Many popular investment apps for beginners, like Robinhood and Webull, continue to focus on offering crypto trading opportunities in October 2023. However, these platforms are shifting their approach towards promoting crypto Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), rather than direct cryptocurrency trading, to make investing in the burgeoning market safer for new investors. This trend reflects a broader shift within the industry as mainstream interest in cryptocurrencies grows. These apps prioritize user-friendly investment experiences and focus on indirect crypto exposure through ETFs. Prominent examples include SoFi Invest and Betterment, which offer diversified portfolios that incorporate crypto baskets alongside traditional assets.
