Total revenue climbed 15% to $1.07 billion, while transaction-based revenue rose 7% year over year to $623 million. However, transaction revenue fell 20% from the previous quarter, and crypto remained a drag. Crypto trading revenue dropped 47% to $134 million as digital asset prices weakened.<\/p>\n<p>Prediction markets helped offset some of that pressure. Event contracts traded hit a record 8.8 billion in the quarter, giving Robinhood another growth line beyond stocks, options and crypto. The company has also been building into credit cards, banking, venture capital access and other financial products.<\/p>\n<p>Subscriptions added another lift. Robinhood Gold revenue rose 32%, while Gold subscribers climbed 36% to 4.3 million. Other revenue rose 57% to $85 million, mainly from subscription growth. Net interest revenue also increased 24% to $359 million.<\/p>\n<p>Operating expenses rose 18% to $656 million, driven by higher marketing and growth investment.
