The US-based leader in democratizing finance, Robinhood Crypto, has rolled out an innovative offer to its customers from Europe: 20+ coins and tokens can now be quickly deposited or withdrawn directly from their wallets on a top flexible platform. The move is an effort to improve the overall user experience and place more control over digital assets under European customers. The launch comes with a 1% deposit match limited-time offer to incentivize users to use the new feature. This move signals the platform’s broader commitment to self-custody, DeFi and secure, low-cost trading as it deepens its presence in Europe.

&nbsp; 
Robinhood Crypto has long dipped a toe in the water by having supported crypto transfers for European users, but Monday will be its formal biggest set of launches yet. With this new deposit and withdrawal feature, users can now have direct access to the deposits and withdrawals of digital assets, including but not limited to Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL) USD Coin (USDC), as well as an extensive range of other cryptocurrencies. The feature gives users more autonomy and control over their assets, a growing trend in the new world of digital finance. 
The move to add a vault feature is another sign that Robinhood crypto is moving towards self-custody, which has been resonating well with customers as they are becoming more aware of how important it is to maintain control of their own digital wealth. Users can hold and control their assets independently when they have self-custody. This gives some extra security and autonomy with regard to DeFi, where owning your assets is of utmost importance. Johann Kerbrat, Vice President and General Manager of Robinhood Crypto, said in a statement that the launch “simplifies self-custody” for customers. 
<h2 id="strong-security-and-flexibility-with-new-features-strong">Security and Flexibility with New Features</h2> 
&nbsp; 
On top of introducing crypto transfers, Robinhood Crypto is also concentrating on improving security and adding more features to its customers. Recently, the platform has continued to focus on the safety of its services to provide customers not only with a reliable trading experience that they have come to expect from Robinhood in stock trading but also now in products related to cryptocurrencies. Being known for its inexpensive yet safe trading, here is an even easier switch on the process of transferring cryptos directly to Robinhood’s development, which ensures a continuation of the familiar offerings. 
The 1% deposit match, which lasts during a designated period of time and will be offered as part of the launch, encourages new users to take advantage of this feature. It might be a very small incentive, but serves as an indication that Robinhood Crypto is interested in smoothening out the path for people moving to self-custody and crypto transfers. Further, the platform is currently advertising “zero-fee Bitcoin trades“, high USDC rewards and the ability to stake Solana— an incentive for users to help transact on its public blockchain with a reward.

Users who wish to utilize any of the staking&nbsp;or earning passive income for their investments in cryptocurrencies appear to have a lot going on for them with these features. By providing them, Robinhood Crypto goes beyond just being a trading platform and is now also a place for you to get the most out of your crypto earnings and join the broader DeFi ecosystem. 
<h2 id="strong-robinhood-crypto-s-role-in-defi-adoption-strong">Robinhood Crypto’s Role in DeFi Adoption</h2> 
&nbsp; 
With this <a href="https://news.bitcoin.com/robinhood-crypto-launches-crypto-transfers-for-european-users/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">expansion</a> into Europe, Robinhood Crypto is further cementing its role in promoting decentralized finance (DeFi) adoption. DeFi, a movement that seeks to replace traditional financial intermediaries with decentralized, blockchain-based systems, has been gaining traction globally. By enabling crypto transfers and focusing on self-custody, Robinhood is giving its users direct access to the DeFi ecosystem, allowing them to participate more fully in staking, yield farming, and other DeFi activities. 
Robinhood Crypto realizes the future of finance is digital and decentralized, and this feature launch is a strong signal of what the company has in mind strategically. The addition of crypto transfers is one more data point in the ongoing trend for leading exchanges to offer DeFi services on their platforms due to customer demand. As Johann Kerbrat pointed out, this new feature is “all about simplifying self-custody and DeFi accessibilities. The move is significant in that a growing number of investors are seeking alternatives to traditional financial systems, and Robinhood’s new offerings make those options more readily available. 
The European expansion of Robinhood Crypto, too, highlights the same focus on security and low-cost trading that has attracted people in the first place to the safe harbour offerings with which we have built our brand — in this case, tailored to meet the unique needs of crypto trading. Allowing users to freely transfer assets on the platform in and out of external wallets is a net positive for Robinhood as it creates more transparency and control, which ultimately should be one of the central tenets of cryptocurrency.

Allowing customers to invest in third-party cryptocurrencies is an important part of our efforts, and we look forward to enabling customers to use the Robinhood platform in other markets outside of the US as well. Built around self-custody, security, and DeFi, this new functionality allows the users to have more control of their assets while simultaneously upholding the platform’s robust nature and low fees. Robinhood Crypto provides a full list of capabilities that would support anyone wanting to get more into the cryptocurrency world —&nbsp;zero-fee&nbsp;Bitcoin trades, plenary USDC rewards and Solana staking. 
The announcement to its existing 13 million active users provides further concrete evidence that the company is dedicated to fostering broader crypto adoption and increasing accessibility to a world of decentralized finance through continued innovation with Robinhood Crypto. From crypto transfers to a debit card &amp; more, Robinhood Crypto is getting ready to take the first step. To everyone in Europe and afar, let’s bring on the same financial opportunities for all.
