Indeed, without EUR account, European expansion will be a total failure but surely :freetrade: knows this already.

an update: FreeTrade co-founder left Revolut at the beginning of April
The guy left :freetrade: then sold his :freetrade: shares in Round 4 or Round 5 thus missed out on the 4X since then. He probably got āwelcomeā stock options from Revolut on signing, most probably otherwise he would not have left, and now he must have lost his stock options because you can count on Revolut to have implemented a tough clawback clauseā¦ What a bad move he made. I would not even be surprised if Revolut had enticed him to leave :freetrade: just to attempt to cripple :freetrade: without even having the intention of keeping him.

As against this as I was thinking no one would be bothered if they cant use euros, I also use revolut and need to convert to dollars and it really isnt a problem as long as they make it a quick and easy process I think it will be ok.
āThe next big milestone on the currency front will be EUR-denominated accounts for our European expansion.ā

This guy has already left Revolut too. I think that may explain that FT didnt lose out.

3 weeks to 200k then?
Based on projections, I believe FT will hit 200K between 1st and 7th of July!

Forgive the stupid question but does the number of people on the board (around 200k as you say) have any impact on the success of FT? Surely the number of users of the app is the key stat?
This is app users. Only about 7k on forum I think.

Nice. I must have missed that on the call. But certainly seems Freetradeās measurement is slightly different to the actual assigned user number that we have been seeing here, as we were at 179,XXX 3 days ago. Doubt we have only added 352 since then. Also when Adam indicated a number just before the last fundraise, it shows a dip in average user growth on the graph. I donāt think we are comparing apples with apples. Would be helpful to know the difference.

Yeah pretty sure thatās wrong. All the other numbers were consistent. Should be around 181k Iād have thought
Would be great to hear the clarification. Perhaps one explanation is a user number is unique but perhaps freetrade has a lower number because theyāre no longer counting closed accounts?

500k when?
Any numbers from new users to check our hypothesis that FTās calculation is a bit different to āAssigned User Numberā that we have been using? Thanks!
The numbers you have are pretty bang on. There are about 3k test users from when we first got the system running but the numbers are otherwise unchanged from what we track.
