Robinhood said eligible US‑based crypto traders will soon be able to connect third‑party AI agents to execute trades on their behalf. The announcement was made during a presentation on Friday. The feature builds on a similar tool that was rolled out for equities and options traders in May. Robinhood has not set a launch date, but indicated that the service will be available to its UK customers next. Johann Kerbrat, senior vice president and general manager of crypto at Robinhood, said the agents can create strategies with specific guardrails. They are also designed to reduce the need for constant account monitoring. Eligible users will be able to link agents from providers such as Anthropic, OpenAI and SpaceX’s Grok. The platform also plans to let AI agents make credit‑card purchases on users’ behalf. Robinhood’s crypto strategy includes the launch of its Ethereum layer‑2 network. The network processed 17 million transactions from nearly 350,000 wallet addresses in its first week. Since the beta launch of the AI agent product for equities and options in late May, more than 70,000 agentic accounts have been created. AI agents are intended to give retail investors access to data that institutions have traditionally used, potentially narrowing the gap between retail and institutional trading. Several integrations have emerged in recent months, including Amazon Web Services’ integration of Coinbase’s x402 payments protocol into its Bedrock AgentCore, which enables agents to spend USDC stablecoin. Crypto wallet Oobit also launched a Visa‑supported virtual card that lets AI agents spend USDT for businesses. Artemis data shows that AI‑agent transaction volume on the blockchain remained limited, with only about $2 million processed through the x402 protocol in June. Industry executives such as Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong and Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire have suggested that AI agents will become the primary users of blockchain payments in the coming years. While the new feature expands Robinhood’s offering, the overall scale of AI‑driven crypto activity is still small relative to total crypto trading volume.
