Israel Discount Bank Partners With Fireblocks to Launch In-App Crypto Trading

Israel Discount Bank will enable direct in-app trading of Bitcoin and Ethereum starting November 26, 2026. The lender partnered with Fireblocks to provide digital wallet and custody infrastructure for eligible retail customers holding active securities accounts. The service features built-in tax handling to offset capital gains and losses at source against other portfolio investments. To incentivize adoption, Israel Discount Bank will waive account management fees for the first six months, while charging a 2% trading commission per transaction.
