Robinhood, a well-known trading platform for both stocks and cryptocurrencies, has stirred interest in the crypto community by launching crypto staking services in Europe.
This move allows users of the Robinhood app to stake their Solana (SOL) holdings directly, aiming to improve accessibility and user experience in the European crypto market.
The introduction of staking services for Solana (SOL) in Europe by Robinhood signifies a significant progression for the platform. Users of Robinhood Crypto can now stake their SOL holdings through the app, providing them with more flexibility and control over their investment strategies.
According to Johann Kerbrat, VP and GM of Robinhood Crypto, this initiative is driven by feedback from European customers who expressed a desire for localized language support and opportunities to earn passive income. In response, Robinhood is launching its applications in local languages and rolling out tailored features like staking services to meet the needs of its European user base.
This move underscores Robinhood’s commitment to expanding its offerings and making cryptocurrency investment opportunities more accessible. As part of its strategy to increase crypto adoption and attract new users, Robinhood is offering a 10% bonus on the initial buying amount for new customers in USDC.
