Mentioned:

Robinhood has been getting extremely focused on crypto. And it’s starting to pay off.

What’s happening:

  • Robinhood (NASDAQ: HOOD) has seen a massive surge in revenue from crypto trading in their most recent quarter of operations

By the numbers:

  • Robinhood’s crypto trading revenue soared by more than 700% year over year in their most recent quarter, bringing in a total of $358M USD
  • Crypto trading volume on Robinhood also was up more than 400% year over year in their most recent quarter, which significantly surpassed the growth of equities trading volume on Robinhood
  • Robinhood also has continued to aggressively expand the accessibility on trading crypto on their brokerage platform, adding 7 new digital assets for users in the United States and launching Ethereum staking for users in Europe

Why it matters:

  • Robinhood’s recent revenue surge from crypto trading might be the beginning of a new paradigm shift around where individuals will trade digital assets in the United States, which has previously been completely dominated by Coinbase (NASDAQ: COIN)
