The Future of Crypto Investing will Shock Everyone! | eToro's Andrew McCormick

eToro’s US head Andrew McCormick explains how social investing, AI agents, and tokenization are expanding crypto access while urging clear regulation and investor education.

Key Takeaways

  • eToro’s multi-asset social platform supports stocks, ETFs and 100+ cryptos, enables idea-sharing and copy trading, and shows verified risk scores and ownership transparency.
  • Start kids investing early with $5–$10 weekly or automatic deposits (Upma); use ETFs or branded stocks, let children choose holdings, and teach long-term holding and basics.
  • eToro uses AI for product development and compliance and plans external chatbots and 24/7 AI avatars to summarize portfolios, automate small buys, and research markets.
  • Tokenization and on‑chain securities could enable 24/7 peer-to-peer transfers, broader market access, and lower frictions — though currently a tiny portion of global markets.
  • Investing advice: zoom out, dollar-cost average, buy dips when prudent; time in market beats timing the market; avoid panic selling from emotional trades.
  • Mainstream adoption is growing — TradFi filings, ETFs, and custody validate crypto — but durable legislation and regulatory clarity remain essential for stability and innovation.
  • eToro won’t launch its own stablecoin but accepts stablecoin deposits; the platform enforces AML/KYC, publishes user performance, and discourages anonymous buy calls.
