    To open a brokerage account and trade cryptocurrencies, the age restrictions vary depending on the country and the specific brokerage platform. In most countries, the minimum age requirement is 18 years old. However, some countries may have higher age restrictions, such as 21 years old. It's important to check the regulations and requirements of your country and the brokerage platform you wish to use.

    If you're under the legal age to open a brokerage account, you may consider opening a custodial account. A custodial account allows a parent or guardian to manage and control the account on behalf of a minor. This way, you can still invest in cryptocurrencies under the supervision of an adult.
