Robinhood Introduces Social Trading App With Real-Time Crypto and Stocks Integration

by

Ah, Robinhood! The name now whispers like a fine wine at a gala of high society traders. What was once a humble app has now embraced the social sphere with the grace of an aristocrat entering the ballroom, offering a verified trading network with real-time metrics and AI tools. Not just for the casual gambler anymore, it seems.

The New Dawn of Robinhood: Social Trading for the High-Brow Investor

On September 10, at the grand HOOD Summit 2025, held in the city that never sleeps-Las Vegas-Robinhood, the app that made trading feel like a casual stroll through a farmer’s market, unveiled its latest creation. Robinhood Social, a community that marries live trades with public profiles, for those who like to “talk the talk” as they “walk the walk.” Because why not have a chat while your money burns and churns in the market?

“We have created Robinhood Social, a place where verified trades and authentic profiles live in harmony, allowing you to discuss strategies, follow experts, and indulge in some intellectual sparring,”

And, let’s be clear-this isn’t just another social media site where you cry about your portfolio losses. No, Robinhood Social is specifically designed to address the doubt that has plagued many a trader. Where should one turn for advice? To Twitter? Instagram? Reddit? Of course not. Robinhood integrates the social media experience into the very core of trading itself, so that all trades-yes, even yours-are verified in real-time. Finally, a place where the trades unfold as honestly as a Russian novel. 🙄

Now, don’t go thinking this is all for the novice trader. Chief Executive Vlad Tenev, in a rare moment of existential revelation, declared, “Robinhood is no longer just where you trade – it’s your financial superapp.” Because why settle for one thing when you can have it all? Stocks, options, futures, crypto… and the occasional political insider’s stock tip. All without ever leaving the app. It’s like a buffet where the food is constantly changing. 🍽️

The truly enlightened will now be able to follow not just other traders but also hedge funds, insiders, and perhaps, the occasional politician, because-why not? No one’s too big for the trading table these days. To make sure everyone stays honest in this new world of digital trust, every profile is verified under strict know-your-customer rules. Trust but verify, as the saying goes. 👀

Now, if you’re imagining some kind of secret club, let me disappoint you. Robinhood Social is launching by invitation only. Yes, you’ll have to wait like a peasant at the gates of Versailles until you’re deemed worthy. Early next year, the app will roll out to select customers in the US, and eventually, the rest of us common folk can join the revolution. And the best part? No additional cost! Because why should success have to cost extra? 🤷‍♂️

In a final flourish, Robinhood also expanded its Legend platform. What does that mean, you ask? Futures trading and crypto support. A little more spice for your trading soup. The trading ladders, already a hit with mobile users, will soon extend to stocks, ETFs, and crypto in the US-though, for reasons beyond us, crypto will remain unavailable in the UK. Apparently, the Queen still prefers to trade her stocks the old-fashioned way. 🇬🇧

And last but not least, Robinhood has introduced Robinhood Cortex-an AI assistant that helps you create custom chart indicators without needing to know how to code. Because who has time for that? With Cortex, the AI scans everything from stocks to crypto, providing a clear view of what’s going up and what’s going down. It’s like having a second brain… that doesn’t need sleep. 🧠
