Robinhood posted $1.07B in Q1 2026 revenue, up 15%, but crypto income fell 47%. Here’s what drove the numbers.
Robinhood wrapped up the first quarter of 2026 on a mixed note. The trading platform reported total net revenues of $1.07 billion, a 15% year-over-year increase.
Crypto revenue, however, told a different story. It dropped 47% to $134 million. Despite the crypto dip, several other business segments picked up the slack.

Robinhood’s Transaction Revenue Gets a Boost From Options and Event Contracts
As per the Robinhood release, transaction-based revenue grew 7% year-over-year to $623 million. Options revenue climbed 8% to $260 million. Equities revenue jumped 46% to $82 million.
The biggest surprise came from other transaction revenue, which surged 320% to $147 million. That category primarily reflects event contracts, which hit record trading volumes in Q1.
Net interest revenue also posted solid gains. It rose 24% to $359 million. Robinhood attributed this to growth in interest-earning assets. Lower short-term interest rates and reduced securities lending activity partially offset those gains.
Other revenues grew 57% to $85 million.
Robinhood Gold subscription revenue led that growth, rising 32% to $50 million. Gold subscribers also grew 36% year-over-year, reaching 4.3 million users.
