Robinhood Markets’ stock fell more than 10% on Feb. 2, 2026, following a weekend cryptocurrency sell-off and weaker retail trading and options activity, highlighting the company’s exposure to digital-asset volatility and shifts in retail behavior.

Crypto Market Decline Pressured Shares

Cryptocurrency prices, including Bitcoin, extended declines from the prior week into the weekend before Feb. 2. Multiple reports between 11:15 a.m. and 4:59 p.m. ET linked Robinhood’s share drop to the broader crypto sell-off and reduced trading activity in digital assets.

Dependence on Crypto Trading Volumes

Robinhood depends heavily on crypto trading volumes and retail activity in digital assets and options. Market coverage cited lower crypto volumes and fading activity in the company’s prediction markets as factors contributing to the share decline. A pre-event note on Feb. 2 highlighted that Robinhood’s revenue had doubled year over year while also noting its valuation. No SEC filings, company press releases, or official transcripts confirmed company-specific trading issues during this period.
