Robinhood’s crypto volume increases 61% in August, still down 38% YoY

Robinhood's August crypto trading volume surged 61% month-over-month to $17.5 billion, though it remained 38% lower than the same period last year, according to the online brokerage's August 2026 monthly operating report. Bitstamp, acquired by Robinhood in June 2025, contributed $10.1 billion to this total, accounting for 57% of the company's crypto volume in August, a 53% increase from July but a 30% decline compared to August 2025.

The Robinhood app contributed $7.4 billion, up 72% month-over-month but down 46% from August 2025. Crypto transaction revenue fell 38% year-over-year to $100 million in the second quarter, with growth in event contracts, options, and equities offsetting the decline, leading to record quarterly revenue and earnings. The report did not include crypto volume from Robinhood Chain.
