Robinhood Unveils Crypto Perpetual Futures and Weekend Stock Trading Plans
Roger that! Robinhood is set to roll out crypto perpetual futures for eligible US users. These contracts will offer up to 10x leverage on Bitcoin and Ether, while other assets like Solana, XRP, Dogecoin, ADA, LINK, and HYPE will be capped at 3x.
The trades will be supported by Bitstamp and cost 0.01% per trade through the end of 2026. Robinhood also plans to introduce 24/7 weekend trading for select US stocks and ETFs pending regulatory review.
This announcement comes after US regulators opened a clearer path for these products earlier this year, with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission approving a Bitcoin-linked perpetual contract from KalshiEX as a futures product.
