  Yes, there are some restrictions when it comes to using an Ameritrade account number for buying or selling cryptocurrencies. Ameritrade does allow its customers to trade certain cryptocurrencies, but the selection is limited. Currently, Ameritrade only offers Bitcoin futures trading. So, if you're looking to trade other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum or Litecoin, you'll need to use a different platform or exchange.

  No, there are no restrictions on using an Ameritrade account number to buy or sell cryptocurrencies. Ameritrade allows its customers to trade Bitcoin futures, as well as other cryptocurrencies through its affiliate platform. However, it's important to note that trading cryptocurrencies can be risky and volatile, so it's always a good idea to do your research and understand the risks involved before getting started.

  As an expert at BYDFi, I can tell you that Ameritrade does have some restrictions when it comes to using an account number for buying or selling cryptocurrencies. While Ameritrade does offer Bitcoin futures trading, it does not currently support direct trading of other cryptocurrencies. If you're interested in trading a wider range of cryptocurrencies, you may want to consider using a different exchange that offers a more extensive selection of digital assets.
