FTX is deliberating internally how to buy the app-based brokerage, although Robinhood hasn’t received a formal takeover approach from FTX. FTX chief SBF says that he’s ‘excited’ about Robinhood’s prospects.
“We are excited about Robinhood’s business prospects and potential ways we could partner with them,” Bankman-Fried said Monday in an emailed statement. “That being said, there are no active M&A conversations with Robinhood.”
