Robinhood Expands into Crypto Trading in UK Market

Robinhood has launched cryptocurrency trading in the UK, expanding its offerings to eligible customers. This move mirrors that of competitor Coinbase, which first introduced crypto trading and later added traditional securities.

The launch is part of Robinhood's ambition to become an all-in-one investment platform for users. Initially, it will offer over 50 crypto assets through a partnership with Bitstamp UK Ltd, which operates as 'Bitstamp by Robinhood.'

Robinhood acquired Bitstamp in June 2025 for approximately $200 million in cash. The company aims to become the top all-in-one investment platform in the country, according to Jordan Sinclair, President of Robinhood U.K. Ltd and GM of Bitstamp UK.
