Oanda executive Jessica Bestead said the decision to offer crypto trading services was “in response to the needs of active traders,” a sign that more market participants are looking to gain exposure to digital assets.
Founded in 1996, Oanda claims to be the first company to share exchange rate data for free on the internet. They also launched a forex trading platform that helped pioneer the development of web-based currency trading five years later.

As reported by Cointelegraph, major US trading platform Interactive Brokers entered the crypto market in mid-2021 to capitalize on the growing demand.
