Yes, in eligible jurisdictions. Major coins (BTC, ETH, LTC, XRP, ADA, DOT and others) trade as CFDs against USD, EUR or other quote currencies on the Global entity.
Direct answer
Crypto CFDs at XM are price-only contracts — you don’t own the underlying coin. Available pairs depend on your registered country and the entity holding your account; EU retail traders face ESMA leverage caps (1:2) on crypto regardless of broker.
