Robinhood says crypto trading surged 75% in November from previous month

Robinhood said Monday in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that crypto trading on the platform surged last month amid an ongoing rally.

"November Crypto Notional Trading Volumes were roughly 75% above October 2023 levels," it wrote in an 8-K update , adding that it would release full operating data for the month in the coming weeks. 

The news could mark a reversal for the company, which has lately seen revenue from crypto trading decline. In the third quarter, transaction-based revenues from cryptocurrencies decreased 55% to $23 million. It also saw decreases in the second quarter . 

The company said last month that it planned to start offering crypto trading in the EU following its UK launch.
