Robinhood’s own Ethereum layer 2, built for tokenized stocks rather than for meme coins. Robinhood Chain went live on mainnet on 1 July 2026. It is an Arbitrum chain settling to Ethereum, with ETH for gas, and its reason to exist is tokenized equities: Robinhood issues stock and ETF tokens on it so they can trade around the clock rather than only during market hours. That makes it the clearest example so far of a traditional broker running its own chain.

What Robinhood Chain is for
Robinhood Chain went live on mainnet on 1 July 2026. It is an Arbitrum chain settling to Ethereum, with ETH for gas, and its reason to exist is tokenized equities: Robinhood issues stock and ETF tokens on it so they can trade around the clock rather than only during market hours. That makes it the clearest example so far of a traditional broker running its own chain.
Because Robinhood Chain settles to Ethereum, your funds ultimately depend on Ethereum security plus the correctness of the rollup itself. That is a genuinely strong position, and it is not identical to holding on the base chain.

Wallets that support it
What to be aware of
- Most layer 2s currently run a single sequencer operated by one company, which can in principle reorder or delay transactions.
- Upgrade keys are often held by a small multisig, meaning the rules can change.
- Withdrawing through an official optimistic rollup bridge takes about seven days by design.
- Crypto assets are volatile. Drawdowns of seventy percent or more have happened on every network in this list, including the largest.
- Sending to an address on the wrong network can lose funds permanently. Always send a small test amount first.
