etoro.com, just on steroids. Millions of millions of steroids
I tried to use etoro during those days, the platform is the worse of all i'm not sure if a trader can actually take its interface, they only have gui browser unlike other brokers that allows traders to use mt4. Not sure if there are indeed 10k-60k users on it.
What is certain though is that investors from stock and forex market will have the chance on crypto through ICONOMI.
If you read those two links, it says etoro had 200000 active users at beginning of 2014, 10k of which were actively trading bitcoin on the site
The second link says users trading bitcoin spiked by 6x at the end of 2015, which means an estimated ~60k users on this one website actively trading bitcoin
The fact that etoro has raised ~$60 million in private funding rounds, and has an alexa rank higher than bitcointalk leads me to believe that those user numbers are real.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EToroIf etoro really is terrible, then there is plenty of room for Iconomi to be better and gain thousands of users who want easy access to the crypto gains.
Again, here are the only cryptos which currently have thousands of people using it for more than speculation:
- Bitcoin
- Ethereum
arguably Steem achieved 1000+ users doing more than speculating for a brief time. Maybe Monero too if you think 1000+ users were using it in place of a mixer at some point, which is doubtful
Good chance ICN will rise up to be the #3 market cap crypto once the platform starts building a userbase
