Crypto notional trading volume totaled $40 billion for the quarter, including $18 billion on Robinhood’s own app and $22 billion through Bitstamp. Robinhood also reported net income of $573 million, or $0.62 per share, versus $386 million, or $0.42 per share, a year earlier. Platform assets grew to $369 billion from $307 billion, quarterly net deposits rose to $21.7 billion from $17.7 billion, and Robinhood Gold subscribers increased to 4.8 million from 4.3 million, Decrypt reported.
