eToro is the rapidly growing global $2.5bn unicorn that offers digital asset management services for more than 15 million users, who can trade on stocks, commodities, forex, and cryptocurrency markets.

Fueled by the recent surge in interest from institutional and retail investors in Bitcoin, which reached new price records since its last 2017 all-time high, the rapidly maturing cryptocurrency markets are expected to easily surpass the $1 trillion dollar global capitalization and continue to develop following a rapid adoption trajectory.

This has prompted eToro to capitalize on the emerging market opportunity and expand its cryptocurrency portfolio after a 12-month hiatus.

Elrond is a public blockchain that has delivered the first truly scalable sharding architecture solution, which is able to deliver more than 15,000 transactions per second and can scale even further, having achieved 263,000 transactions per second in public tests.

Compared to the 7 transactions per second of Bitcoin and 14 transactions per second of Ethereum, the top two cryptocurrencies at this time, Elrond is akin to what broadband internet was to the early days of slow internet connections.

Recently, Elrond also announced the launch of its digital wallet and global payments app dubbed Maiar, scheduled for Jan. 31.

Through Maiar, Elrond is positioned for an accelerated growth period, aiming to gain widespread mainstream adoption because in addition to crypto, the app aims to gradually provide the same features as PayPal, Venmo, and Google Pay but without collecting any personal information and at much lower fixed fees.

Beniamin Mincu, CEO & Founder of Elrond Network said: “In its 10 years of existence Bitcoin has proven that cryptocurrencies are secure and can serve an important purpose in the internet economy. Elrond opens up a new frontier offering internet-scale blockchain performance, and an intuitive application called Maiar, through which we aim to bring the next billion people to the blockchain space.”

Elrond’s eGold cryptocurrency will debut in the eToro ecosystem on Wednesday the 23rd of December, when it will become available on the eToroX cryptocurrency exchange.
