EXCLUSIVE: Robinhood is going to pay 7% on dollars to 27.7 million customers. In this Interview Johann Kerbrat, their SVP of Crypto explains how it all works. Robinhood Earn lives inside the main investing app. You can buy the USDG stablecoin in a few taps, and it gets deployed into vaults built with Morpho and Steakhouse, and the target yield is roughly 7%. Where does 7% come from? Market makers and liquidity providers pay it. These are traders who need USDG liquidity to run spot and perps trading. Your deposit is funding someone else's 50x leverage, and you're the one getting paid for it. Assuming you get paid back. Which, as we've seen, doesn't always work in DeFi with hacks and smart contract risk. But Robinhood has done something extra to make this retail-grade. Robinhood's answer is an insurance program with Lloyd's of London and Relm covering smart contract and vault failure. He says it's one of the largest ever built for a crypto product. Earn was one of 12 announcements; some others that caught my eye: Stock tokens in 120+ countries, backed 1:1 by real equities. You can withdraw them to a self-custody wallet and post them as collateral. Borrowing against a stock portfolio used to be a private banking perk; now it's a smart contract. Robinhood Chain went to public mainnet after 200 million transactions on testnet. Perps on stocks, crypto, and commodities at 20 to 50x leverage, bringing an entire new asset class to the mainstream. Robinhood is all in on DeFi. DeFi protocols spent a decade fighting for users. Robinhood just made a Morpho vault look like a savings account, in front of 27.7m funded customers.
