Robinhood launches Ethereum and Solana staking in the US
Robinhood has officially enabled Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) staking services in the US, allowing customers to earn rewards by locking up their digital assets to help secure these networks. This move marks a significant milestone for Robinhood, as it now joins other platforms in bringing staking services to the market.
As of today, users can stake their ETH and SOL tokens directly through Robinhood’s platform, with rewards distributed based on network protocol rates minus applicable fees. It is essential to note that for Ethereum staking, customers will receive between 50% to 100% of the protocol rate due to the platform’s batch-processing approach of combining stakes to reach the 32 ETH validator requirement.
The service is not available in California, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, and Wisconsin. Starting October 1, 2025, Robinhood Crypto will charge a 25% fee on staking rewards, in addition to third-party staking partner fees.
Robinhood had previously held off on offering crypto staking to US users amid regulatory ambiguity and enforcement by the SEC. However, with recent shifts toward greater clarity, the platform has been able to join others in bringing staking services to the market.
It is worth mentioning that this service is now available for U.S. customers, but as always, it is crucial to stay updated on any changes or developments related to your crypto holdings and the broader cryptocurrency landscape.
