The folks at Robinhood quickly got back to me with the following message. Happy to forward this link along to the QC team.
"Good Afternoon Robert,
Thanks for getting in touch. We appreciate your interest in Robinhood.
At this time, we don't have a publicly available API, but you're welcome to fill out this survey to request to work with us as a beta partner.
We'll reach out to you directly if we'd like to work with you, and we recommend you follow us on social media for any potential future announcements of a widely-available API.
Please feel free to respond to this email if you have any additional questions. I’m here to help!
Sincerely,
Jocelyn from Robinhood Support"

I've filled that out many times. I don't think QuantConnect can risk the time and investment in making the brokerage connection to an unofficial API. If the community sponsors it we can outsource it to a consultant to build (est $10,000-40,000) and then host the implementation on the website.

Gotcha. Thanks for letting us know. I'm not particularly a fan of Robinhood, so maybe we can instead hope for a competitor to make this possible before they do.

Last I checked, Robinhood (for crypto at least) isn't an actual exchange - just re-routes the order to a more established exchange like GDAX. It's "commission-free" but executed price is probably comparable or worse than going through the exchange yourself. Also some slippage/delays in fill times for higher frequency trading.
GDAX (Coinbase Pro, not the normal Coinbase) is pretty good for crypto and is supported on QC.
