Supported Currencies
eToroX offers 17digital assets: 5 cryptocurrencies and 10 Tokenized Assets. eToroX is in the midst of creating numerous variations of tokenized and digital assets. Seems like eToroX added the most popular cryptocurrencies to the current listings on its platform. The same strategy has also been used by other exchanges, in their early stages. eToroX’s current range of trading pairs and tokenized assets is surprisingly sizable, considering it was only released recently.

Liquidity
Users pay close attention to the trading liquidity of an exchange – or, in other words, buyers and sellers trading en masse in a particular exchange equates to higher trading liquidity, which helps enable fair prices and allows traders to get in and out of trades faster. Analyzing the order book of the most popular trading pairs on the exchange is a very good way to check liquidity. Here we examine eToroX’s most popular trading pair, BTC/USD, to evaluate its liquidity:
eToroX has good liquidity. This is largely due to the company working with market makers connected to some of the top 15 exchanges, in which aggregated liquidity is placed directly on the platform.
Advantages
- Established Track Record & Market Expertise: eToro is a global multi-asset investment platform with over 10 million registered users. They possess considerable experience in the traditional finance industry, given that eToro was formed in 2006.
- Regulated Exchange: Being only one of the few regulated entities under the Gibraltar regulatory authority (GRA) with a distributed ledger technology (DLT) licence from the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission (GFSC) is a major sign of credibility for users. Regulation entails governance and accountability, which is lacking in the cryptocurrency space. As a regulated entity, eToroX is required to invest a significant amount of resources and effort to ensure the right technical and control measures are in place for the protection of all stakeholders, especially users. Being granted the green light by regulators is a major sign of credibility and trust.
Disadvantages
- Low Liquidity: The average liquidity of eToroX exchange is thin and is unable to support the market depth of most other cryptocurrency exchange. This is natural given the infancy of the exchange.
