>Source? Not a single investigation other than the word of Robinhood CEO

Why the downvotes? Just pointing out a fact, I’m not supporting any conspiracies.

Here’s an excerpt from the linked article:

> The company also said it is under investigation by a series of regulators, state attorneys general, the SEC, and the U.S. Department of Justice in proceedings associated with the trading restrictions; the company said its CEO Vladimir Tenev has also had his cell phone seized by federal attorneys.
