62% of crypto-related revenue came from the meme crypto Dogecoin trading. During the first quarter, the share of this cryptocurrency was only 34%. Robinhood noted:

"If demand for Dogecoin transactions declines and is not replaced by new demand for another cryptocurrency available for trading on our platform, our business, financial conditions and operating results could be adversely affected."

This is Robinhood's first report since the company went public on July 29. The app allows investors to buy and sell seven digital currencies, including Bitcoin, Dogecoin and Ether.
