  If you don't want to deposit cash into Robinhood, you can consider using a bank transfer to fund your account. This option allows you to transfer money from your bank account directly to your Robinhood account. It may take a few business days for the transfer to complete, but once the funds are in your Robinhood account, you can use them to buy cryptocurrencies.

  If you have a friend or family member who already has cryptocurrencies, you can ask them to send some to your Robinhood account.
