Is Fidelity Crypto safe?
Yes — Fidelity Crypto ranks among the safety-leading US exchanges on the evidence we assess.

The evidence
Why this verdict
Backed by a heavily-regulated institutional parent (Fidelity Digital Assets) with best-in-class custody and disclosure; crypto retail breadth is still expanding.
