As an experienced trader who’s relied on a variety of brokers over the years, I am always attentive to the security and flexibility of deposit options. With DEGIRO, my direct experience—and a careful review of their official processes—makes it clear that cryptocurrency deposits such as Bitcoin or USDT are not supported. In my case, all funding had to be done through a traditional bank transfer directly from a registered bank account in my name. This method, while slower than some more modern alternatives, adds a layer of traceability and security that is especially important given the high risks associated with unregulated brokers. Additionally, DEGIRO’s infrastructure is built around transparency and compliance, even as it faces issues regarding regulatory clarity. The exclusive reliance on bank transfers for both deposits and withdrawals appears to be part of their risk management and customer verification protocol. While this lack of crypto support may be limiting for some, for me it signals a conservative approach that prioritizes regulatory norms and the protection of client funds—elements I consider essential, particularly with a broker that is flagged for potential risk and lacking clear regulatory oversight. Ultimately, if seamless cryptocurrency integration is important for your trading, you’ll need to look elsewhere; DEGIRO simply isn’t structured to accommodate that funding method.
