Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev, however, has been persistently bullish about the long-term prospects for crypto. In March, the company rolled out a digital wallet, which supports both the Polygon and Ethereum networks, to its iOS customers around the world. There is currently a waitlist for Robinhood's Android wallet, which is supposed to become available later this year.In the wake of the collapse of FTX, which caused many users to lose money, Robinhood has tried positioning itself as a safe and secure platform for people who want to trade crypto. At the end of last year Tenev said his company gained some market share after FTX's demise.
