    Yes, transferring your rollover IRA to a digital asset exchange is possible. However, it's important to do your due diligence and research the specific requirements and limitations of the digital asset exchange you intend to use. Not all exchanges support IRA transfers, so you'll need to find one that does. Additionally, you'll need to ensure that your IRA custodian allows for self-directed investments, as investing in cryptocurrencies may fall under this category. It's always a good idea to consult with a financial advisor or tax professional to understand the potential tax implications and any penalties that may arise from transferring your IRA funds to a digital asset exchange.
