The eToro trading community has been quick to embrace the clear opportunities in cryptocurrencies. Our users have reaped significant rewards from the sharp growth in prices over the last 12 months.

The rapid growth in the adoption and price of cryptocurrencies only marks the first few steps on the long-journey to establishing cryptocurrencies as a dominant force in forex trading. We expect cryptocurrency trading volumes to get much bigger over the coming years.
