We’re pleased to share that eToro Europe Ltd. (eToro EU) is now authorized to offer cryptoasset services in Germany under MiCA.

We’ve updated our Terms & Conditions (the “Revised Terms”), available here. These apply to all residents of Germany, whether or not you currently hold cryptoassets on eToro.

What you need to know:

1. Trading services are moving to eToro EU

Starting on or around October 30, 2025, all cryptoasset trading services will be provided directly by eToro EU. This means:

You will no longer have access to the services of DLT Finance through the eToro platform. Your trades will continue seamlessly through the eToro platform. You must accept the Revised Terms in order to continue trading. These will also appear as a pop-up when you next log in.

We would like to take this moment to thank DLT Finance for their successful partnership. We look forward to collaborating with them in the areas of crypto liquidity and infrastructure in the future. 

2. No changes to the Custody of your assets at this stage

There will be no change to the custody of your cryptoassets      and your current positions remain unaffected.

3. Future custody by eToro EU

By accepting the Revised Terms, you agree that eToro EU may provide custody services in the future. If and when this change occurs, it will:

Be communicated to you in advance. Enable broader access to cryptoassets not currently available to German clients.

4. eToro is fully MiCA-compliant

Although eToro EU is authorised under MiCA to offer crypto services, it is not classified as a “MiCA trading platform – a venue where buyers and sellers trade directly, like a stock exchange. Instead, eToro is your counterpart and securely executes your trades. This means:

Your trades may be executed outside of regulated MiCA trading venues. We ensure that your trading journey is aligned with applicable MiCA requirements.

5. If you do not accept the Revised Terms

When you next access the platform, a pop-up will prompt you to accept the Revised Terms.

If you do not accept these Revised Terms, you will no longer be able to trade cryptoassets via eToro after October 5, 2025. However, your current cryptoassets will remain safely held in custody with Tangany GmbH, and may be withdrawn to another custodian if desired by contacting them, subject to their terms.

6. Summary of changes to the Terms & Conditions: What’s changing and what’s not

Cryptoassets Trading provider: eToro EU will assume all cryptoasset trading obligations Cryptoassets Custody: Remains unchanged. Existing positions: Remain unchanged Regulation: Previously under local arrangement via DLT → Now MiCA-regulated via eToro EU Future Custody by eToro:  In the future, eToro EU may also provide cryptoasset custody. You will be notified in advance of that. If eToro EU will become the sole cryptoasset custody provider, we will amend the Terms & Conditions accordingly. You will be notified in advance, and unless you object, your consent will be deemed given.

We encourage you to better understand the risks involved in cryptoasset trading by reading our Risk Disclosure.

This change reflects our ongoing commitment to aligning with the most robust regulatory standards while ensuring a seamless user experience. MiCA sets a high bar for transparency, security, and operational standards in the crypto industry, and we’re proud to take part.
