Robinhood revolutionizes crypto trading

The year 2025 is proving to be a turning point for Robinhood, as it continues to strengthen its position in the cryptocurrency sector. 

The company announced a series of new features dedicated to both U.S. and European users, consolidating its strategy of global expansion and innovation.

With crypto assets under custody reaching $51 billion at the end of the third quarter of 2025 and a notional trading volume of $232 billion over the past twelve months, Robinhood establishes itself as one of the main players in the digital trading landscape.

New Features for US Customers

ETH and SOL Staking for New York

One of the most anticipated updates concerns the staking of Ethereum and Solana, which will be available to clients residing in New York starting December 9. 

This feature allows users to earn rewards by staking their assets, a practice increasingly popular among crypto investors seeking to maximize returns.

Expansion of Fee Levels

Robinhood introduces a significant revision of the fee tiers for cryptocurrency trading. 

Eligible U.S. users will now have access to seven different fee tiers, compared to the previous three, with rates dropping to as low as 0.03% for high-volume traders. 

This change makes the platform even more competitive, especially for those who trade frequently or with large capital.

Advanced Tax Cost Management

Starting from December 22, clients will be able to manually add the cost basis for crypto deposits. 

This feature allows you to keep tax lots, profit and loss, and the average cost of assets up to date, simplifying tax management and reporting of trading activities.

Improvements to the Trading API

In January, Robinhood will implement support for the new fee tiers within its cryptocurrency trading API in the United States. 

This update provides developers and professional traders with more flexible and powerful tools to integrate the platform into their investment strategies.

Robinhood Accelerates in Europe

New Perpetual Futures and Leverage up to 7x

After the launch of perpetual futures on bitcoin and ethereum, Robinhood expands its range of trading pairs by including XRP, solana, dogecoin, and sui. 

Eligible European users will also be able to leverage up to 7x, increasing profit opportunities (but also risks) for those who wish to trade with higher margins.

Money Market Funds: interest also in liquidity

Robinhood introduces Money Market Funds (MMFs), instruments that allow clients to earn interest on uninvested cash. 

Even when not trading, the deposited funds can generate yield, thus providing an additional competitive advantage over other platforms.

Over 1,000 Stock Tokens Coming Soon

In line with the announcement made at the beginning of the year, Robinhood will make available over 1,000 Stock Tokens to eligible European users. 

These tokens represent a new frontier for digital investment, allowing access to a wide range of tokenized equities.

The Web Experience Arrives in Europe

Until now, Robinhood was accessible in Europe exclusively via mobile app. By the end of the month, the company will launch its web platform for European investors as well, starting with crypto trading. 

This update caters to those who prefer managing their portfolio from a desktop, offering an intuitive and organized interface.

Robinhood Chain: the proprietary blockchain in collaboration with Arbitrum

Another significant announcement concerns the creation of Robinhood Chain, a blockchain developed in collaboration with Arbitrum. 

The goal is to promote the tokenization of real and digital assets, paving the way for new investment opportunities and innovation. 

This initiative represents a significant step towards the creation of an increasingly comprehensive and integrated crypto platform, capable of meeting the demands of a constantly evolving market.

An increasingly powerful and intuitive crypto ecosystem

The innovations announced by Robinhood demonstrate the company’s commitment to building the most intuitive and powerful crypto platform on the market. 

The introduction of advanced tools for tax management, new yield opportunities, the expansion of trading functionalities, and the creation of a proprietary blockchain are just some of the moves that are redefining industry standards.

Robinhood aims to redefine digital trading

With record growth and a series of innovations targeting both the United States and Europe, Robinhood confirms itself as one of the key players in the crypto revolution. 

The focus on user needs, the expansion of features, and the commitment to technological development make the platform a benchmark for anyone looking to invest in bitcoin, ethereum, and other digital assets. The future of crypto trading increasingly seems to be in the hands of those who, like Robinhood, know how to anticipate trends and offer cutting-edge solutions.
