Invest in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency with Bitcoin IRA


Recommended Posts

So you want to invest in Bitcoin? There’s now a service that I just found called Bitcoin IRA that makes it extremely easy and pain-free to invest in Bitcoin as well as other cryptocurrencies including Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Ripple, Litecoin, and Bitcoin Cash.

The difference between Bitcoin IRA and investing in Bitcoin yourself is that if you use Bitcoin IRA, you are creating an official retirement investment vehicle. Now because of this, as you would imagine, starting a retirement account that hold Bitcoins and/or other cryptocurrency will require significantly more steps and procedures to set up than with cash purchases. Which is why Bitcoin IRA offers a full-service (and licensed) solution that facilitates the process for account set up, rollover of funds from an existing IRA, execution of a live trade, and moving funds to a secure digital wallet for all account types.

In terms of what kinds of retirement accounts that can be rolled over into a Bitcoin IRA–the answer is pretty much any. You can rollover funds from an existing IRA, Roth IRA, SEP IRA, SIMPLE IRA, 403b, or 401k into a self-directed Bitcoin IRA account. At the end of the day what you will have is an IRA account that can hold various cryptocurrencies and perhaps most importantly, it’s a tax deferred account. Because it’s an official retirement account, the tax rules are the same as any other IRA you may have open, so your Bitcoin IRA account will receive tax deferred status, allowing it to appreciate in value without immediate tax liability. After you reach retirement age of 59 ½ and begin withdrawing funds, you will pay taxes at that time. Additionally, as you would expect, if you wanted to withdraw funds prior to turning 59 ½ you would be charged a penalty. That being said, you can absolutely sell your funds so long as it is used to reinvest in an IRA or is held in your BitGo wallet in a liquid state.

Once you are ready to make the investment with Bitcoin IRA, there’s a couple things you need to know. The first is that there is a $20,000 minimum investment. The second is that there is an initial one-time service fee that varies depending on investment amount (the fee, according to Bitcoin IRA, is intended to cover the assistance with the setup and rolling over your retirement funds). And lastly, there is a minimal custodian and security fee.

This is the first service of this kind that I’ve run across which is why I thought it was worth sharing. It’s an easy way to invest in Bitcoin long-term. That being said, there are a few other things I should note:

  • Currently there is no way to transfer Bitcoins or any other cryptocurrency that you already own into your Bitcoin IRA account.
  • You cannot use an exchange such as Coinbase to buy Bitcoin for your Bitcoin IRA. Everything must go through Bitcoin IRA.

Obviously this is a huge deal for most people, we’re talking about retirement savings, so definitely spend time and think through how much you would be willing to invest (and potentially lose) before making any investments. Also, I’d definitely give the ebook created by Bitcoin IRA a read before doing anything. I believe in cryptocurrencies and think there’s a definite future there, but I can’t stress this enough: do your own homework.

Hmm, an interesting approach to buying Bitcoin. I will study this in more detail so that I can already make some informed decisions on this issue. To be honest, I would not mind this approach when buying bitcoin, but I can't make hasty decisions. I always come here https://www.vaffatoken.com/en/ and I follow the cryptocurrency market. I myself make up schedules for the coming months and already draw conclusions. Your method of buying bitcoin is not yet fully clear to me. That is, I understand the concept, but the very essence is still unclear to me. But if everything goes well, then I will definitely try it, because it is something interesting and new for me. Thanks!

All tokens are decentralized currencies, and therefore no economic and political event can affect their quotes, unlike fiat currencies. But promotion and popularization can have a big effect. That’s why the listing of cryptocurrency https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/22/05/ab27380528/how-people-are-earning-on-crypto-listing-in-2022 is taking place. This procedure, carried out by promotion specialists, allows you to bring the token to the exchange and increase its quotes. As a rule, the price of a token begins to react to the news about the listing on the exchange at once.
