  Yes, the PDT rule does apply to cash accounts used for buying and selling digital currencies. The PDT rule is a regulation imposed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that limits the number of day trades that can be made in a margin account. However, it's important to note that the PDT rule only applies to margin accounts and not to cash accounts. So if you're trading digital currencies using a cash account, you won't be subject to the PDT rule.

  No, the PDT rule does not apply to cash accounts used for buying and selling digital currencies. The PDT rule was designed to regulate day trading activities in traditional securities markets, and it does not specifically address cryptocurrency trading. As long as you're using a cash account for your digital currency trades, you should not be affected by the PDT rule.
