Robinhood Closes $200 Million Bitstamp Acquisition, Expanding Global Crypto Reach

Robinhood Markets, Inc. has finalized its $200 million acquisition of Bitstamp, a Luxembourg-based cryptocurrency exchange, marking a major step in its global expansion strategy.

The deal, paid entirely in cash, brings Robinhood over 50 new licences and registrations, along with access to Bitstamp’s strong institutional client base.

Bitstamp, founded in 2011, serves over 5,000 institutional clients and approximately 50,000 retail customers. Its institutional business drives most of its trading volume. In the past year, Bitstamp reported $95 million in revenue, while Robinhood’s crypto arm generated $252 million in the first quarter of 2025 alone.

This acquisition gives Robinhood a significant foothold in key international markets, including Europe, the UK, and Asia. Robinhood has already started integrating Bitstamp’s platform, connecting it to Robinhood Legend and its Smart Exchange Routing services. The company expects to incur approximately $65 million in Bitstamp-related costs for the remainder of 2025.

Bitstamp’s global regulatory footprint was a key attraction for Robinhood. The exchange holds licences in more than 50 jurisdictions, including major European countries and Singapore. Notably, Bitstamp’s in-principle approval from the Monetary Authority of Singapore gives Robinhood an important regulatory advantage as it plans to launch crypto products in Singapore before the end of 2025.

Robinhood’s international push doesn’t stop with Bitstamp. In May, it agreed to acquire Canadian crypto platform WonderFi for around $179 million, aiming to strengthen its presence in Canada.

Looking ahead, Robinhood CEO Vladimir Tenev has highlighted real-world asset tokenisation as a major focus. “Bitstamp is now part of Robinhood, adding a globally-scaled crypto exchange and our first-ever institutional crypto business, Our work is just beginning.”

Vladimir believes tokenising private equities could unlock significant value for both individuals and companies, enabling faster and more accessible secondary market transactions.

Robinhood’s shares responded positively to the news, closing up 2.77% on June 2, with further gains in after-hours trading.
