Robinhood CEO: The company has already discussed the issue of establishing a Bitcoin reserve internally
ChainCatcher news, Robinhood CEO Vladimir Tenev stated during his guest appearance on Anthony Pompliano's podcast that the company has discussed the issue of holding Bitcoin internally, but there are no plans to maintain BTC reserves.
He said, "We wouldn't rule that possibility out. So far, we haven't done that, and we're not in the business of being investment managers." The CEO continued to state that although Robinhood has not followed in the footsteps of companies like MicroStrategy and Tesla by adding Bitcoin to its balance sheet, the stock price of his company "has been highly correlated with Bitcoin even though we haven't added Bitcoin to our inventory." Robinhood's stock (ticker: HOOD) has risen 202% this year, while Bitcoin's return so far this year is 110%.
