Robinhood is the world’s most successful FinTech trading company. They have already conquered TradFi. What are they targeting next?
In June, they announced the acquisition of Bitstamp, the oldest crypto exchange. They’re increasingly investing in crypto and we felt it was important to know their plans.
We brought the co-founder Vlad Tenev and we had a wide-ranging conversation covering topics like tokenization, Robinhood’s Wallet and L2, payment for orderflow and MEV, the SEC Wells Notice and much more.
