Etoro preventing transfer of btc trades to wallet

Rob123

Just been informed by Etoro that I can't transfer some small investments in BTC to a wallet. Apparently they're below a minimum value to transfer. Neither can I combine my holdings to take me above that minimum. I believe this may be buried in the small print somewhere but I'm feeling cheated. Has anyone else encountered this and is there a solution?

Rob123 Haven't experienced this so far. How much exactly are you trying to transfer? The minimum that you can send from the eToro trading platform to the wallet is 0.007195 BTC so that's a substantial amount.

panda4 Thanks for your reply. I have a number trades that are about half that minimum. I've been told I can't combine them to take me over the minimum for transfer. All in all it's a poor show. I doubt many new registrants to Etoro are clear about this condition.

Rob123 Yes, the condition for the minimum transfer from the trading platform to the wallet applies to a single position only and doesn't cover multiple BTC positions (sorry). Your only option in this case is to close the positions and just withdraw them as fiat money instead.

Thanks for your reply. I'll do that but I won't be using Etoro in future. It's a con.
