Robinhood Launches Crypto Perpetual Futures with Up to 10x Leverage
Robinhood is expanding its services to include crypto perpetual futures for eligible US customers. The company will offer up to 10x leverage on Bitcoin and Ether, while other altcoins will have a maximum of 3x leverage. These contracts will be offered through Bitstamp, which Robinhood acquired in 2025.
The perpetual futures will not expire, but profit and loss will be settled every 15 minutes. Users can monitor liquidation prices, set stop-loss and take-profit orders, and receive alerts when positions approach liquidation risk.
This move is part of Robinhood's push to offer more products and services to its customers. The company also plans to introduce weekend trading in selected US stocks and ETFs, subject to regulatory review.
