Robinhood Markets Inc. has expanded its cryptocurrency services to Nevada state through its latest collaboration with Shiba Inu (SHIB), a decentralized cryptocurrency based on Ethereum that features the Shiba Inu hunting dog as its mascot. The altcoin is also being widely seen as an alternative to Dogecoin.
With Robinhood’s expansion to the said U.S. state, it is set to offer Shiba Inu and other cryptocurrencies. This operation is expected to fire up enthusiasm for the crypto market in the territory.
Robinhood in Nevada - What Its Operation Will Cover
According to Crypto Potato, once the California-headquartered financial services company starts its business in Nevada, it will facilitate buying, selling, and real-time market data for about 15 digital currencies and assets such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH). As it has also teamed up with Shiba Inu, it is also on the list as well as Dogecoin.
Some other crypto coins accessible on Robinhood’s platform are Aave and Chainlink. At any rate, this notable shift and expansion of cryptocurrency in the United States - this time to Nevada - comes amid the growing market optimism over the anticipated approval of Bitcoin Spot ETF.
Reaction to Robinhood’s Shiba Inu Arrival in the State
Residents of Nevada can easily trade, sell, and buy Shibu Inu now through Robinhood. One of the good things about this is that there is no commission, and people can initially invest as low as $1.
Meanwhile, CoinGape reported that despite Robinhood’s announcement of the availability of crypto in Nevada, DOGE and SHIB did not show big reactions, and in fact, for the most part, there was no reaction to it at all. The only response observed is that the prices of the two digital currencies have slightly retraced after the announcement. This is also known as a retracement, which means a temporary reversal in the crypto market trend.
