What to know:

  • Shares of eToro jumped 14% after the company reported stronger-than-expected fourth quarter results.
  • The Israel-based trading platform grew full-year revenue 10% to $868 million, with weaker crypto revenue offset by gains in equities and commodities trading.
  • While eToro is seeing softer crypto activity in early 2026, with January crypto trades down 50% year-over-year, its diversified asset mix and focus on an increasingly onchain financial system are helping cushion the downturn.

Shares of eToro (ETOR) rose 14% on Tuesday after the company reported its strongest quarter of 2025, defying a broader downturn in crypto trading that has weighed on competitors like Robinhood (HOOD) and Coinbase (COIN).

The Israel-based stock and crypto trading platform posted fourth-quarter revenue of $227 million, up 6% from the third quarter, and a record net profit of $69 million. Full-year revenue for 2025 rose to $868 million, a 10% increase from $788 million the year prior, according to the company's earnings report.

That performance stands in sharp contrast to rival platforms. Both Robinhood and Coinbase posted weaker-than-expected fourth-quarter results, dragged down by a slump in trading activity as crypto prices fell and volatility cooled.

While eToro's revenue from crypto assets dropped to $3.59 billion in the fourth quarter, down from $5.8 billion in the same period the year before, the company made up the shortfall through increased revenue from equities and commodities.

Speaking on a call with analysts, CEO Yoni Assia said that some crypto-focused users had begun shifting their attention to commodities for the first time.

“I do think there's somewhat of a convergence or a shift from crypto, which now has lower volatility, to now basically gold, silver and other commodities that have higher volatility,” Assia said.

The platform now offers over 100 crypto assets to U.S. users, but Assia emphasized the company’s broader positioning in a shifting market. “We are uniquely positioned as both a natively crypto company and a global equities trading platform,” he said in a statement.

He added that eToro is preparing for a financial system that is moving increasingly on-chain, and said the company’s long history in crypto and tokenization puts it in a strong position to support that transition.

Despite the strong Q4 showing, signs of softening activity have continued into 2026. eToro reported that January trading volumes totaled 4 million trades, down 50% year-over-year for crypto. The average invested amount per trade also fell, down 34% to $182 from January 2025 levels.

Still, the company’s diversification across asset classes appears to have cushioned the blow as crypto’s downturn stretches into the new year.

Crypto custodian BitGo a potential acquisition target for Wall Street firms, analysts say

Compass Point and Canaccord call BitGo a potential acquisition target and defend the stock despite its weak debut, citing growth in institutional crypto infrastructure.

What to know:

  • Wall Street analysts say BitGo’s expansion into full-service institutional crypto finance could drive long-term growth and make it an attractive acquisition target for traditional financial firms.
  • Analysts argue that investors are overlooking BitGo’s potential to cross-sell prime brokerage-style services, which could significantly boost revenue if it can narrow the gap with rivals like Galaxy and Coinbase.
  • Despite BitGo’s stock falling more than 40% since its January IPO, some analysts view the selloff as an overreaction and maintain buy ratings, citing the company’s solid competitive moat and strategic value to big banks entering crypto.
