Robinhood ເພີ່ມ USDC ກັບລາຍຊື່ Crypto

Trading platform Robinhood is adding USD Coin (USDC) to its selection of tradable assets.

Robinhood Introduces USDC

Robinhood customers will soon have access to USDC.

ອີງຕາມການ tweet from the company, USDC will be available for transfer via both Polygon and Ethereum. The asset will be available starting on September 21.

Robinhood has not issued a full statement on the addition of USDC. However, the company’s crypto CTO, Johann Kerbrat, ໄດ້ກ່າວວ່າ he will discuss the matter further next week during the Converge22 conference in San Francisco. There, Kerbrat says he will “talk about what [USDC] means for Robinhood, and what’s to come.”

Meanwhile, Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire ຂຽນ: “This is so good! Congrats … and a major win for USDC reaching into [the] mainstream.” He implied that Circle would also attend Converge22 to “dive in” to the topic.

Those statements might suggest that Robinhood may engage more deeply with USDC than it does with other crypto assets. However, Robinhood’s USDC information page does not suggest anything out of the ordinary. That page explains that Robinhood “facilitates USDC purchases and redemptions from Circle” but does not issue USDC or hold USDC reserves.

Furthermore, that page says Robinhood “has no obligation to repurchase your USDC for USD.” That responsibility presumably falls on USDC issuer Circle.

Robinhood currently supports 18 other cryptocurrencies, including major assets such as Bitcoin ແລະ Ethereum.

USDC is the first stablecoin that Robinhood will support as a tradable asset. However, the company also provides real-time data for two other stablecoins: USDT and DAI.

Robinhood has been expanding its crypto offerings gradually in recent years. The company has supported crypto trading since 2018 but did not begin to allow crypto withdrawals until recently. It is now introducing a ກະເປົາເງິນທີ່ບໍ່ຮັກສາ to give customers more direct control over their crypto.

In a recent earnings call, CEO Vlad Tenev said that the company is working on expanding its crypto listings, noting that “customers tell us they want us to introduce more coins.”

Despite its growing support for cryptocurrency, the company is also downsizing. It ວາງອອກ a significant portion of its staff this summer due to a downturn in the crypto market.
