  Unfortunately, Fidelity does not currently offer direct access to cryptocurrencies through their 401k accounts. However, there are alternative ways to invest in cryptocurrencies using your retirement funds. One option is to set up a self-directed IRA or solo 401k, which allows you to have more control over your investments and potentially invest in cryptocurrencies through approved custodians.

  While Fidelity does not directly support cryptocurrency purchases through their 401k accounts, there are other reputable cryptocurrency exchanges that allow you to use your retirement funds to invest in cryptocurrencies. Some popular options include Coinbase, Gemini, and Kraken. It's important to do your own research and choose a trusted exchange that aligns with your investment goals and risk tolerance.

  No, Fidelity 401k accounts do not currently support the direct purchase of cryptocurrencies. However, Fidelity does offer exposure to cryptocurrencies through their subsidiary, Fidelity Digital Assets. This platform provides institutional investors with access to Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, but it is not available to individual 401k account holders at this time.
