Interactive Brokers Adds Chainlink, Avalanche, Sui to Crypto Offering

Global brokerage giant Interactive Brokers has expanded its cryptocurrency offering by adding Chainlink (LINK), Avalanche (AVAX), and Sui (SUI) to its trading platform, the company said on Monday.

The new tokens join a lineup that already includes Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), Ripple (XRP), and Dogecoin (DOGE). The latest additions are available to eligible clients through Zero Hash LLC, a regulated crypto infrastructure provider.

“Recognizing the growing popularity of cryptocurrency trading, we continue to expand the number of digital assets available on our platform,” said Steve Sanders, Executive Vice President of Marketing and Product Development at Interactive Brokers.

Clients can trade cryptocurrencies alongside stocks, options, futures, currencies, bonds, and ETFs in a unified interface across more than 160 global markets. Crypto commissions range from 0.12% to 0.18% of trade value, with a minimum of $1.75 per order, and no added spreads or custody fees.

Interactive Brokers, which posted $9.3 billion in revenue last year, is partnering with Paxos Trust Company and Zero Hash LLC to handle trading and custody. Zero Hash reported processing $20 billion in transactions across 200 countries as of mid-2024.

Edward Woodford, CEO of Zero Hash, said the firm’s infrastructure was designed to support institutional-grade platforms. “By enabling seamless access to tokens including Chainlink, Avalanche, and Sui, we’re pleased to help IBKR expand its crypto lineup,” he said.

Interactive Brokers allows clients to trade crypto 24/7, hold both USD and digital assets in their accounts, place non-marketable limit orders, and withdraw to external wallets.

The expansion reflects growing demand from institutional and retail investors as more financial firms race to broaden access to digital assets.

Interactive Brokers began its crypto journey in July 2021, initially targeting retail investors. Shortly after, the company expanded crypto trading to institutional customers in the United States. The company extended its services to UK customers in 2024, allowing both retail and institutional investors to trade Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and Bitcoin Cash, alongside the traditional investment products offered by IBKR.
