Key Takeaways
-
Robinhood’s crypto revenues almost doubled, reaching $160 million—a 98% rise YoY. However, this narrowly missed expectations, as analysts had projected $169 million
-
Kraken’s adjusted earnings dipped amid softer Q2 trading activity industry-wide—a seasonally slow quarter compounded by macroeconomic headwinds including US tariff impacts and volatility. Still, Kraken’s strong top-line growth, rising trading volumes, and asset inflows highlight solid platform engagement and retention.
