The company said that it will soon be launching other cryptocurrencies too.
Regarding cryptocurrencies, Brokers offer them only in the form of CFDs. Unlike in an exchange where the asset is delivered to the wallet of the client, which the client can then put to use, a CFD is not delivered. It is a purely speculative instrument which is used to trade and profit.
