  Sure! Both Scottrade and Interactive Brokers are popular platforms for traditional investments, but unfortunately, they do not currently offer direct access to cryptocurrencies. However, you can still invest indirectly by using other platforms that allow you to trade cryptocurrencies. One option is to open an account with a cryptocurrency exchange like Binance or Coinbase. Once you have an account, you can transfer funds from your Scottrade or Interactive Brokers account to the cryptocurrency exchange and start trading. Keep in mind that you'll need to do your own research on the exchange's security measures and fees before making any transfers.
