About the project

What Robinhood Chain is

Robinhood Chain is a permissionless, Ethereum-compatible Layer-2 blockchain built on Arbitrum's technology. It is designed to bring financial instruments such as tokenized equities, ETFs, and DeFi products onto a blockchain with faster settlement times and potentially 24/7 trading.

The network integrates with Robinhood's existing brokerage infrastructure and offers self-custody through the Robinhood Wallet. Infrastructure partners including Alchemy, Chainlink, LayerZero, Allium, and TRM provide data feeds, interoperability, and developer support.

How to participate

You can engage with Robinhood Chain through multiple routes. The testnet, which launched in February 2026, lets you trade and provide liquidity using test tokens. You can also participate in the mainnet, which launched in July 2026, by interacting with ecosystem protocols like Lighter, Arcus, Uniswap, and others. This activity builds your wallet statistics and increases active days.

Arkada Quests reward you for on-chain actions with points, multipliers, and chances to win ETH and project tokens. Each quest tracks your transaction count and active days, and completing quests earns you points and spins on a prize wheel.

What it takes

The estimated cost is about $11 and the time is around 45 minutes for the listed activities. You need a cryptocurrency wallet and test tokens, which are available from faucets during testnet participation. For mainnet activities, deposits and trades may be required to participate in some protocols.

These activities suit people comfortable with wallets, trading interfaces, and blockchain networks. No prior experience with Robinhood's brokerage is required.

What to know

Rewards are not guaranteed and depend on the rules set by individual ecosystem projects. The team has not announced the details of an airdrop. Participation in testnet activities may offer advantages when mainnet products launch, but this is not promised.
