With the introduction of zero-commission stock trading apps, a whole new class of investor joined the stock market. While some apps have shied away from adding tools to inform and help, eToro built its app from the ground up to be beneficial to inexperienced investors.
It did this through its social investment platform, which allows anyone on the app to follow and copy the best performing investors on the network. Through this, inexperienced traders can learn what to watch for and how to manage stocks.
eToro was built by two brothers, Yoni and Ronen Assia, in 2007. The app truly came online in 2010 with the introduction of the social network, and the company added hundreds of stocks from the UK, Germany and US.
In 2014, eToro added bitcoin trading to its investment instruments. It followed up in 2017 with a new trading platform, based on Blockchain technology. It wasn’t until 2019 that eToro reduced all its commissions to zero, following from the success of Robinhood.
eToro, like a lot of fintech businesses, has seen its usage and valuations rise sharply in the past two years. It has added seven million active users since the pandemic started, while its valuation also increased tenfold.
Even though eToro still has a majority of its users in Europe, it is attempting to expand into the US through its zero-commission stock trading and cryptocurrency exchange. It plans to IPO on the NASDAQ through a SPAC later this year.
