  • whether ForUsAll is offering a Roth IRA
  • why nobody has offered crypto within a 401(k) before now
  • what differentiates a crypto 401(k) from a self-directed IRA
  • what are the fees for the 401(k), who it will be available to, and when it will launch
  • how security and keys are being handled
  • why ForUsAll is not offering every token available on Coinbase
  • how ForUsAll is determining which cryptos will be available to trade
