Robinhood plans to launch crypto services in Singapore by late 2025, expanding its global reach through Bitstamp acquisition and regulatory approvals.
Robinhood Markets Inc. is planning to introduce cryptocurrency services in Singapore by late 2025. Bloomberg reports that Robinhood plans to offer these services through Bitstamp Ltd which the company aims to acquire for its European digital-assets exchange operations.
The company has not yet established a specific date for its service launch. Johann Kerbrat, who leads Robinhood Crypto as the vice president and general manager, explained that the company will activate its crypto solutions after satisfying all relevant regulatory demands. The acquisition process for Bitstamp should finish during the first six months of 2025. The crypto services of Robinhood will become available in Singapore a few months after the acquisition deal is completed.
The wider Asian market expansion of Robinhood includes this development. The company declared its intention to enter Asian markets starting from Singapore in December 2024. The main establishment of Robinhood will operate from Singapore where it will also seek additional licenses for selected Asian countries.
Robinhood Targets Singapore for Asian Market Growth Amid International Push
In recent times, Robinhood Services has pursued international growth strategies. The company implemented new features through its platform to European customers in late 2023. In addition, the company introduced cryptocurrency services to Spain in early 2025 while simultaneously adding U.S. equity options trading for UK customers.
The company Robinhood encountered several regulatory problems. Robinhood made a sweeping legal agreement to transfer $45 million to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). According to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Robinhood broke various securities laws.
The company maintains growth momentum despite facing significant hurdles. The mobile platform expanded its European services in October 2024 when it enabled EU customers to move cryptocurrencies in and out through the application. The decision positioned Robinhood to improve its influence in cryptocurrency operations worldwide.
Ultimately, Singapore becomes the latest territory where Robinhood is targeting for market expansion as part of its drive to lead the financial industry. Robinhood demonstrates its dedication to digital asset service delivery by entering the Asian market.
