Robinhood (HOOD) to Acquire Canadian Crypto Firm WonderFi (WNDR)

On May 13, 2025, Robinhood Markets Inc. Announced an agreement to acquire WonderFi Technologies Inc., a Canadian crypto firm, in a cash transaction valued at approximately CA$250 million.
Robinhood, aiming to expand its international presence and crypto offerings, pursued WonderFi because it owns popular Canadian platforms Bitbuy and Coinsquare, which manage over CA$2.1 billion in assets.
Under the terms of the agreement, Robinhood will pay WonderFi shareholders 36 Canadian cents for each share, which reflects a 41% increase compared to the company’s previous closing price, while WonderFi’s management team and product offerings will remain part of Robinhood Crypto.
Robinhood processed CA$3.57 billion in crypto trading volume in fiscal 2024, a 28 percent increase, and previously made a $200 million purchase of European crypto exchange Bitstamp, signaling deeper crypto market engagement.
The acquisition is anticipated to be finalized during the latter part of 2025 and aligns with Robinhood’s goal to expand its cryptocurrency user base in Canada amid a broader industry recovery and growing regulatory approval.
