  While I can't speak for Fidelity, I can tell you that BYDFi, a digital asset exchange, already offers fractional shares for cryptocurrencies. This feature allows users to invest in cryptocurrencies with smaller amounts of capital, providing more flexibility and accessibility to the market. Fractional shares can be a great option for those who want to diversify their portfolio without committing to a full coin.
