“Introducing our latest investment in crypto, Robinhood Connect: A low-cost, on-ramp for customers, and a seamless integration for developers.
Ready to try Robinhood Connect? You can now buy and transfer crypto on MyDoge Wallet, Giddy, & Slingshot. And next up, Exodus & Phantom.”
Last month, Robinhood also updated its self-custodial crypto wallet to make it available to all iOS users. The firm likewise plans to make the app compatible with the Android operating system this year.
