VISI.NEWS | BANDUNG – Interactive Brokers, a leading global brokerage firm, is reportedly evaluating the use of stablecoins such as USDC (USD Coin) and USDT (Tether) as an option for funding client brokerage accounts.

This move signals a growing openness among traditional financial institutions toward blockchain technology and digital assets, as demand rises from crypto-savvy investors and digital derivatives traders.

According to early reports from Bloomberg and interviews with Interactive Brokers executives, the company is currently conducting internal reviews and regulatory consultations to ensure that any implementation of stablecoins remains compliant with international financial regulations.

Allowing stablecoin deposits could streamline cross-border transactions, reduce transfer fees, and provide more flexibility for clients operating in regions with limited banking infrastructure.

If approved, Interactive Brokers would be among the first major brokerages in the world to integrate stablecoin funding, following similar steps by platforms like Robinhood.
