At present, Robinhood Crypto offers trading in seven cryptocurrencies. These consist of Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin SV, Dogecoin, Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, and Litecoin. However, in late January, the firm briefly halted all crypto trading due to clearing house concerns revolving around the r/wallstreetbets frenzy.

The firm suffered negative PR due to the Gamestop saga. Their CEO Vladimir Tenev also had to testify before Congress earlier this month to unpack the Reddit-fueled craze.

On Feb.18, the firm announced that they would allow users to withdraw their cryptocurrencies. Currently, users’ funds are held in Robinhood’s custodial wallet and cannot be withdrawn.
