EToro had sold nearly 6 million shares for its IPO at $52 each, much higher than its initially marketed range and raising about $310 million.

The stock and crypto trading platform became the first company to resume plans to go public after a number other crypto-related companies including stablecoin issuers Circle delayed their IPOs amid April's market uncertainty.
