eToro's signature social features carry its most distinctive regulatory exposure — U.S. CopyTrader is limited pending FINRA approval.
Copy-trading's regulatory treatment is inconsistent across jurisdictions; U.S. rollout hinges on FINRA.
Our social features, specifically CopyTrader and Smart Portfolios, which allow users to follow and replicate the trading activities of other users or portfolios, respectively, may expose us to certain operational, regulatory and reputational risks. […] In the U.S., CopyTrader is currently only available on a limited basis and we may be required to suspend our offering of CopyTrader if FINRA does not approve a Continuing Membership Application we have filed in connection with the continued launch and operation of the CopyTrader service.

Item 3. Key Information — Risks Related to Cryptoassets and Cryptoasset Markets — p. 44 · Read the full section →
Crypto was 17%–38% of trading commission; results ride bitcoin's price and volume, and a 'security' ruling could force delistings.
eToro's own risk-based test — not a legal standard — decides which cryptoassets it treats as non-securities.
We currently facilitate customer trades for certain cryptoassets that we have analyzed under applicable internal policies and procedures and, for cryptoassets supported on our platform, that we believe are not “securities” under the applicable laws in a relevant jurisdiction. Although we maintain a strict policy and we perform ongoing monitoring and legal review, our policies and procedures do not constitute a legal standard, but rather represent our company-developed risk-based assessment regarding the likelihood that a particular cryptoasse could be deemed a “security” under applicable laws. In the event that we determine that a supported cryptoasset could be deemed a security or that the continued support of a cryptoasset presents a risk to us or our users, we aim to take prompt action to discontinue the trading and custody of the cryptoasset. Users that traded a supported cryptoasset on our platform and suffered trading losses could also seek to rescind a trade on our platform on the basis that eToro effected their transactions in violation of applicable law, which could subject us to significant liability.

The income statement's puzzle: $13.0bn crypto revenue against $12.9bn crypto cost, leaving $868m Net Contribution and $216m net income.
Crypto revenue is booked gross on the sale of cryptoassets to users and counterparties.
When a user trades a cryptoasset as the underlying asset we purchase or sell the underlying asset. When users trade cryptoasset derivatives, we economically hedge our exposure by purchasing or selling the underlying asset. Trading cryptoassets as the underlying asset represents nearly all of our users cryptoasset trading activity. […] We generate Revenue from cryptoassets, which substantially includes revenue generated from the sale of cryptoassets to users and counterparties, and to a lesser extent, revenue generated from staking rewards and blockchain rewards.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm — Critical Audit Matter: Cryptoassets — p. 201 · Read the full section →
Defines the custodial model: $4.3bn of users' cryptoassets held off balance sheet, secured by private keys whose loss is the audit risk.
$4,304m of users' cryptoassets held in custody off balance sheet; private-key loss is the critical audit matter.
As more fully described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, as of December 31, 2025, the Company had $62.6 million of cryptoassets presented as current assets, and as described in notes 13 and 18, $4,304 million cryptoassets held on behalf of its users in custody presented off-balance sheet. Cryptoassets are generally accessible only by the possessor of the unique private key relating to the digital wallet in which the cryptoassets are held. Accordingly, private keys must be safeguarded and secured in order to prevent an unauthorized party from accessing them within a digital wallet. The Company holds cryptoassets for its own use, and on behalf of users, in digital wallets and controls the private keys associated with them. The loss, theft, or otherwise compromise of access to the private keys required to access the cryptoassets could adversely affect the Company’s ability to access the cryptoassets within its environment. This could result in loss of cryptoassets.
