EToro, the leading social investment platform with over nine million users, has today added support for NEO to its platform.
eToro Bullish on NEO
The new addition now brings the total number of cryptocurrencies supported to nine and follows the addition of Stellar ($XLM) last week.
NEO currently has a market cap of around $7.2 billion USD making it the seventh biggest cryptocurrency overall. NEO has seen a dramatic rise in price since its inception in 2014. It is specifically designed to help provide a platform for smart contracts and DApps. This could make NEO extremely beneficial to e-commerce businesses. This utility value gives NEO a strong potential for more growth in the future.
It is the native token of the NEO smart economy platform, which uses a unique blockchain algorithm to develop digital assets and smart contracts, will now trade alongside Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, XRP, Litecoin, Ethereum Classic, Dash and Stellar on the eToro platform.
“Already in 2018 we’ve seen attention shift away from mainstream cryptocurrencies and the market share of altcoins is increasing all the time,” commented Yoni Assia, Co-founder and CEO at eToro, on the news.
In our view, this trend is only set to continue.
Cryptocurrency investors on eToro own the real underlying asset, with eToro acting as custodian.
NEO will also be added to eToro’s Crypto CopyFund, which uses CFDs to enable investors to diversify across all available cryptocurrencies (weighted by market cap) with just one click. eToro users benefit from eToro’s verification procedures, security processes and established reputation within the crypto community.
Expect More Altcoins to Be Added This Year
The addition of NEO to eToro follows from that of Stellar last week, and comes as investors increasingly turn their attention to altcoins, as they seek new investment opportunities and diversification for their cryptocurency portfolios.
“We are constantly seeking to identify and assess new concepts as they emerge and we are committed to bringing the best crypto assets onto our platform for our users to invest in,” explained Assia.
We’re excited to have brought NEO and Stellar onto the platform already this year and we look forward to seeing how the market develops in 2018 following a very successful 2017 for the crypto community.
