Why IRAs at Onramp are unique
The Most Secure Way to Hold Bitcoin in Your IRA
Onramp makes it easy to securely hold bitcoin in a tax-advantaged retirement account.
Onramp now offers IRA accounts, secured by Multi-Institution Custody.
With Multi-Institution Custody, three distinct regulated institutions each hold one key: no single institution can move or lose funds alone. Transactions require approval from at least two of the three key holders. This removes single points of failure and aligns with regulatory expectations for retirement accounts.
We've combined our best-in-class Multi-Institution Custody model with the structure of a qualified IRA.
You get unmatched security, compliance, and peace of mind-without managing private keys or wallets yourself.
