The WonderFi team including Coinsquare and Bitbuy, is now part of Robinhood and gives the company a direct path into the regulated Canadian crypto market through WonderFi’s licenses, platforms, and existing customer base. As part of the transition, Robinhood is gradually migrating eligible WonderFi customers onto the Robinhood Canada platform, with Bitbuy and Coinsquare accounts moving to read-only mode after migration while customers retain access to past transactions and tax documents for a period of time.
