- Robinhood’s crypto trading volume surged 74% YoY in February 2026 to $25.0 billion, despite a record Bitcoin selloff earlier in the month.
- Total Platform Assets dipped to $314 billion, a 3% drop from January, but still grew 68% compared to the previous year.
- The SEC and CFTC signed a memorandum of understanding to coordinate oversight, reducing compliance uncertainty for crypto firms.
In February 2026, Robinhood reported a dramatic 74% year-over-year surge in its crypto trading volumes, according to the company’s monthly metrics. This impressive growth to $25.0 billion came as bitcoin demonstrated robust recovery following a record selloff earlier in that month.
Consequently, retail sentiment on Bitcoin trended in a ‘neutral’ territory as the price hovered near the $70,424 mark. “Bitcoin is currently holding $70,200, marking a successful stabilization above the psychological $70k barrier,” one user observed.
However, this crypto strength contrasted with other areas of Robinhood’s business. The app’s Average Daily Volumes for its core platform fell 35% year-over-year to just $336 million during February.
Meanwhile, the company’s Total Platform Assets were $314 billion. This figure was down 3% from January 2026, yet it still represented a 68% increase compared to the prior year.
The regulatory environment for crypto also saw a significant shift. The coordination between the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ended their long-standing rivalry.
This formal cooperation removes uncertainty over which agency crypto firms like Robinhood must report to, as data shows. The alignment is expected to substantially reduce legal costs for the industry.
