How will the new wallet work? Robinhood will add support for most cryptocurrencies. A separate address will be created for each coin, but they will be in the same application. Robinhood will also add additional security features, including multi-factor authentication. In addition to the wallet's usual features, the users have asked for new educational articles about cryptocurrency to be added.

Will the wallet support SHIB? The Shiba Inu community wants Robinhood to add its coin to the list of tradable assets. The users have collected over 500 000 signatures on Change.org in support of SHIB. While Robinhood is testing Dogecoin, perhaps the platform will add Shiba Inu after it.
