Robinhood has officially introduced Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) staking for users in the United States, expanding a feature previously limited to its European customers.
The update allows American users to earn staking rewards directly through the app, with a minimum entry of just $1.
The platform handles the technical side of staking, bundling ETH to meet validator thresholds and simplifying participation for SOL holders. Rewards for Ethereum staking are distributed at 50–100% of the protocol rate, depending on Robinhood’s batching system.
While the move signals a major push into crypto services, staking won’t be available everywhere. Users in states like California, New York, and Wisconsin remain excluded due to regulatory limits. Starting in October, Robinhood will also introduce a 25% commission on staking rewards—plus third-party fees—bringing it in line with industry norms.
The launch comes as Robinhood deepens its crypto strategy, with acquisitions like Bitstamp and WonderFi and plans to build its own blockchain on Arbitrum. By focusing on accessibility and ease of use, the company is positioning itself as a more retail-friendly alternative in the increasingly competitive staking space.
