Robinhood has added ASTER (ASTR), XPL, and VIRTUAL to its trading platform, continuing its push to expand digital asset access for retail investors. The new listings are now live on Robinhood Crypto, allowing users to buy, sell, and hold the tokens directly through the app.
The move comes as Robinhood continues to diversify beyond top-tier cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, offering exposure to emerging blockchain projects gaining traction in Web3 and AI‑integrated ecosystems.

Strengthening Retail Access to Emerging Tokens
With these additions, Robinhood broadens its catalog to include tokens tied to next‑generation digital infrastructure. ASTER, for instance, is known for its scalable Layer‑1 network focused on decentralized applications, while VIRTUAL and XPL are gaining recognition in digital identity and cross‑chain utility sectors.
This rollout aligns with the platform’s broader goal of bridging traditional investing with the evolving crypto economy, giving users access to trending digital assets without relying on external wallets or exchanges.
As Robinhood expands its crypto footprint across the U.S. and Europe, the inclusion of these tokens underscores the company’s commitment to offering diversified, regulated access to the fastest‑growing corners of the digital asset market.
