As a seasoned crypto investor who’s been through various market cycles and witnessed the rapid evolution of the industry, I couldn’t be more excited about Robinhood’s acquisition of Bitstamp. With my experience comes a deep appreciation for established players in this field that have proven their resilience and trustworthiness.


Robinhood Markets, Inc. has revealed its plans to purchase Bitstamp Ltd., a well-known international cryptocurrency exchange. Established in 2011, Bitstamp runs offices in Luxembourg, the UK, Slovenia, Singapore, and the United States. This deal is intended to greatly expand Robinhood Crypto’s global reach.

The deal will significantly enhance Robinhood’s cryptocurrency platform by adding Bitstamp’s primary spot trading exchange, boasting approximately 85 tradable assets, as well as offerings such as staking and lending.

Robinhood’s global reach in crypto trading is expanding at a faster pace. Officially, Robinhood has agreed to purchase Bitstamp, a renowned international cryptocurrency exchange, which boasts a customer base spanning Europe, the UK, America, and Asia.
