HOOD Tests 3-Year Highs

testing levels above $34 per share. For the company listed on Nasdaq under the

major cryptocurrency firms to
launch the Global Dollar Network, marking a significant expansion of its
digital asset strategy. This initiative, involving industry leaders such as

currently dominated by Tether and USD Coin.

will introduce USDG, a regulated stablecoin issued by Paxos in Singapore, with
DBS Bank managing the reserve assets. This move represents Robinhood’s most
ambitious crypto-related venture since introducing cryptocurrency trading to
its platform.
