Summarize this article with:

The contraction of the crypto market no longer only affects investors. It now threatens the financial structure of the main trading platforms. eToro provided concrete evidence by publishing its quarterly results on August 11, 2026. Indeed, the decline in crypto trading volume contrasts with the increased interest in stocks and other more conventional investments. This transition forces the major FinTech company to quickly strengthen its diversification while revealing the new emerging power dynamics in the online brokerage field.

In brief

In the second quarter of 2026, eToro records a 30% drop in its crypto revenues, driven by a collapse in retail transactions and a marked decline in average invested amounts.
To counter this slowdown, the platform relies on a strong rotation of its users towards stocks and commodities, while accelerating its strategic acquisitions with TradeZero and Zengo.
Although this diversification preserves the group’s overall profitability with a net profit up 77%, the market penalized eToro’s stock on Wall Street in reaction to the slump of its historic digital unit.
This sequence confirms the end of pure dependence on crypto brokerage fees and requires brokers to adopt a sustainable multi-asset model to cope with cycle volatility.
