eToro’s customer assets hit $20.1 billion in May 2026, climbing 18 percent year-over-year as surging stock and commodities trading compensated for continued weakness in cryptocurrency activity. Capital markets trades jumped 59 percent to 64 million, while crypto transactions tumbled 31 percent to 2.2 million, extending a months-long pivot away from digital assets. The volume surge carries a significant caveat: average trade size plunged 36 percent for capital markets to $201 and dropped 28 percent for crypto to $203, driven by increased copy trading and automated strategies that fragment positions into smaller orders.
The Nasdaq-listed broker reported 4.23 million funded accounts, but 110,000 came from recent acquisitions of Israeli crypto firms Zengo and Bit2C, meaning purchased users account for roughly one-fifth of annual account growth. Organic expansion remains more modest than headline figures suggest.
FXnCO Insight
Traders should monitor whether falling transaction sizes signal genuine volume growth or merely fragmented positioning that could reverse quickly under stress.
