As per the financial report released on August 2, Robinhood has become profitable for the first time since going public, but the company’s revenue from cryptocurrency transactions shrank by 18% to $31 million.

Interestingly, other transaction-based revenues for Robinhood also dropped considerably, including options, which decreased 5% to $127 million, and equities, which declined 7% to $25 million. Additionally, in the past 12 months, the revenue generated by the American financial services company has decreased by 4%, from $202 million in June last year to $193 million.
