I already own bitcoin in an IRA. Can I transfer it into an Unchained IRA?

How to convert your bitcoin IRA into an Unchained IRA through an in-kind transfer

Yes, as long as your current provider allows for it. If you already have a bitcoin IRA with another provider, you can execute an "in-kind transfer", allowing you to transfer the assets over as bitcoin. You will need to speak with your current custodian to see if they allow for in-kind transfers. If they are unwilling to send the bitcoin in-kind, you can request the bitcoin be sold and transferred via USD check or wire.
