Fidelity Allows Clients to View Digital Curriencies on Its Website

edited August 2017 in Off-Topic
Fidelity Investments has started allowing clients to use its website to view their holdings of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies held through digital wallet provider Coinbase, the company said on Wednesday. The initiative, previously tested with the Boston-based money manager's employees, is a rare example of an established financial services company warming up to cryptocurrencies.

"This is an experiment in the spirit of learning what these crypto assets are like and how our customers may want to interact with them," Hadley Stern, senior vice president and managing director at Fidelity Labs, the company's innovation unit, said in an interview.Bitcoin hit a record high on Tuesday, with one unit of bitcoin trading at above $3,400 on Coinbase.
