IG Goes Full Crypto: London-Listed Platform Now Lets Retail Traders Gamble—Err, Trade—Spot Bitcoin
Traditional finance meets digital gold rush: IG Group, the UK-listed trading giant, just flung open its doors to retail crypto trading. No more CFDs or synthetic exposure—this is the real deal, spot markets and all.
Finally, your aunt can lose money on actual Bitcoin instead of derivatives. Progress!
With regulators still squinting at crypto like it’s a suspicious PDF attachment, IG’s move signals a quiet rebellion. Will the FSA raise an eyebrow? Almost certainly. Will retail traders care when chasing the next 10x? Not a chance.
Another brick in crypto’s wall of legitimacy—or another way for brokers to cash in on volatility addicts. You decide.
