eToro does not adhere to offering crypto CFDs
The introduction of new instruments adds to eToro’s rapidly expanding suite of cryptos. The Israeli social investment platform has had a string of recent announcements in a major push to attract crypto traders and grow its user base.
Unlike many other brokers, eToro does not simply adhere to offering crypto CFDs but also allows clients to purchase the assets, with eToro acting as custodian and holding the digital coins on behalf of clients.
We reported about eToro last week when it struck yet another sponsorship deal, this time with football centre operator Powerleague. eToro has been active in the Europe soccer market as they have previously signed deals with several top leagues. The broker already bags Premier League’s multi-club deals with Arsenal Football Club, Tottenham Hotspur, Crystal Palace, Leicester City and Southampton.
