Robinhood is having problems with Dogecoin
Looking at the number of investors talking about trading stocks and cryptocurrencies on Robinhood platform, it's clear that the retail-focused brokerage is still doing incredibly well.
Robinhood's Trading Mentions volume is up +910% YoY on a 7-day moving average.
Elevated Dogecoin (DOGE-USD) trading volume managed to crash the Robinhood's entire app yesterday, contributing to the recent increase in investor chatter.
Still, it will take a much larger event than a Dogecoin-induced outage for investor chatter to surpass the levels seen during the GameStop (GME) short squeeze event, when Robinhood faced a massive backlash for limiting trading on several stocks including GME itself.
