In a tweet Wednesday, the app provider said it "fully intends" to provide the extra functionality, though not date is provided for when it might be activated. Currently, traders can only buy and sell crypto assets within the app, according to its support page.
So much interest in Crypto! To be crystal clear đ, we fully intend to provide the ability to deposit and withdraw cryptocurrencies, including DOGE. Robinhood Crypto does NOT currently invest in cryptocurrency or use any customer cryptocurrency for our own benefit.

The tweet came an hour before Bloomberg published an article alleging Robinhood was the owner of the world's largest dogecoin wallet. Robinhood stated in the tweet that it "does not currently invest in cryptocurrency or use any customer cryptocurrency" for its own benefit.
The popular mobile trading platform has been under fire recently after it limited its users' ability to buy cryptocurrencies and certain volatile securities, including GameStop stock, last month.
Robinhood cited "extraordinary market conditions" as the primary reason, before later saying its clearing firm raised the fees for conducting transactions beyond what Robinhood could afford to pay.
The company raised $3.4 billion in an emergency fund during the volatile period.
The decision to "limit instant buying power for crypto" meant users had to resort to using settled funds for their purchases, as CoinDesk reported at the time.

Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev is set to testify in front of Congress Thursday about what occurred during the GameStop pump, which was led by Reddit trading group r/WallStreetBets.
In a written introduction, Tenev said his company had "introduced features that have opened the door for many investors who have historically been unable to access the stock market."

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.
What to know:
- KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
- This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoinâs activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
- Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
- Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoinâs role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
- Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.

Gold tops $5,000 as bitcoin stalls near $87,000 in widening macro-crypto split: Asia Morning Briefing
Bitcoinâs onchain data points to supply overhang and weak participation, while goldâs breakout is priced by markets as a durable macro regime shift.
What to know:
- Goldâs surge above $5,000 an ounce is increasingly seen as a durable regime shift, with investors treating the metal as a persistent hedge against geopolitical risk, central bank demand and a weaker dollar.
- Bitcoin is stuck near $87,000 in a low-conviction market, as on-chain data show older holders selling into rallies, newer buyers absorbing losses and a heavy supply overhang capping moves toward $100,000.
- Derivatives and prediction markets point to continued consolidation in bitcoin and sustained strength in gold, with thin futures volumes, subdued leverage and weak demand for higher-beta crypto assets like ether reinforcing the cautious tone.
