In a press release shared with Finance Magnates, the brokerage detailed that the crypto deposit services will be enabled for four digital currencies - Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Tether (USDt), and USD Coin (USDC).
These tokens can be directly deposited from the user wallets to their MT4 or Juno Auto Trader accounts.
Clients of the brokerage can also receive Cryptocurrencies directly into their wallets while making a withdrawal.
