Veredicto del editor
Wealthfront's Cash Account is technically a brokerage sweep product, not a bank account — but the practical experience is identical, and the FDIC pass-through coverage ceiling is the highest on this list. If you have over $250k in cash, Wealthfront is the cleanest way to keep it fully insured in one place.
