Robinhood Unveils Its Own Blockchain for Regulated Assets
R Robinhood Chain is a permissionless Layer-2 blockchain built on the Arbitrum stack, specifically designed for modern financial services. It serves as Robinhood's dedicated settlement network for tokenized stocks, stablecoins, and DeFi protocols.
The chain focuses on real-world assets, especially tokenized equities known as Stock Tokens that track listed companies such as NVIDIA, Alphabet, and Apple. These tokens follow an ERC-20-compatible interface, making them easy to integrate into wallets, DeFi applications, and risk-management tools.
R Robinhood Chain combines high throughput, low fees, and predictable transaction ordering to create a reliable environment for both retail and institutional users. The sequencer enforces compliance screening, excluding sanctioned addresses while keeping standard read operations fully accessible.
