Video | Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev: AI-powered agent trading will empower ordinary investors with institutional-level trading capabilities
On July 2nd, Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev stated in an interview with CNBC that AI-powered trading will be a completely new category. For the past few decades, automated trading, high-frequency trading, and complex AI-driven strategies have been almost entirely controlled by institutional investors and Wall Street, making them difficult for ordinary people to access. In the future, AI agents may be able to help ordinary people participate in the market, just like professional traders, further lowering the barriers to financial investment.
Robinhood is upgrading its positioning again; its Securities division has been approved to serve as an IPO underwriter.
Odaily Odaily that Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev announced that Robinhood Securities, the company's brokerage and clearing business, has been approved to act as an IPO underwriter. It is unclear which specific regulatory body granted this approval, but IPO processes are typically overseen by FINRA and the SEC. This move is a further upgrade to Robinhood's existing IPO Access service. Through IPO Access, Robinhood users can participate in subscribing to shares of companies about to go public. Underwriters play a more central role, not only assisting private companies with the listing process but also acting as intermediaries between issuers and investors. (Barrons)
Robinhood CEO: The future of cryptocurrency lies in real-world assets, not Memecoin.
PANews reported on July 3rd that, according to The Block, Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev stated in an interview with CNBC that the key to growth in the crypto industry lies in the on-chaining of real-world assets, not meme tokens. Tenev stated, "If an asset isn't linked to underlying utility, it's not a productive asset," and believes that traditional finance and crypto are converging. He added, "Everything that runs on traditional tracks will eventually be on-chain and tokenized, like an unstoppable freight train." Robinhood launched its Stock Tokens service on Wednesday, allowing qualified users to trade tokenized stocks 24/7, and plans to offer exposure to private companies like OpenAI. Tenev stated that Bitcoin won't become irrelevant, but the next phase of growth in the industry will come from the tokenization of real-world assets.
MARA Holdings purchased 1,000 BTC from FalconX; Robinhood saw a record-breaking nearly 9% increase in trading volume in June, despite layoffs of over 10%.
According to BBX data, the Federal Reserve's hawkish shift yesterday triggered a general decline in crypto stocks, but corporate buying and individual stock divergence occurred simultaneously. Key developments are as follows: MARA Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: $MARA) purchased 1,000 BTC from the crypto liquidity platform FalconX (privately held), for approximately $66.7 million (equivalent to an average price of approximately $66,700 per BTC). This purchase occurred at the same time as the release of the Fed's hawkish dot plot, which put downward pressure on Bitcoin that day. This is the company's first clearly recorded counter-trend buying action recently, following its large-scale sale of 20,880 BTC in Q1 (resulting in a net loss of $1.3 billion in Q1). As of the previously disclosed date (March 31), the company's BTC holdings were 35,303; after this purchase, the total holdings are expected to increase to approximately 36,303 BTC (subject to confirmation from the company's official SEC filings). The transaction has not yet been disclosed in any official company press release or 8-K filing; the data is sourced from on-chain monitoring and awaits official confirmation. Robinhood Markets, Inc. (NASDAQ: $HOOD) bucked the trend yesterday, surging to $110.73 intraday before closing at $105.20 (some real-time quotes show an intraday gain of up to 12%), with a trading volume of 69.77 million shares, approximately 2.3 times the three-month average. On the same day, the company announced it would cut 10% of its full-time staff (incurring approximately $28 million in restructuring costs, including approximately $20 million in severance and benefits costs and approximately $8 million in stock-based compensation expenses). CEO Vlad Tenev emphasized that this move was "due to its strength and position, not financial pressure." Simultaneously, the company disclosed that its average daily trading volume in June reached record highs across the three major categories of stocks, options, and prediction markets. In May, the platform's assets reached $377 billion (up 48% year-on-year), with 27.7 million clients and net inflows of $5.6 billion. On the same day, several institutions, including Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, Needham, Cantor Fitzgerald, and Argus, raised their target prices to the $95-$110 range. Reuters also reported that the SEC was preparing new policies to allow crypto companies to trade tokenized stocks and other products, which was also seen as positive news by the market.
