Robinhood launches perpetual futures and own blockchain in Europe

Robinhood is taking a significant step towards traditional financial markets while simultaneously announcing a range of new products. The company is launching perpetual futures linked to commodities, ETFs and currencies for European users, while also unveiling its own blockchain, AI-driven trading accounts and expanded access to tokenised US stocks.

Perpetual futures with leverage for European users

European Robinhood users will gain access to perpetual futures on a range of assets, including gold, silver, crude oil and the euro-dollar exchange rate. The products offer leverage of up to 10x, making the platform more attractive for active traders looking to capitalise on price movements in commodity markets. That is according to Bloomberg based on information from the company.

Robinhood also announces that it will soon roll out crypto services in the United Kingdom. In addition, the company’s Singapore entity has received a capital markets services licence, allowing it to officially offer brokerage services in that region. The expansion shows that Robinhood is firmly sharpening its international ambitions.

Blockchain, AI and stablecoin yield in the US

In the United States, Robinhood is introducing Crypto Earn, a product that allows users to lend USDG stablecoins via self-custody wallets. The estimated annual yield is 7%. At the same time, the company is revising its fee structure for professional crypto traders and plans to introduce AI agents capable of independently trading digital assets.

In addition to these products, Robinhood is unveiling its own blockchain and expanding access to tokenised US stocks. With this combination of decentralised finance, artificial intelligence and traditional asset classes, the company is increasingly positioning itself as an all-in-one platform for both crypto natives and mainstream investors.
