TechFlow News, March 25: According to a PRNewswire report, investment app Public announced that cryptocurrency trading functionality is now officially available for Traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs. Users can trade crypto assets—including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana—within their retirement accounts and potentially benefit from tax-deferred or tax-free gains.
Previously, mainstream investors lacked convenient avenues to include crypto assets in their retirement portfolios. With this update, Public has directly integrated cryptocurrency trading into its IRA infrastructure, enabling users to manage crypto assets, stocks, and options within a single account and build more diversified retirement portfolios.
Leif Abraham, Co-CEO and Co-Founder of Public, stated: “Cryptocurrencies have evolved from an experimental asset class into a global one—but supporting mechanisms in the retirement investing space have yet to catch up.”
