I have reacted positively to Robinhood’s momentum and growth, and I have also noticed prediction-market figures and investment claims associated with Robinhood. Some of the numbers below came from other people’s quoted posts, not from my own reporting or independent verification.
On November 5, 2024, I wrote “Wow” while quoting @vladtenev. He said they crossed 100M on Sunday and hit 200M one day later, but the captured post does not specify what those figures measure. My reaction did not clarify what I was reacting to.
On May 13, 2025, I wrote, “Wow Robinhood is on fire. Caught the bottom on this one.” The post does not identify what “this one” referred to beyond a linked item.
On May 15, 2025, I called an unidentified group “legends” and said something was “cooking with Robinhood,” without explaining what was developing. The post quoted @compoundrz, who claimed Renaissance Technologies increased its $HOOD position by 38% in Q1 and then owned $1 billion in the stock. Those were @compoundrz’s claims, not figures I independently verified.
On May 19, 2025, I wrote that Robinhood was “absolutely cooking” while quoting @StockMKTNewz. They claimed users held more than $220.6 billion worth of assets on Robinhood, up from $63 billion in 2020. The post did not specify the measurement date or methodology, and I did not independently verify the figures.
On June 12, 2025, I called Robinhood’s acquisition strategy “Absolutely brilliant” and said the post I was quoting was great. @artlevy described Robinhood’s X1 deal as a $95M acquisition of a “failing” credit card startup, followed by approximately $160M in revenue and a $2.5B enterprise value in less than 2 years. @artlevy framed it as a possible “greatest tuck-in M&A of all time” and linked a breakdown; these figures and opinions were theirs, not results I reported or independently verified. ^x1acq
On May 15, 2026, I called it “Interesting” that Robinhood was selling gold bars on Shopify. I shared https://t.co/3KyPwNZnRs, but my post did not give details about how or where the bars were sold or what the linked page contained. This also touches on new ways to sell on shopify. ^x1gold
On August 31, 2026, I said Robinhood-chain meme coins had recently been “going absolutely crazy,” agreed with Brian generally that Robinhood was “printing,” and said Robinhood stock had been one of my favorites for a while. I also said I use Robinhood’s Gold credit card daily and prefer it to the Amex Gold; my card experience connects with robinhood gold card experience. I did not say I had bought stock or traded the meme coins. In the quoted post, @thebrianjung suggested that people with 7 to 8+ figs of liquid cash could get lower-risk exposure to the Robinhood-chain crypto narrative by buying Robinhood stock through public equities. Brian claimed accruing fees could send the stock soaring by the next earnings call, gave $HOOD’s prior all-time high as $148 in “last year November,” and said the stock moves sharply in price discovery. He acknowledged that stock was not the highest risk/reward option compared with onchain activity, but presented it as a more peace-of-mind alternative for some investors. These investment suggestions and market claims were Brian’s, not evidence of my own trading or independently verified figures; the quoted text cuts off mid-sentence. ^x1fees
On September 5, 2026, I said I only talk about a stock when I have my money where my mouth is. I called Robinhood one of my favorites, said I had sniped a beautiful entry “this year,” and said I thought it was still “just warming up.” I did not give an entry price, exact date, return, or basis for that outlook. I also said I was returning to the ecom trenches, without giving a reason. ^x1bull
