Robinhood's recent acquisition of crypto exchange Bitstamp marks a significant expansion in its global footprint, according to a report by investment bank Architect Partners.

This strategic move underscores the growing importance of cryptocurrency in Robinhood's business model, accounting for 20% of the company's total revenue in the first quarter of 2024. 
Despite facing regulatory scrutiny from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Robinhood continues to strengthen its digital asset business. 
Last month, the company received a Wells Notice from the SEC, a preliminary warning that the regulator could take enforcement action regarding Robinhood's listing of certain crypto tokens that are viewed as potentially unlicensed securities. 
Architect Partners emphasized that the acquisition of Bitstamp would significantly increase Robinhood's ability to operate globally and mitigate the potential impact of regulatory actions in the United States. 
This acquisition immediately expands global reach to enable participation regardless of U.S. actions, the report said. 
The acquisition is also expected to strengthen Robinhood's institutional offerings and position the company as a major player in the emerging digital asset space. 
With its ability to serve institutions, Robinhood is emerging as one of the few publicly traded companies with a strong influence on the cryptocurrency market.

Known for its long operational history and extensive global licensing, Bitstamp was acquired by Robinhood for $200 million in cash. 
This price represents a significant discount from the $500 million valuation Bitstamp received during its majority investment in 2018. 
Architect Partners described Bitstamp as a “significant asset” for Robinhood, citing Bitstamp's established reputation and global reach. 
Robinhood's expansion through this acquisition underscores the company's commitment to growing its presence in the cryptocurrency industry despite regulatory challenges. 
This move is seen as a strategic step to enhance service offerings and maintain a competitive advantage in the global digital asset market.
