Robinhood relists major tokens
The move brings the number of supported cryptocurrencies on Robinhood to 19, expanding further reach for the platform as the market explodes amid bullish sentiment.
Weve consistently heard from our customers that they want access to more digital assets, and were excited to continue expanding our crypto offering, said Johann Kerbrat, vice president and general manager of Robinhood Crypto. With lower barriers to entry, we believe crypto presents an opportunity for those who have been historically left behind by the traditional financial system.
As Robinhood Crypto revealed the listing of the digital assets, the prices of Solana (SOL), Pepe (PEPE), Cardano (ADA) and XRP (XRP) surged.
While the SOL, ADA and XRP tokens bounced to key levels, meme coin Pepe exploded to hit a new all-time high. The frog-themed meme coin traded among the top gainers in 100 largest coins by market, with its upside dwarfing Dogecoins own march to above $0.41.
Notably, Robinhoods move to relist SOL, ADA and XRP comes amid market anticipation of a change at the US Securities and Exchange Commission following Donald Trumps election as the next US president.
This is largely because SEC Chair Gary Gensler is expected to exit the agency. Its the regulators designation of SOL and ADA as a security that saw Robinhood delist the tokens. SEC also sued Ripple and alleged XRP was a security until a US court ruled it wasnt in July last year.
