Robinhood Lists HBAR for U.S. Traders, Fueling 7% Price Surge and Wider Adoption

Robinhood Adds HBAR to Its U.S. Crypto Lineup

July 25, 2025 – U.S.-based crypto traders just got new access to Hedera Hashgraph’s HBAR token. Robinhood officially added HBAR to its crypto offerings for U.S. users, expanding the token’s reach and opening up a new pipeline for retail adoption.

This follows Hedera’s previous listing on Robinhood’s European platform and adds HBAR to a growing roster of 28 tokens on the app—including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Dogecoin, and Shiba Inu.

The impact was immediate. HBAR’s price jumped nearly 7%, briefly touching $0.25, before stabilizing around 3.5% higher than the previous day. The move reignited momentum for HBAR, which had recently dipped from a local high of $0.29.

Why It Matters for HBAR and Hedera

The Robinhood listing comes at a time when Hedera’s fundamentals are gaining traction:

• Real-world asset tokenization use cases are growing on Hedera’s network.
• Major governance council includes Google, IBM, and LG.
• High throughput and energy-efficient consensus attract enterprise developers.
• Latest testnet upgrade (v0.64) delivered stability improvements in under 40 minutes.

All of this makes HBAR a strong candidate for retail exposure, especially through Robinhood’s 25M+ monthly users.

Social Buzz and Analyst Reactions

On X (formerly Twitter), the crypto community quickly reacted:

• @RealAllinCrypto: “Retail onboarding via Robinhood is a massive unlock for HBAR.”
• @TheDustyBC: “More access = more demand. HBAR could finally break out.”

Analysts like Javon Marks predict a potential 80% rally to $0.504, citing momentum and technical strength. Platforms like DigitalCoinPrice are forecasting $0.33 by year-end, while long-term bullish scenarios push targets as high as $1.41 if RWA adoption scales.

Hedera’s Edge in the Crypto Landscape

Hedera stands apart due to:

• Hashgraph consensus (not traditional blockchain), enabling finality in seconds
• Strong enterprise focus, supporting compliance and security
• Low carbon footprint, ideal for ESG-driven use cases
• Stable governance, reducing uncertainty in volatile markets

HBAR has become a prime candidate for stablecoin issuance, enterprise apps, and tokenized supply chains, making Robinhood’s addition more than just symbolic.

Did You Know?

Hedera’s governing council isn’t just global—it’s capped at 39 members, ensuring decentralization across industries and geographies. Members serve fixed terms with equal voting rights, unlike most foundations controlled by a few insiders.
