Robinhood Sees More Flows Into Bitcoin ETFs

Robinhood's crypto GM Johann Kerbrat discusses how the Coldcard wallet hack is pushing more flows into spot Bitcoin ETFs as investors seek safer custody, while Robinhood expands crypto and trading services globally, including a UK launch, tokenized stock offerings in 120+ countries, and AI-powered trading agents. - Overall crypto sentiment unchanged after limited Coldcard hack; no mass exodus from Robinhood. - More inflows seen into spot Bitcoin ETFs, likely as a response to self-custody risks highlighted by the hack. - Robinhood launched crypto trading in the UK, now offering equities, options, futures, and crypto in one app. - Robinhood views crypto as a scalable way to enter markets globally, already reaching 120+ countries via its wallet with tokenized US stocks. - AI agents with customer-set guardrails are now live on Robinhood and on the Ronin chain for DEX interactions. - The self-custody model requires active security maintenance; platforms like Robinhood offer a simpler alternative. - International expansion through crypto could drive user growth and strengthen Robinhood's revenue profile.
