  • Компания усилила позиции на криптовалютных рынках Европы и Азии.
  • Приобретение расширило институциональную клиентскую базу.
  • Bitstamp уже начали интегрировать в систему Robinhood.

Американская финтех-компания Robinhood завершила сделку по приобретению криптовалютной биржи Bitstamp. Сумма соглашения составила $200 млн, выплаченных наличными. Покупка позволит Robinhood укрепить институциональные предложения и расширить присутствие за пределами США, говорится в пресс-релизе.

Bitstamp зарегистрирована в Люксембурге и обладает более чем 50 лицензиями и разрешениями на ведение криптовалютной деятельности в Европе, Великобритании и Азии. Биржа обслуживает свыше 5000 институциональных и 50 000 розничных клиентов, причем основная часть объемов приходится именно на корпоративный сегмент.

Robinhood уже начала интеграцию платформы Bitstamp в свою инфраструктуру. Новая система подключена к Robinhood Legend и Smart Exchange Routing — внутренней системе маршрутизации ордеров. Компания дополнительно ожидает понести $65 млн расходов, связанных с поглощением, до конца 2025 года.

По имеющимся данным, в период с апреля 2024 по апрель 2025 года Bitstamp сгенерировала $95 млн выручки. Для сравнения, криптовалютное подразделение Robinhood заработало $252 млн только за I квартал 2025 года, на фоне роста интереса к цифровым активам.

Покупка Bitstamp — часть более широкой стратегии расширения компании. В мае Robinhood объявила о планах приобрести канадскую криптоплатформу WonderFi за $179 млн. По словам главы Robinhood Crypto Йоханна Кербрата, компания открыта к дальнейшим сделкам в этом секторе.

CEO компании Владимир Тенев отметил, что следующий приоритет — развитие токенизации. Он считает, что выпуск токенизированных акций крупных частных компаний, таких как OpenAI или SpaceX, способен предложить значительную экономическую ценность инвесторам в США.

Напомним, мы писали, что глава Robinhood предсказал появление ИИ-компаний и сравнил их с биткоином от Сатоши.

US CFTC Launches Broad Investigation into Polymarket, Is the Prediction Market Party Coming to an End?

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is conducting a broad investigation into the prediction market platform Polymarket, focusing on its business practices including social media promotions. This follows a bipartisan letter from U.S. senators urging the CFTC to probe alleged fraudulent marketing tactics used to promote gambling-like products. The action coincides with a period of explosive growth for the prediction market sector, driven by events like the World Cup, with platforms like Kalshi and Robinhood reporting record trading volumes and revenue. The investigation signals a potential end to the sector's unregulated expansion and may lead to clearer federal oversight, particularly regarding investor protection and distinguishing prediction markets from traditional sports betting. The CFTC's move has also intensified a jurisdictional conflict with multiple U.S. states (including Kentucky and New York), which have sued platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi, accusing them of operating illegal sports betting and threatening state gambling tax revenues. Furthermore, the CME Group has sued the CFTC, challenging its approval of certain prediction market products. The report also highlights the political and capital interests intertwined with the industry. Donald Trump Jr. holds advisory and investment roles in both Kalshi and Polymarket, and the Trump administration has previously emphasized federal regulatory authority over these markets. The CFTC's investigation into Polymarket is framed as a step towards formalizing the industry's regulatory landscape, moving it from a phase of "wild growth" towards a more structured future.

U.S. CFTC Launches Extensive Investigation into Polymarket, Is the Prediction Market Frenzy Season Cooling Down?

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has launched a broad investigation into the prediction market platform Polymarket, focusing on its business practices including social media activities. This follows a bipartisan letter from U.S. senators urging the CFTC to probe allegations of paid influencer false marketing and fraudulent promotion of gambling-like products to American users. The investigation comes as the prediction market sector experiences explosive growth, largely driven by the World Cup. Weekly trading volumes have hit record highs, exceeding $14.4 billion, with platforms like Kalshi and Robinhood's new venture seeing significant activity. Major firms like Meta are also showing interest in the space. This regulatory scrutiny signals a potential end to the sector's "wild growth" phase. The CFTC's move also highlights an escalating jurisdictional conflict between federal regulators and state authorities. Over a dozen states, including Kentucky and New York, have sued platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi, accusing them of operating illegal sports betting, which threatens state gambling tax revenues. The CFTC is countersuing to assert its exclusive federal jurisdiction over these "event contracts" as derivatives. Furthermore, the CFTC's approval of Kalshi's Bitcoin perpetual futures contract has sparked a lawsuit from traditional exchange CME, alleging regulatory overreach. The political and capital landscape is intricate, with Donald Trump Jr. holding advisory roles and investments in both Kalshi and Polymarket. This connects capital, political influence, and regulatory bodies, suggesting the current investigation may be a step toward formalizing the industry's rules rather than halting its progress.
