Robinhood’s European Futures Push Follows EU’s Unified Crypto Tax and MiCA Regulation
Robinhood’s venture into European futures markets follows a continent-wide rollout of unified DAC8 (Directive on Administrative Cooperation on tax transparency for crypto-assets) and the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation framework, amid a clamour for diversification and exposure among corporate investors and growing number of cryptocurrency users in Europe.
As part of the change anticipated in the coming year, crypto exchanges serving EU customers will be required to file detailed reports on their users’ activities to the national tax authorities. The data subject to reporting under the official include user bio data, tax identification numbers and on-chain wallet addresses.
Tenev said the global expansion drive will continue into 2026 as Robinhood integrates its trading products, tokenization efforts, and future Layer-2 network into its unified international platform.
