eToro will be withdrawing Cardano and Tron for US customers



In a surprising turn of events, crypto broker eToro has announced that it will be removing Cardano's ADA token and TRON Foundation's TRX token for US customers from December 26, 2021.

The broker platform stated that regulatory concerns were behind their decision to remove the two major cryptocurrencies from the platform. After Christmas, US-based users will no longer be able to buy ADA or TRX tokens. The Staking for this cryptocurrency is also set for 31 December.

"The regulatory landscape for cryptocurrencies is evolving rapidly," said an eToro spokesman. "As a result, we will limit the possibility for US users to open new positions in ADA and TRX or to earn bonuses."

Cardano was launched in 2015 by Ethereum co-founder Charles Hoskinson. This year the price of the coin has risen sharply, but has had problems in the last few months. The ADA coin rose from $ 0.18 in early 2021 to an all-time high of $ 3.10 in September. Since then, however, the rate has dropped to $ 1.70. It is still the sixth largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.

US customers only affected by eToro

"We are particularly disappointed to take this step," said a representative of the platform. "EToro will continue to actively support the crypto ecosystem."

The news came as a surprise to the crypto community, especially after the Luxembourg crypto exchange BitStamp announced last week that it is now also supporting Cardano. Hoskinson downplayed the concerns.

"We weren't even struck off the list," tweeted the co-founder in response to a comment on the BitStamp listing. "ADA is still on eToro and non-US customers can trade freely."

eToro also announced that Sino-American entrepreneur Justin Sun's native token for TRON Foundation will also remove TRX from the list. The price of TRON has increased from $ 0.03 to $ 0.10 this year. It is currently the 30th largest cryptocurrency by market value.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...

Cardano: This is the vision that founder Charles Hoskinson has

  The Altcoin Cardano has tended to decline in recent weeks.  The Alonzo upgrade was supposed to bring improvements, but it soon turned out to be a disappointment.  Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson presented his vision for the cyber motto in a live Twitter video. • Cardano in the last few months under pressure • Charles Hoskinson explains his Cardano vision via Twitter • Security and privacy at the center The cryptocurrency  Cardano  has had a difficult few months.  While founder Charles Hoskinson's cyber motto has had a strong run in 2021, it has been steadily downhill in recent months.  Cardano is faced with some difficulties.  The so-called Alonzo upgrade went live in mid-September, for which crypto fans had high hopes, but which soon turned out to be a disappointment.  The upgrade should make it possible to use smart contracts on the cryptocurrency as well.  It soon turned out, however, that although these were entered into Cardano,...
