Etoro stated that it is taking these measures due to “business-related considerations in the ever-changing regulatory environment”.The company may try to protect itself from the regulatory uncertainty that the cryptocurrency industry faces in the U.S.

Hoskinson answer

Unexpected measures taken by Etoro prompted reply From Charles Hoskinson, The founder of Cardano. Hoskinson talked about the general regulatory uncertainty faced by cryptocurrencies in the world, especially in the United States. On this issue, Hoskinson said:

This seems to be an adjustment to the risk control and policy of certain European entities, where the liquidity of American participants has decreased.

At the same time, Bitstamp, another European cryptocurrency exchange, announced that it would join Cardano on its platform. This will support Hoskinson’s above assessment, which shows that the contraction of Etoro is only a specific action of a single platform, rather than a symbol of overall rejection. Hoskinson also clarified that Etoro’s actions will not affect the liquidity of currencies in the market because it is a relatively small platform for tokens.

Hoskinson also called for clear regulation, pointing out that this would be the only way to solve all these problems. On the other hand, Tron founder Justin Sun (Justin Sun) did not make any statement on this matter.
