Common questions
Who regulates eToro in the EU?
eToro has a current MiCA register entry with no separate legal-route classification in our curated entry in Cyprus, dated Jan 2025. CySEC supervises the entry. The registered entity is eToro (Europe) Ltd. The ESMA register is the source of truth for the current entity and service scope.
Can eToro serve customers across the whole EEA?
eToro is eligible to use MiCA's host-state notification route for the services in its home entry. We have not verified which host states or services were notified, so the home entry is not evidence of live coverage in every EEA country.
Does MiCA protect my funds on eToro?
MiCA applies conduct and disclosure rules to the registered EEA entity for the recorded service. Safeguarding duties depend on which service and entity hold client crypto-assets or funds. Article 75 covers custody liability for attributable loss and caps that liability. MiCA does not provide a deposit guarantee, and crypto-assets can lose value.
