In March eToro announced the acquisition of smart contract startup Firmo to accelerate the growth of its tokenized assets.
The Copenhagen-based startup uses underlying technology designed to allow eToro to securely deploy financial contracts while supporting a number of blockchain platforms, including Ethereum, EOS and NEO.
Says eToro CEO and founder Yoni Assia,
“We believe that we will see the greatest transfer of wealth ever as financial services move onto the blockchain. The blockchain brings transparency and a new paradigm for asset ownership. In time, we will see the tokenization of all traditional asset classes, as well as the emergence of new asset classes such as tokenized art, property or even IP. Cryptoassets are just the first step on this journey and we are excited to explore the opportunities offered by tokenization with the launch of our exchange.”
The newly launched exchange is managed by eToro’s tokenized assets subsidiary eToroX, one of the first companies to be certified as a regulated distributed ledger technology provider by the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission.
The social trading platform currently has 10 million registered users who share investment strategies, allowing other users to follow the approaches of successful traders and investors.
