Robinhood Gives $2.5 Million in Bitcoin to Gold Members Who Participate in New Year Countdown

Robinhood is giving away $2.5 million worth of Bitcoin to Gold members who participate in the New Year's countdown. Yesterday, Robinhood revealed in a post on X that it plans to distribute crypto rewards to eligible users who visit the platform's countdown screen at 9:30 am Beijing time on January 1. Users must have an active Robinhood Crypto account to claim the reward, which will be provided via notification within a week after the countdown ends. Unclaimed rewards will expire after 30 days. The platform requires recipients to keep the reward value in their Robinhood account for at least one year. While the specific nature of the "New Year's surprise" remains undisclosed, social media posts suggest that it may involve Bitcoin or other digital assets. Users need to have the latest version of the Robinhood app and an established crypto wallet to participate.
