  Unfortunately, Chime overdraft cannot be used to directly buy cryptocurrencies. Chime's overdraft protection is designed to cover transactions made with your Chime debit card, such as purchases at physical stores or online retailers. It does not extend to cryptocurrency exchanges. If you want to buy cryptocurrencies, you will need to use other funding sources, such as a linked bank account or a credit card.

  No, Chime overdraft cannot be used for purchasing cryptocurrencies. Chime's overdraft protection is specifically for covering transactions made with your Chime debit card, and it does not include digital currency exchanges. If you're looking to buy cryptocurrencies, you'll need to explore alternative payment methods, such as bank transfers or credit/debit card purchases.

  As an expert at BYDFi, I can confirm that Chime overdraft cannot be used to buy cryptocurrencies. Chime's overdraft protection is limited to transactions made with your Chime debit card, and it does not extend to digital currency purchases. If you're interested in buying cryptocurrencies, you may consider using other payment methods like bank transfers or credit card payments.
