I'll have to buy some more bitcoins to do my holiday shopping now.''

What an incredible initiative and one we should all support.'' Highlighting the ongoing shift towards newer technologies, eToro CEO Yoni Assia underlines: ''The use of blockchain and crypto is and will become a way of life. The technology of money is changing, and a lot of people don't understand how big this transformation is because it's happening over centuries.''
