Florida Investigates Robinhood Over Alleged Misleading Crypto Fee Claims

BTCCSquare news:
Robinhood crypto LLC is under scrutiny by Florida's Attorney General for potentially deceptive marketing practices. The state alleges the platform's claim of offering 'the least expensive way to purchase crypto' lacks substantiation. A subpoena has been issued for internal documents to verify these assertions.
While Robinhood operates as a commission-free platform, its revenue model—earning through payment for order flow—may result in hidden costs for users. Florida's investigation focuses on whether customers receive full transparency regarding actual trading expenses.
Despite regulatory challenges, Robinhood continues its crypto expansion strategy, recently completing a $200 million acquisition of Bitstamp to bolster global operations.
