    Bitstamp added WLD and JTO this week. Both have been trading on-chain for over two years. A listing tells you a token cleared a compliance desk. It tells you nothing about when the price moved. By the time a regulated venue can offer you something, the on-chain market has already spent years pricing it. Same asset, different spot in the queue. One line buried in the same announcement: unavailable in New York. Access comes with a jurisdiction attached. Worth knowing where you're standing in that line before you decide you're fine with it. Mentioning a token isn't a recommendation. Most launches lose value. High risk. Source: Bitstamp by Robinhood announcement. Save this for the next listing someone calls early.

    RH tokens paired with tokenized stocks are a fun idea in theory but an awful idea right now liquidity is so thin on most of these tokenized stocks that these new pairs are pushing tokenized stock price to 10x or more of the actual underlying so not only are you making a bet on the coin going up, you are essentially buying in at a 10x+ premium i havent done a lot of research into the tokenized stock mint/redemption mechanism for RH but presumably any authorized participant (bitstamp) can mint infinite tokens as long as its backed 1:1 by the underlying what happens when they do that? price gets arbed down closer to underlying and your token goes -90% even with no sell pressure GL

    BTC Failed to Reclaim 73K? This Is NOT a Safe Dip-Buying Zone — The Real Risk May Be Just Beginning. Looking at the Bitstamp 4H chart, BTC has now dropped from the 82.5K area all the way down to around 73K, and the short-term structure is very clear: lower highs, weaker rebounds, and former support levels are turning into new resistance. The most dangerous part is not just the size of the drop. It’s that selling volume expanded during the decline, while every bounce has looked weak and unconvincing. BTC has already lost 78K, 76K, 75K, and 74K one after another. Right now, price is only struggling to stabilize near 73K, which looks more like a technical bounce after a sell-off — not a real trend reversal. Here are the 3 key levels I’m watching next: 1. 72.5K–72.7K: The final short-term defense zone If BTC breaks below this area and fails to recover quickly, the market could test 72K, or even trigger a deeper panic flush. 2. 73.5K–74K: The first level bulls must reclaim If BTC cannot get back above this zone, every rebound should still be treated as a weak recovery, and bears remain in control. 3. 75K: The real trend-repair line Only a strong move back above 75K would give the market a chance to shift from “ongoing breakdown” into “stabilization and repair.” My view is simple: BTC is still bearish for now. 73K is not a safe bottom-fishing zone — it is a danger zone. If 72.5K fails, another wave of accelerated selling could hit fast. Only if BTC can strongly reclaim 74K does a short-term rebound become more credible. Don’t rush to catch a falling knife. The real opportunity is not guessing the exact bottom — it’s waiting for the market to prove that buyers are truly back. Do you think BTC breaks 72K first, or rebounds back above 74K first? Drop your view below — and follow me for the next key BTC update. Not financial advice.

    MiCA is fully in force as of today, July 1. No CASP license means no legal right to serve EU clients. There's no grace period and no in-between status: an exchange is either authorized or in breach. Binance is exiting the EU, KuCoin is banned, and only around 14 CEXs hold full authorization. Two ways to keep your funds safe: Go noncustodial with iLuminary — hold your own keys, and no licensing gap can freeze or restrict your access. Use a licensed CASP — Coinbase, Kraken, OKX, Bitstamp, Crypto com, Bitvavo, Bybit EU and a handful of others. Always verify the exact legal entity in the official ESMA CASP register before moving anything. Don't wait to get locked out.

    Robinhood just put 50+ cryptocurrencies inside the same UK app as ISAs, stocks, options and futures, routed through Bitstamp UK. Zero trading fees is the billboard. Habit consolidation is the business. The dangerous part for incumbents is not a cheaper crypto tab. It is a customer opening one app for every financial impulse. I will change my mind if reported spreads, withdrawals or retention reveal that the convenience is mostly cosmetic.

    BREAKING :🔊 Robinhood just launched zero-fee crypto trading in the UK (BTC, ETH +50 more) via Bitstamp — same app as stocks & ISAs.

    Germany (via Saxony’s state police/BKA) sold 49,858 BTC, seized from the operators of the PIRACY site movie2k, between June 19 and July 12, 2024. Average sale price was ~$57,900/BTC, netting roughly $2.89 billion. What happened to the money: This wasn’t a strategic reserve decision — it was a forced liquidation. German law requires seized criminal assets prone to volatility to be sold promptly to prevent further loss exposure, so the BKA/Saxon prosecutors routed the coins through five exchanges (Kraken, Bitstamp, Coinbase, Cumberland, Flow Traders) to sell fast. The proceeds went into the state treasury tied to the ongoing criminal case (the movie2k prosecution in Leipzig), not into any Bitcoin reserve or investment vehicle. Germany’s government wallet now holds Zero BTC (not interested) #Bitcoin

    Robinhood Is Bringing Crypto Into the Mainstream UK Investment App .@RobinhoodApp is now rolling out crypto trading to eligible UK customers, bringing digital assets directly into the same app where users already trade stocks, options, futures and ISAs. Powered by Bitstamp UK, the rollout gives users access to 50+ cryptocurrencies, including: $BTC $ETH $XRP $HYPE Zero trading fees and zero custody fees at launch, with a 0.1% FX fee for UK customers. Robinhood is also adding Cortex Digests for Crypto, using AI to explain what is driving crypto prices by analyzing news, market data, technical indicators and other signals. This is a major milestone for Robinhood's broader strategy. The $200M Bitstamp acquisition is now becoming tangible product distribution. Instead of forcing users onto a separate crypto exchange, Robinhood is putting crypto directly alongside traditional investments. This could be more important for crypto adoption than another exchange launch. Robinhood already has millions of users who understand stocks and traditional investing. Giving those users seamless access to BTC, ETH, HYPE and other digital assets lowers the friction between traditional finance and crypto. The company isn't simply adding crypto to its app. It's trying to turn Robinhood into the bridge between traditional investing and on-chain finance.

    @dharmjack01 RE just had its TGE today with listings across Binance, Coinbase, OKX, Robinhood, Bitstamp, KuCoin. CB Ventures took a strategic position. price hit 53 cents earlier. the setup: onchain reinsurance is a $1T market that hasn't been touched. they're offering reUSD at 7% native APR plus 10% in RE rewards. Season 2 incentives running through December distributing 3.5% of FDV. sentiment is bullish short term based on the exchange blitz and RWA narrative momentum. tokenized treasuries just hit $14B onchain, regulatory frameworks opening up for institutional capital in tokenization. bull case: first mover in onchain reinsurance, institutional backing is clear from the listing coordination, competitive yield attracts stablecoin liquidity, perfectly timed with RWA trend that's actually delivering numbers bear case: reinsurance regulation is complex and global, smart contract risk on real world claims, needs massive capital to scale, token could see volatility from early exits despite the listings can't give you price targets. the valuation question is tough this early with limited market data on FDV and circulating supply. structural read: the coordination of those listings on day one of TGE plus CB Ventures backing shows serious market maker support. but success depends on regulatory execution and actually managing real world insurance risk onchain. the yield mechanism needs to prove sustainable under claims pressure.

    With all of this “CT is dead” talk, let’s remember what happened each time the market slowed down and people gave up. Out of the deep 2014-2015 bear came Coinbase, Bitstamp, OKX, and a ton of cryptonative startups, for the first time. Out of the deep 2018-2020 bear came Binance, Aave, Uniswap and OpenSea, and many others. Out of the 2022 bear came Bybit, Solana, Jito, Raydium, Pendle, Pudgy Penguins, LayerZero, and many others. Out of the 2025 market came Hyperliquid, Lighter, Abstract, and many others still cooking. This isn’t the worst market conditions by any means; the sentiment far outweighs the reality to the downside. With Bitcoin, Ethereum and others having a placement on the NYSE and NASDAQ, it’s extremely unlikely to see the same drawdowns we saw in the past on majors. Most money in the financial markets isn’t people investing their own money…it’s funds operating in decades timeframes accumulating positions over years, not in market orders. It is true that the easy times to rotate are over for now. But the real builders have just begun. And the real capital rotation has just begun.

    It’s 2026, and Robinhood is having a record year. Its crypto business isn’t. Q2 2026 net revenue hit $1.31B, up 32% YoY. Crypto revenue fell 38% to $100M, now only 8% of total revenue. Yet Robinhood launched its biggest crypto bet yet. Robinhood Chain went live July 1. The question: can it scale fast enough to make crypto a larger part of Robinhood’s business? ——— ● The Bifurcation Robinhood is expanding across equities, options, event contracts, interest income, credit and retirement. Crypto is moving the other way. ➤ Total revenue: $1.31B, +32% YoY ➤ Crypto revenue: $100M, -38% YoY ➤ App crypto volume: $18B, -35% YoY ➤ Total crypto volume: $40B, including $22B from Bitstamp Robinhood now has 13 business lines generating $100M+ in annualized revenue. Crypto is no longer the obvious growth engine. Chain is an attempt to build another one. ——— ● Robinhood Chain Arrived Fast In its first month, Chain generated roughly $3.6M in revenue, around 38% of tracked L2 revenue at the time. Activity has accelerated since. But the composition is more interesting than the headline growth. ——— ● The Meme Economy Came First Robinhood positioned Chain around tokenized equities, stablecoins and financial infrastructure. The first wave was speculation. July spot volume reached $6.93B. ➤ Memecoins: $3.55B ➤ 51% of spot volume ➤ Tokenized RWAs: $313M ➤ 5% of spot volume Chain is attracting liquidity, but tokenized stocks aren’t driving the first wave. That isn’t necessarily a problem. Early networks often attract speculation before deeper applications emerge. The test is whether Robinhood turns speculative liquidity into a broader financial ecosystem. ——— ● Stablecoins Are Doing the Heavy Lifting Stablecoins now dominate Chain liquidity. Tokenized RWAs have fallen to roughly 6% of TVL, down sharply from early July. The narrative says tokenized financial assets. Current usage says stablecoin-heavy trading and settlement. ——— ● The Revenue Gap Is Still Huge Robinhood generated $100M in crypto revenue in Q2, or roughly $400M annualized. Chain is still small beside that. And Robinhood now has 13 business lines producing $100M+ annually. Chain doesn’t need to become another successful L2. It needs to become economically meaningful to Robinhood. That could come from transaction revenue, stablecoins, tokenized assets, application revenue sharing and, most importantly, moving Robinhood’s existing users onchain. Robinhood already owns the distribution. ——— ● The Real Asset Is Distribution Chain’s value may not be the fees it generates. It could be the additional monetization Robinhood creates by bringing its existing users onchain. One customer could generate revenue across: ➤ Brokerage → trading ➤ Stablecoins → balances and payments ➤ Tokenized assets → trading and settlement ➤ Onchain activity → network revenue ➤ DeFi → financial products If Robinhood connects these pieces, Chain becomes infrastructure for a larger financial ecosystem rather than another L2 fighting for users. ——— ● The Solana Counterexample Solana’s early growth was heavily influenced by speculation before a broader application layer emerged. Robinhood Chain is still extremely early. The test isn’t whether memes dominate today. It’s whether speculative liquidity becomes persistent liquidity. The first use case doesn’t have to be the final one. ——— ● Conclusion Robinhood Chain is growing quickly, but it hasn’t solved the crypto revenue problem yet. The bigger opportunity isn’t chain fees. It’s bringing Robinhood’s existing users onchain and turning distribution into a new growth engine.

  • HammerToe
    Matt Hamilton (@HammerToe) reported

    @SpadesHQ I think there are some main issues that held up adoption 1) Lack of awareness. Most people just don't know it exists. And certainly a lot of people not aware of the better experience it has. 2) Lack of central exchange support for issued assets. Beyond Gatehub, Bitstamp no exchanges supported the XRP Ledger so harder for people to get assets on/off the ledger 3) Lack of first-class adoption by USDC/USDT, you could only go via the re-issued Gatehub token for a while 4) Incentives. Not that I'm saying the XRPL DEX should have them, but most other DEXs did have artificial incentives to drive adoption. 5) "Its not Ethereum". It is just different to what a lot of people are first introduced to. Yes, it is better in many ways (ethereum UX sucks), but it is still hard for people to understand there are better ways 6) FUD. A lot of negative association to Ripple by OGs. The irony being so many people adopted Hyperliquid, which is kinda what the XRP Ledger DEX would be if launched today

    Ok ok ok... Even more lore to this. Everpure P Was deployed directly by RHJ RHJ is Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited. A Jersey special purpose company whose job is to issue Robinhood Stock Tokens. It is not the NYSE company, not Robinhood Markets’ US brokerage, and not the chain itself. It is the legal issuer sitting between “token in a wallet” and “shares in custody.” RHJ is Robinhood’s Jersey issuance vehicle — a thin, newly formed SPV that legally is the Stock Token, while HOOD provides the brand and chain, Alpaca holds the stock, and Bitstamp runs the primary window.

    @Robinhood just brought crypto trading into its main app for UK customers. The rollout, starting this week, lets users buy and sell over 50 digital assets including BTC, ETH, XRP, and HYPE, powered by Bitstamp, the exchange Robinhood acquired last year for $200 million. Trading comes with zero trading fees, no account maintenance fees, and no custody fees, though a 0.1% foreign exchange fee applies, rising to 0.3% for certain weekend conversions. Crypto is offered through Bitstamp UK, registered with the FCA, though holdings are not covered by the FSCS or Financial Ombudsman Service. The launch also brings Robinhood Cortex Digests for Crypto to the UK, an AI feature that analyses news, market data, and technical indicators to explain what is driving price movement in individual assets. Robinhood also highlighted momentum on Robinhood Chain, its Arbitrum-based Layer 2, which has generated more than $18 billion in DEX volume and surpassed $840 million in TVL since launching July 1. The move fits a broader diversification push. Q2 crypto revenue came in at $100 million, down 38% year over year, while prediction markets revenue hit $156 million, overtaking crypto for the first time. Total net revenue rose 32% to $1.31 billion, with net income up 48% to $573 million.
