CryptoBriefing and crypto.news agree on the product's structure but disagree on whether Robinhood's 10x leveraged crypto perpetuals have actually launched for US users.

CryptoBriefing and crypto.news agree on the product's structure but disagree on whether Robinhood's 10x leveraged crypto perpetuals have actually launched for US users.

What all sources agree on

• The product covers eight crypto assets: BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, DOGE, ADA, LINK and HYPE.
• Bitcoin and Ethereum carry up to 10x leverage, while the other six assets are capped at 3x.
• A 0.01% trading fee applies through the end of 2026.
• The contracts are offered through Robinhood Derivatives using Bitstamp infrastructure.
• Robinhood's Bitstamp acquisition closed in June 2025 for approximately $200 million.
• The announcement came around September 29-30, 2026.

Where the reports disagree

1Whether the perpetual futures product has actually launched or is only planned

Robinhood just opened the door to something US retail traders have been largely locked out of: crypto perpetual futures with meaningful leverage. Starting September 29, select US users can trade no-expiry contracts on major cryptocurrencies with up to 10x leverage on Bitcoin and Ethereum through the company's Derivatives platform and Bitstamp.

Robinhood has announced plans to launch crypto perpetual futures for eligible U.S. customers with leverage of up to 10x, while preparing 24/7 weekend trading for selected U.S. stocks and ETFs.

What would settle it: Robinhood's own product-live confirmation or app release notes showing the contracts are tradable, or the Sept. 29 HOOD Summit release itself.

2Whether a specific launch date has been given

The launch includes eight perpetual contracts across some of the most heavily traded digital assets.

The company gave no specific launch date beyond saying the rollout will take place in the coming months.

What would settle it: Robinhood's Sept. 29 HOOD Summit release or a subsequent company statement specifying a go-live date.

What to make of it

Treat the product's design details (assets covered, leverage caps, fee, Bitstamp infrastructure) as established, but do not assume the product is live and tradable until Robinhood's own release or app confirms a launch date.
