You could lose all the money you invest<\/p>\n\n<ul> \n<li>The performance of most cryptoassets can be highly volatile, with their value dropping as quickly as it can rise. You should be prepared to lose all the money you invest in cryptoassets.<\/li>\n<li>The cryptoasset market is largely unregulated. There is a risk of losing money or any cryptoassets you purchase due to risks such as cyber-attacks, financial crime and firm failure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>2. You should not expect to be protected if something goes wrong<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) doesn't protect this type of investment because it's not a 'specified investment' under the UK regulatory regime \u2013 in other words, this type of investment isn't recognised as the sort of investment that the FSCS can protect. Learn more by using the FSCS <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fscs.org.uk\/check\/investmentprotection-checker\">investment protection checker<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>The Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) will not be able to consider complaints related to this firm or Protection from the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) does not cover poor investment performance. If you have a complaint against an FCA regulated firm, FOS may be able to consider it. Learn more about FOS protection <a href=\"https:\/\/www.financialombudsman.org.uk\/consumers\">here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>3. You may not be able to sell your investment when you want to<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>There is no guarantee that investments in cryptoassets can be easily sold at any given time. The ability to sell a cryptoasset depends on various factors, including the supply and demand in the market at that time.<\/li>\n<li>Operational failings such as technology outages, cyber-attacks and comingling of funds could cause unwanted delay and you may be unable to sell your cryptoassets at the time you want.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>4. Cryptoasset investments can be complex<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Investments in cryptoassets can be complex, making it difficult to understand the risks associated with the investment.<\/li>\n<li>You should do your own research before investing. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>5. Don't put all your eggs in one basket<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Putting all your money into a single type of investment is risky. Spreading your money across different investments makes you less dependent on any one to do well.<\/li>\n<li>A good rule of thumb is not to invest more than 10% of your money in high-risk investments.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>If you are interested in learning more about how to protect yourself, visit the FCA's website <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fca.org.uk\/investsmart\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>For further information about cryptoassets, visit the FCA's website <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fca.org.uk\/investsmart\/crypto-basics\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<script>\nfunction ukfcyshowmodal() {\nvar infomodal = document.getElementById(\"ukfcymodal\");\ninfomodal.classList.add('is-visible');\ninfomodal.setAttribute(\"aria-hidden\", \"false\");\ndocument.getElementById(\"ukfcymodalclosereal\").addEventListener('click',function()\n{\nvar infomodal = document.getElementById(\"ukfcymodal\");\ninfomodal.classList.remove('is-visible');\ninfomodal.setAttribute(\"aria-hidden\", \"true\");\n});\n};\n<\/script>Coinbase launched in 2012 and is one of the world\u2019s most used crypto exchanges.

the Pro version of the platform, which is free to access once you\u2019ve been verified. It\u2019s particularly tricky to work out the fees you\u2019ll pay with Coinbase before you sign up. As we noted above, because eToro operates in US dollars, you\u2019ll pay extra exchange fees if you\u2019re not a US customer.<h3>Winner: eToro<\/h3><p>Both Coinbase and eToro have created platforms that appeal to beginners and more experienced users. Both have found a good balance between advanced features and an intuitive UI. And Coinbase has promised more features are coming.<\/p><p>The exchange fees make eToro a less optimal choice for non-US users, but the platform is clearer upfront what its trading fees are. <\/p><p>It\u2019s worth knowing that in October 2021, the accounts of about 6,000 Coinbase customers were hacked and their funds stolen. Coinbase reimbursed users their stolen funds. <\/p><p>The main standout feature that edges eToro ahead \u2013 even though it offers fewer cryptocurrencies on the platform \u2013 is its Copy Trader social trading function. <\/p><article class=\"luna-card luna-card--alt\"><div class=\"luna-card__block has-padding-small\"><p class=\"has-margin-bottom-xsmall\">*Cryptocurrencies aren't regulated in the UK and there's no protection from the Financial Ombudsman or the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
