Bitpanda will launch stock and ETF trading on Jan. 29, integrating over 10,000 equities and ETFs into its regulated app as it pivots from a crypto-native exchange to a full-stack, multi-asset investment platform.

Bitpanda, one of Europe’s largest retail-focused crypto platforms, is launching stock and ETF trading on January 29 within its existing regulated app, adding more than 10,000 securities (around 8,000 stocks and 2,500 ETFs) to its current offering of cryptocurrencies, indices and precious metals. The Vienna-based company, founded in 2014 and operating under EU‑wide and UK licenses, will let users trade both full and fractional shares with a flat €1 fee per stock/ETF trade, no custody fees, free deposits/withdrawals and no payment for order flow, positioning the product as a low-friction, multi-asset investment platform. The move marks a strategic pivot from a crypto‑native exchange to a full‑stack, multi‑asset investment app, aiming to combine what Bitpanda describes as Europe’s largest retail crypto offering with a broad range of traditional securities in a single regulated interface. Users will be able to manage crypto, stocks, ETFs and precious metals in one account, access savings plans for stocks and ETFs at zero additional cost, use advanced order types such as limit orders, and in Austria and Germany benefit from automatic tax withholding to simplify compliance. Bitpanda frames the expansion as lowering barriers for smaller investors—through fractionalization and simple pricing—and as part of a longer‑term strategy that includes preparation for a potential Frankfurt IPO in 2026, targeting a valuation in the €4–5 billion range. {"entities":["Bitpanda","Bitpanda GmbH","Bitpanda stocks and ETFs","The Block","European Economic Area (EEA)","United Kingdom financial regulators","Goldman Sachs","Citigroup","Deutsche Bank","Christoph Waltz","Frankfurt Stock Exchange"]} json { "brief": "Bitpanda, one of Europe’s largest retail-focused crypto platforms, is launching stock and ETF trading on January 29 within its existing regulated app, adding more than 10,000 securities (around 8,000 stocks and 2,500 ETFs) to its current offering of cryptocurrencies, indices and precious metals.
