Completing two-way stablecoin funding for eligible U.S. clients, the update leans on Zerohash and Paxos to route and custody transfers.

Interactive brokers expands stablecoin funding as multi asset competition intensifies

Overview

  • The firm announced the change on July 14, 2026, expanding token coverage and turning inbound stablecoin deposits into bidirectional funding for eligible U.S. customers.
  • Twelve tokens were added through infrastructure partners, with nine listings via Zerohash and three via Paxos that include Aave, Uniswap and Pax Gold.
  • Eligible U.S. clients can now withdraw USD balances that are automatically converted to USDC, PYUSD or RLUSD and sent to external wallets 24 hours a day with no IBKR transfer fees.
  • Interactive Brokers does not custody crypto directly; Zerohash and Paxos execute trades and hold assets, and availability of tokens and bidirectional transfers varies by Interactive Brokers affiliate and jurisdiction.
  • The change lowers friction between brokerage balances and blockchain wallets, pressures competitors on cost and speed, and was followed by an intraday IBKR share rise of about 2.2%.
