We've seen social trading in forex for quite some time. Now its time for other assets to start following forex. First in line has is Angel List, which is bringing social style investing to funding new startups.
One of the more exciting developments in the startup and early stage investing scene is the launch of a syndicate funding program from Angel List. Founded in 2010 by Naval Ravikant, and Babak Navi, Angel List is a platform for connecting investors and startups. Open to the general public, Angel List allows startups to post information about their firms and achievements, as well as use the site to connect with approved accredited investors using the site. Notable startups to raise money through Angel List include, Uber, Leap Motion, as well as Angel List itself, that used its own platform when raising part of its recent $24 million in funding. Overall, according to the latest figures from the firm, over 1300 startups have used Angel List for funding.
For investors, Angel List provides not only the ability to reach startups from across the globe, but also social network benefits. The site allows users to view who has previously invested in a given startup, as well as its mentors. Using that information angel investors can connect with other investors to share thoughts about specific startups and industries. In addition, equity investors are seeing value in viewing funding information to learn which existing public companies may see a lot of competition in the near future.
The program is based on established angel investors creating a funding syndicate, where they provide part of a startup funding, with the remainder provided by syndicate backers. Providing an explanation, Angel List provides this example, “Sara decides to invest in a startup and asks for a $250k allocation in the company. She personally takes $50K of the allocation and decides to syndicate the rest. She shares the deal with investors and specifies that she is charging a 20% carry on of the remaining $200K of her allocation. Sara's capital and her co-investor's capital is pooled into a $250K fund which is invested in the startup.”
For their effort of organizing the syndicate, choosing startups and accepting backers, syndicate leaders are compensated by receiving a greater share of the equity. Currently, Angel List investors are individually selected by Angel List before they can become syndicate leaders.
Not Much Different than eToro and Others
Comparing Angel List syndicates to social trading from eToro and others, there is much in common. Both use a system of leaders and followers, as well as providing compensation to leaders. Also, risk-wise, both Forex trading and angel investing fall in the category of ‘not for the faint of heart’, and are high-risk proposals. In addition, at the heart of each system is the utilization of a crowd sourced social approach for classical investing.
In terms of where the products are different, beyond simply being two different asset classes, they deviate on the duration. While social copy trading is focused on short term trades, the Angel List syndicates are multi-year investments. Also, syndicate leaders have more control, as they approve which investors can become backers, as well as the total amounts available for the deal.
Providing thoughts about the syndicate program on Angel List and resemblance to social trading, Yoni Assia, CEO of eToro, explained to Forex Magnates that they are seeing an emergence of social within multiple areas of finance which are transforming the entire industry. This includes social investing but also expands to P2P lending, crowd funding, crowd investing, and crowd-based currencies.
In regards to the importance of the syndicate program, Assia added that, “The Angel List syndicate, and other crowd investing platforms provide a unique opportunity for both investors interested in startups, and more importantly for founders around the world to find funding opportunities more easily. I believe that social finance in all its forms including crowd investing will keep growing exponentially in the next coming years.”
When asked about the lack of equity social trading products, Dinesh Bhatia, CEO and Founder of TradeHero, stressed that what non-trading social equity products provide is the ability to gamify the education process of trading. In regards to TradeHero, Bhatia stated to Forex Magnates that “TradeHero is very much focused on building the best possible financial literacy and experimentation tool for current and aspiring traders, and was created with traders’ demands as the key driver for the roll out of features within the app.” As an example, he mentioned a partnership the company has with the Macquarie Group in Singapore, where the mobile app is used to educate Macquarie’s clients about new trading products. However, when asked about integrating real trading within their apps, Bhatia again focused on education and knowledge rather than on social stock trading.
One possible reason for the slow adoption is the trading condition difference between stocks and Forex. While Forex trades in minimum 1000 unit sizes, share prices are different for each stock. As a result, when allocating funds to copy traders, it is more likely to lead to odd lot orders. In addition, without the leverage available in Forex, equity trades are more likely to trigger rejections due to unavailable funds. For example, for accounts of a $1000, buying much more than one share of Google at a recent $850 will hinder much more future activity from taking place.
In this regard, Assia told us that in terms of trading of real shares that, “While we did consider this in the past, we believe that our CFD offering is a superior product to stocks.” He pointed to the advantage of being able to offer fractional shares, low minimum trade sizes, and no stamp duties as reasons why equities are better served to investors via CFDs than as real stocks. The main drawback though, is the inability to offer such a product in the equity centered US.
Following Angel List
Despite the existence of impediments, it doesn’t mean social trading isn’t headed to equities. Similar to Angel List, social stock trading could flourish if it focuses on the long term. In addition, due to the existence of sites like StockTwits and apps like TradeHero gaining users, it is raising the likelihood that social stock trading will become requested features from traders to their brokers. While not wanting to comment on any technological road-map to bring live social stock trading, Bhatia did infer that there was interest from brokers for such a product and stated, “TradeHero is also in discussions with various international financial institutions keen to leverage the app’s wide reach and platform.”
As such, it seems like it’s only a matter of time that Forex becomes the leader and stocks the copier, in the social trading world.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.

In this conversation, we speak with Aydin Bonabi, CEO and co-founder of Surveill, a firm focused on fraud detection and AI-driven compliance tools for financial institutions.
We start with Aydin’s view of the Summit and the challenges brokers face as fraud tactics grow more complex. He explains how firms can stay ahead through real-time signals, data patterns, and early-stage detection.
We also talk about AI training and why compliance teams often struggle to keep models accurate, fair, and aligned with regulatory expectations. Aydin breaks down what “good” AI training looks like inside a financial environment, including the importance of clean data, domain expertise, and human oversight.
He closes with a clear message: fraud is scaling, and so must the tools that stop it.

Interview with Jas Shah
Builder | Adviser | Fintech Writer | Product Strategist
In this episode, Jonathan Fine sat down with Jas Shah, one of the most thoughtful voices in global fintech. Known for his work across advisory, product, stablecoins, and his widely read writing, Jas brings a rare combination of industry insight and plain-spoken clarity.
We talk about his first impression of the Summit, the projects that keep him busy today, and how they connect to the stablecoin panel he joined. Jas shares his view on the link between fintech, wealthtech and retail brokers, especially as firms like Revolut, eToro and Trading212 blur long-standing lines in the market.
We also explore what stablecoin adoption might look like for retail investment platforms, including a few product and UX angles that are not obvious at first glance.
To close, Jas explains how he thinks about writing, and how he approaches “shipping” pieces that spark debate across the industry.
