Other market participants pointed to user profile concerns, arguing that spreads and execution costs remain disadvantages for traders with larger portfolios, as evidenced by public posts on X.
“No one with big portfolio size should be using HOOD. HOOD rips you off on spreads, bad fills, even worse for crypto.” One commentator stated.
Regulatory Status and Expansion Plans
Robinhood reiterated that its crypto operations remain registered with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and comply with custody and anti-money laundering requirements. During the earnings call, executives confirmed plans to introduce additional crypto-related products and expand into international markets, though no launch schedule was provided.
The company also noted that development of staking features and upgraded wallet services is ongoing. Management said the focus remains on increasing user engagement across its multi-asset platform rather than short-term volume spikes driven by market volatility.
