trust IRA customers.

The Equity Crypto IRA is a self-traded account that allows hands-on investors to buy, sell, and hold a range of cryptocurrencies through Equity Trust's proprietary Digital Trading Platform. Investors can access a variety of eligible digital assets across multiple categories, including large-cap cryptocurrencies, stablecoins, decentralized finance (DeFi), AI & blockchain infrastructure, payments & digital commerce, and blockchain innovation.

Equity Trust emphasizes the security of its digital assets, holding them in institutional-grade custody with cold wallet protection backed by specialty insurance coverage. This approach provides a secure solution for investors to directly own cryptocurrency within their IRA.
