Robinhood rolls out wallets to 2M waitlisted users, plans to integrate Lightning
Cryptocurrency and stock trading app Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD) will roll out its digital wallet feature for 2 million additional users.
In a Thursday announcement at the Bitcoin 2022 Conference in Miami, Robinhood chief product officer Aparna Chennapragada said eligible customers who had been on the waitlist for the digital wallet — more than two million people — can now send and receive cryptocurrencies. In addition, the platform is planning to integrate the Bitcoin Lightning Network to reduce the time and cost of transactions as well as their carbon footprint.
