Golden Finance reported that on July 18, according to The New York Times, Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev said in an interview that the company is running “Trump Accounts” in cooperation with the U.S. government, aiming to set up investment accounts for children born between 2025 and 2028. In response to criticisms from the outside that the Robinhood platform or its efforts are “goading” the younger generation into “gambling,” Tenev said that any form of trading should not be simply defined as gambling. He emphasized that speculation is essential in financial markets; without speculators’ forecasts of future prices, markets would lose their function. Tenev noted that Robinhood is working to move away from the “tag” of the meme-stock craze and aims to become an all-in-one financial platform covering all asset classes worldwide and financial transactions. In addition, Tenev disclosed that more than 90% of his personal net worth is held in a single Robinhood stock.
