IBKR should take bitcoin

I wish they'd take direct deposits of bitcoin. I have to send bitcoin to Paxos, get 6 confirmations, exchange to USD, wire to chase because Paxos can't handle IBKR's fancy wire instructions, then wire from chase to IBKR. Takes 4-6 hours during a business day.

 

try coin base in the US.Maybe that is simpler?

 

Coinbase banned me for being a professional gambler.

 

Why should they?
Maybe they could pay you in postage stamps?

 

What???

 

It's against Coinbase's terms of service to send money to casinos
