Robinhood, the popular trading platform, has expanded its cryptocurrency trading services to customers in the European Union. This move allows users to access over 25 different cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana. The company aims to position itself as a safe and regulated option for crypto customers, offering repayment of a percentage of trading volume in Bitcoin and referral bonuses in the top cryptocurrency.
Johann Kerbrat, the GM at Robinhood Crypto, emphasized the importance of crypto in the company’s effort to democratize finance for all. He highlighted the EU’s comprehensive policies for crypto asset regulation as a reason for choosing the region for expansion.
This expansion aligns with Robinhood’s global strategy and commitment to democratizing finance. Last week, the company introduced its stock brokerage services in the United Kingdom.
The timing of this launch coincides with the current bullish sentiment in the crypto market, with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies experiencing price increases. Robinhood reported a significant surge in cryptocurrency trading volume in November, marking a reversal from declining activity earlier in the year.
