Twitter partners with eToro for crypto trading

Through a partnership with social trading platform eToro, Twitter will provide access to stocks, cryptocurrencies and other financial assets for its users.

The feature will allow assets to be viewed on eToro, and users will be able to buy and sell crypto via the platform.
