Robinhood Crypto review

Robinhood Crypto suits people who already invest in stocks on Robinhood and want crypto in the same app. Default in-app trades go through market maker routing with no explicit fee; instead, Robinhood earns from the spread, and it discloses that as of June 15, 2026 it receives $0.95 for every $100 of crypto order volume routed this way. You can switch eligible coins to exchange routing, where fee tiers range from 0.00% to 0.95% based on your trailing 30-day volume and resting limit orders get a reduced maker fee. Orders routed this way can execute on Bitstamp, which Robinhood owns, or another partner exchange. Robinhood does not charge an extra fee to receive crypto and shows the network fee estimate before you send. Two limits: the reduced and standard fees are still rolling out, and crypto in Robinhood Crypto is not FDIC insured or SIPC protected.
