Robinhood Just Launched a New Blockchain. Here's Why Investors Should Care.

Robinhood launched Robinhood Chain, a Layer-2 Ethereum network enabling 24/7 trading of tokenized U.S. stocks across 120+ countries. Built on Arbitrum technology, the platform is designed as 'AI-native' to support autonomous trading agents. The move positions Robinhood as a major new competitor in crypto, with potential benefits for Arbitrum through fee-sharing arrangements and validation for Ethereum and Solana's blockchain strategies.
