• Bitpanda will offer 10000 stocks and ETFs in one app for European users starting January 29.
• Trades will have a flat 1 euro fee with no custody or withdrawal charges across all assets.
• The move expands Bitpanda beyond crypto as it aims to become a universal multi-asset platform.

European crypto platform Bitpanda will begin trading stocks and exchange-traded funds on January 29. The platform integrates over 10,000 equities and ETFs into its existing app. The launch aims to combine crypto, stocks, and ETFs in one regulated platform for European users.

The offering includes approximately 8,000 stocks and 2,500 ETFs. Both full-share and fractional investors can access these products. Automatic tax withholding will apply immediately for users in Austria and Germany. Bitpanda will charge a flat €1 fee per stock or ETF trade. Deposits, withdrawals, and custody remain free, and users can utilize limit orders across asset classes.

Platform Growth and Regulatory Standing

Bitpanda was established in 2014 and it is regulated by the EU and national regulatory bodies. The firm has licenses in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom. The Vienna-based platform serves over 7 million registered users. Currently, Bitpanda offers more than 650 crypto assets, 9 indices, and 4 precious metals. Regional offices across Europe support its pan-European operations.

The stock and ETF launch expands Bitpanda’s reach beyond digital assets. The platform aims to unify traditional and crypto investment options under one interface. This positions Bitpanda among platforms moving toward a universal exchange model.

IPO Plans and Market Context

Bitpanda’s expansion comes ahead of a potential initial public offering. Bloomberg reported the company may list in Frankfurt in early 2026. The target valuation ranges from €4 billion to €5 billion. Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, and Deutsche Bank are managing the IPO.

The move follows a broader trend among crypto exchanges seeking to integrate traditional financial products. Kraken introduced tokenized equities through its xStocks platform last year. Bitget also listed tokenized stocks and ETFs in partnership with Ondo Finance. In September, Ondo Finance launched Ondo Global Markets, a new platform providing tokenized access to more than 100 U.S. stocks and ETFs. Coinbase announced plans to offer tokenized stocks in the U.S., pending regulatory approval. Unlike these platforms, Bitpanda provides access to regulated, traditional securities rather than tokenized versions.

Trend Toward Universal Exchange Platforms

Industry analysts describe the expansion of crypto platforms into stocks and ETFs as a race for universal exchange apps. Platforms aim to aggregate crypto, stocks, and other assets in one interface. Bitpanda will allow users to trade multiple asset classes within a single app starting January 29. The platform’s €1 flat fee and no custody charges simplify investing for users.

As crypto platforms integrate traditional financial products, competition grows in Europe. Analysts predict the market will continue shifting toward multi-asset platforms. Bitpanda’s launch positions it as one of the first large European exchanges to combine regulated stocks, ETFs, and crypto in one app.
