Robinhood Chain: what the network is and how to start
Robinhood Chain is an Ethereum Layer 2 built by Robinhood on the Arbitrum platform. Transaction data is posted to Ethereum as blobs, gas is paid in ETH, and the public mainnet has been live since 1 July 2026 after a public testnet that opened on 10 February 2026.
What this network is
Robinhood positions the chain around tokenized stocks, lending and perpetual futures, but the network itself is permissionless: any EVM wallet can use it, and it is not tied to a Robinhood brokerage or crypto account. This page separates what any reader can do from what is closed by jurisdiction.

Who it is for
Robinhood describes the chain as built for financial services and real-world assets: Stock Tokens, lending, perpetual futures and trading through AI agents. Which of these you can actually touch depends on where you live, not on the network.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Stock Tokens | In the Robinhood Wallet in more than 120 countries, "availability varies by jurisdiction"; not offered to U.S. persons Source → |
| Who may not buy Stock Tokens | Prohibited investor jurisdictions include Russia, Belarus and Ukraine, alongside Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Sudan, South Sudan, Myanmar and Venezuela; offers are also restricted in the U.S., Canada, the UK and Switzerland Source → |
| Robinhood Earn | Lending through Morpho, rolled out to "eligible US users" Source → |
| AI-agent trading | "Agentic Accounts for crypto" for "eligible US traders", announced as coming soon Source → |
For a reader in Russia the honest summary is: the chain itself is open — a wallet, ETH, swaps on DEXes, the explorer — while Stock Tokens, Robinhood Earn and the Robinhood app are not on your path. The next block shows which exchanges will send ETH or USDG to the network right now.

Getting in and out
There are two ways to fund a wallet on Robinhood Chain: withdraw ETH or USDG from an exchange that lists the network, or bridge from Ethereum. Exchanges label the network "Robinhood" or "Robinhood Chain"; the address is the same as on Ethereum.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| About USDG | USDG is the Paxos stablecoin named in the chain docs as its stablecoin infrastructure Source → |
| Coin | Exchange | Network on the exchange | Fee | Minimum | Withdrawals | Action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ETH | OKX | ROBINHOODCHAIN | 0 | 0 | Closed | Withdraw |
| ETH | OKX | ROBINHOOD CHAIN | 0.0000019 | 0.0001 | Open | Withdraw |
| ETH | Bitget | ROBINHOOD | 0.00003962 | 0.00396133 | Closed | Withdraw |
| ETH | KuCoin | ROBINHOOD | 0.0002 | 0.0004 | Open | Withdraw |
| ETH | BingX | ROBINHOOD | 0.0006 | 0.001999 | Open | Withdraw |
| USDG | Gate.io | ROBINHOOD | 0.05 | 0.009994 | Open | Withdraw |
| USDG | KuCoin | ROBINHOOD | 0.5 | 1 | Open | Withdraw |
| USDG | BingX | ROBINHOOD | 1.5 | 5 | Open | Withdraw |
Fees are what exchanges report through their APIs and change without notice. A closed route today is not a verdict — check the date next to the table.

Wallets
Robinhood Chain is a standard EVM chain: any Ethereum wallet works once the network is added. Robinhood also ships its own self-custody app, Robinhood Wallet; its availability in app stores differs by country and we have not checked it for Russia.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| RPC URL | https://rpc.mainnet.chain.robinhood.com Source → |
| Chain ID | 4663 Source → |
| Currency symbol | ETH Source → |
| Block explorer | https://robinhoodchain.blockscout.com Source → |
| Third-party wallets | "Any EVM-compatible wallet" can connect by adding the network manually Source → |
| Robinhood Wallet | Send, receive and swap crypto, interact with dapps; "not connected to your Robinhood brokerage or crypto accounts" Source → |
We do not recommend a specific wallet and have no partner links here. Check the RPC and chain ID against docs.robinhood.com before sending funds.

Bridges
The canonical route is the Arbitrum bridge portal with Robinhood Chain as the destination: deposits from Ethereum take about ten minutes, withdrawals back to Ethereum wait out a challenge period of about seven days and need a final claim transaction. The docs also list third-party routes.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| What can be bridged | ETH and ERC-20 tokens from Ethereum Source → |
| Timing | Deposits about 10 minutes; withdrawals about 7 days (challenge period) plus a claim transaction on L1 Source → |
| Third-party routes in the docs | Stargate (LayerZero), Transporter (Chainlink CCIP), Relay, Across, LiFi / 0x Source → |
Third-party bridges are independent services. Compare a bridge quote with an exchange withdrawal from the table above; if your funds are already on an exchange, the bridge adds a step you pay for.

Claimed at launch
The left column is what Robinhood announced on mainnet day; the right column is what Yieldo saw itself on the check date. Verified means an endpoint answered, a docs page lists the deployment or an exchange reports an open route — not that we audited a contract or vouch for a venue.

What happens on the network
There is no Robinhood Chain token in the launch materials: gas is ETH, and Robinhood has announced no network token, points programme or airdrop. What people actually do on the chain today is trade on DEXes, use lending markets, trade perpetuals and launch meme coins.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Points programme | Lighter committed a pool of its LIT tokens "to the Robinhood community"; points accrue for perpetual trades. A Lighter programme, not a Robinhood token Source → |
| On meme coins | Johann Kerbrat, SVP and GM of Robinhood Crypto: "memes are an important part of crypto" (Decrypt, 8 August 2026) Source → |
| Scam warning | 23 July 2026: the CEO's X account was compromised and promoted a fake "official Robinhood chain mascot" token; Robinhood confirmed the compromise Source → |
We do not publish airdrop checklists and do not track eligibility. Any "official Robinhood Chain token" you see is a scam until robinhood.com says otherwise.
Meme coins on this chain are listed by several exchanges and appear in the fee table as ordinary withdrawals. They are speculative assets; we track them on a separate page and do not rate them.

Where to go next
Sources
Official sources first, then the builders whose own documentation confirms they run on the chain, then the people to follow for news. A handle on this page is a pointer, not proof: treat an announcement as real only when it also appears on robinhood.com.
- Vlad Tenev on X CEO
- Johann Kerbrat on X SVP and GM, Robinhood Crypto
- Arbitrum on X platform provider
Executive accounts are listed for following news, not as proof of anything: the CEO's account was hijacked in July 2026. Robinhood also runs an account named Robinhood Crypto on X; we found no link to it from robinhood.com, so it is not in the verified list.
