ROBINHOOD BRINGS CRYPTO TRADING TO MAIN UK APP THROUGH BITSTAMP

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Robinhood is rolling out trading in 50+ digital assets (including BTC, ETH, XRP, and HYPE) to UK users this week via Bitstamp UK, alongside its existing stocks, ISAs, options, and futures. Zero trading/custody/maintenance fees apply, though a 0.1%-0.3% FX fee applies to GBP conversions. Crypto holdings also aren't covered by UK compensation schemes. The launch also introduces AI-powered digests for crypto price context. It follows Q2 results showing prediction markets ($156M revenue) surpassing crypto trading ($100M, down 38% YoY) for the first time, while Robinhood Chain has generated $18 billion in DEX volume since its July 1 launch.
