Robinhood To Acquire Bitstamp Crypto Exchange For $200 Million In Cash

Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ: HOOD) is digging deeper into crypto. The firm this morning announced that it has reached an agreement to acquire Bitstamp Ltd, a crypto exchange with operations in the EU, UK, US, and Asia.

The transaction is said to be a milestone for Robinhood, with the purchase bringing it its first institutional business. Bitstamp presently has institutional clients that it provides trading, white labeling solutions, lending, and staking to.

“Through this strategic combination, we are better positioned to expand our footprint outside of the US and welcome institutional customers to Robinhood,” commented Johann Kerbrat, GM of Robinhood Crypto.

Total consideration under the transaction is said to be roughly $200 million in cash, subject to regulatory approvals.

The transaction is currently slated to close in the first half of 2025.

Robinhood Markets last traded at $21.57 on the Nasdaq.
