Buy Bitcoin with Confidence

With eToro, you have access to:

• Multiple successful Bitcoin traders you can learn from
• Live discussions on our Bitcoin trading page regarding market trends
• A $100K virtual portfolio to practice trading
• Email updates on the markets
• Blog posts, live hangouts and video tutorials on how to trade

The eToro platform has millions of users, with varying levels of experience in the market. Trading discussions and portfolio allocations are open to other users, as is the ability to automatically copy successful traders. Because many first-time traders are not yet familiar with the markets, eToro also provides new users with $100K of virtual funds to practice with until they are ready to start investing.

• Bitcoin (BTC): The largest cryptocurrency by market cap, considered to be the first wide-scale implementation of blockchain technology.
• XRP by Ripple Labs (XRP): This popular cryptocurrency enables real-time payments with greater transaction speeds and lower costs, and is already in use by many well-known brands.
• Ethereum (ETHEREUM): This leading cryptocurrency has received international recognition from technology giants such as Microsoft and Intel. In addition to payments, Ethereum also supports “smart contracts”.
• Bitcoin Cash (BCH): A ‘hard fork’ designed to be a solution to the transaction backlog Bitcoin was experiencing, Bitcoin Cash’s block size is eight times that of Bitcoin.
• Ethereum Classic (ETC): Although Ethereum Classic has a significantly lower market cap than its namesake, it is still a popular cryptocurrency.
• Litecoin (LTC): The first cryptocurrency to implement SegWit, a method of speeding up transaction times without compromising the underlying blockchain technology.
• Dash (DASH): Based on Bitcoin’s technology, Dash’s additional infrastructure enables faster transactions and higher liquidity, though unlike other cryptocurrencies, Dash is a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO).
• Stellar Lumens (XLM): Operating on a unique consensus algorithm rather than mining, Stellar can facilitate transactions between multiple currencies, whether fiat or digital.
• NEO (NEO): Also known as the ‘Chinese Ethereum,’ NEO was designed to be easily modified and to have no forking ability.
• EOS (EOS): Upon its release, EOS quickly became one of the top ten cryptos, with a powerful open-source infrastructure capable of supporting thousands of commercial-scale decentralized applications (DApps).
• Cardano (ADA): Inspired by Ethereum, Cardano differentiated itself with a dual-layer structure running each layer separately, as opposed to Ethereum, where both layers are intertwined.
• IOTA (MIOTA): Based on a proprietary ‘blockless’ blockchain called Tangle, IOTA  is paving the way for a decentralized network to power the Internet of Things (IoT).
• Zcash (ZEC): Zcash encrypts the contents of shielded transactions, ensuring that the sender, recipient, and amount transferred are all kept private.
• TRON (TRX): Tron aims to create a decentralized alternative for digital content distribution via one of the largest blockchain-based operating systems in the world.

On the eToro trading platform, trades are made by dollar amount, rather than by unit of an asset. That means that you don’t need to buy whole units of an asset; you can buy just a fraction of a cryptocurrency, starting from a minimum of $25 per trade.

Please note that there is a $50 minimum for depositing funds.

We currently accept deposits through online banking or wire transfer only. These payment methods are the best options for secure deposits and withdrawals, protecting our clients and ensuring that all funds are properly accounted for.

Yes. When you buy cryptocurrency on the eToro trading platform, we use an automated system based on consolidated cryptocurrency accounts to purchase the actual asset. This automated method simply helps us provide lightning-fast transaction times, increased security, and a very straightforward user experience.

No. However, eToro offers an integrated multisig wallet as an easy and convenient way to use your crypto externally. Once a cryptocurrency has been transferred to the eToro Wallet, it may be used to send external payments. For more information about the eToro Wallet, click here.

Please note that cryptocurrency transferred from your eToro portfolio to the Wallet cannot be transferred back again into your portfolio.

No. eToro makes cryptocurrency trading simple. There is no need to memorize complicated addresses and passwords for multiple digital wallets — all you need is your eToro login and you’re ready to trade.

If, however, you would like to access your cryptocurrency directly, the eToro Wallet is the perfect solution. It is seamlessly integrated to receive transfers from your eToro portfolio in order to use your crypto for external payments. For more information about the eToro Wallet, click here.

Please note that cryptocurrency transferred from your eToro portfolio to the Wallet cannot be transferred back again into your portfolio.
