The decentralization in crypto is both a blessing and disgusting as it opens up wide opportunities for decentralized applications, but it also poses the risk of being troublesome.
In the past 24 hours, the Robinhood (HOOD) token is trending with its price surging over 50% out of nowhere. For newcomers, this token looks like the official crypto asset from the popular trading app Robinhood but it’s NOT.
Is HOOD Token Official?
For the clear answer, NO. The HOOD token is not officially associated with the Robinhood company. The ticker symbol “HOOD” refers to the publicly traded stock of Robinhood Markets, Inc., but there is no official HOOD cryptocurrency issued by the company.
