I only made it through the first page of 560 comments, this is prolly the most pertinent quote, from a Scott Galloway article.
Quote:
In contrast to rivals such as Charles Schwab that encourage investing, Robinhood gamifies trading. Gambling addiction doesn't depend on green felt and free drinks; today, boredom and a smartphone is enough.
Why would they do that? At Robinhood, users aren't customers, they're products. More specifically, their trades are the product, which Robinhood sells to market makers.
