Robinhood jumps on the Crypto train.

in #crypto7 years ago (edited)

For any of you that may have dabbled or started out in Normy trading with stocks you may have also heard or used the free to trade app Robinhood. Robinhood has expanded write a bit over last few months. They are opening up to web based trading slowly but surely (still for most it is only available on mobile), and have also recently opened up option trading (which may lead to a few bankruptcies for those who have no clue what they are doing with options). Today many users have noticed a new notification:

Some people I have talked to are excited to see how this will play out. I tend to look towards the negative but I'll hold back for now until I get my hands on the new addition (apparently there is a waiting list and I'm not a VIP).

Thoughts? Comments? Concerns? Down votes?
No thin skin here.
