Users must have an active Robinhood Crypto account to claim the reward, which will be available via notifications within a week of the countdown ending. Unredeemed rewards expire after 30 days.
The trading platform requires recipients to maintain the reward value in their Robinhood account for at least one year, with the amount traceable through account history and bank statements.
While the exact nature of the “New Year’s surprise” remains unknown, social media posts suggest it may involve Bitcoin or other digital assets. Users must have the latest version of the Robinhood app and an established crypto wallet to participate.
Eligible users who miss the first notification can still claim their reward via the platform’s reward center, although the one-year holding requirement still applies.
