How do I sell Bitcoin in my IRA?
- Log into your Swan account at swan.com
- Navigate to your IRA account
- Click the Buy/Sell toggle and switch to Sell
- Enter the amount of Bitcoin you'd like to sell
- Review the details and confirm
Your USD proceeds will remain in your IRA account and can be used to buy more Bitcoin later or held as cash.
Are there any fees for selling?
What happens to the proceeds when I sell?
Note: Withdrawing funds from your IRA (taking a distribution) is a separate process with potential tax implications. Contact your Swan representative if you need help with distributions.
Can I sell any amount?
You can sell any amount up to your available Bitcoin balance. There is no minimum sell amount.
How long does a sell take to complete?
Sells typically complete within a few minutes. The USD proceeds will appear in your IRA cash balance shortly after the transaction settles.
What if I need to take a distribution?
Distributions (withdrawing money from your IRA) require additional steps due to IRS requirements and potential tax implications.
Self-service distributions are coming soon. In the meantime, please contact your Swan representative or email support@swanbitcoin.com.
I'm having trouble selling. What should I do?
