Robinhood launched its own blockchain in July 2026, an Ethereum layer 2 where tokenized stocks trade around the clock and plug into DeFi as collateral. This guide explains what Robinhood Chain actually is, how it works under the hood, what Stock Tokens are and who can use them, how the chain differs from Base and the other corporate networks, and what it means for users, builders, and the industry’s biggest open questions. On July 1, 2026, one of the largest retail brokers in the United States switched on its own blockchain. Robinhood Chain launched its public mainnet at a London keynote, carrying 95 tokenized stocks that trade 24 hours a day, a suite of DeFi protocols live from day one, and access wired directly into the Robinhood Wallet used across 120 countries. Within a week the chain had processed roughly 4 million transactions, gathered over $240 million in deposits, and produced a la

The post Robinhood Chain scams are already costing users dearly appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Robinhood (Nasdaq:HOOD) launched the public mainnet of its new blockchain on July 1, and unfortunately, tons of people are already losing money trading its coins. Bad actors are using a variety of scam contracts, memecoin rug-pulls, phishing links, and garden variety theft, leading to complaints of loss flooding onto social media. Relay Protocol warned about scam tokens on the new Robinhood Chain: “If you bought one, the funds you spent are unfortunately gone.” In this example, scam contracts are accepting a token swap, briefly crediting the buyer’s wallet yet immediately transferring the tokens back to the deployer’s wallet. In other words, users unwittingly purchased tokens for someone else. Another trader alleged that Robinhood Wallet’s default sell screen auto-populated a Robinhood Chain scam coin called USER. Unless someone modified that default, the position would vaporize. “$600
The post Arbitrum (ARB) Price Prediction 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030-2050 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bullish ARB price prediction for 2026 ranges from $0.25 to $0.35. ARB could hit $0.20 in 2026 with Robinhood Chain fee-sharing confirmed and March 2027 vesting completion removing monthly unlock pressure. The bearish ARB price prediction for 2026 is $0.07. Arbitrum hit an all-time low of $0.07067 in June 2026, down 97% from its $2.40 peak, while securing $18 billion in TVL across 100+ live Orbit chains including Robinhood’s new Layer 2. On July 9, Offchain Labs co-founder Steven Goldfeder announced 10% of fees from every Orbit chain plus 100% of Arbitrum One fees flow back to ARB tokenholders, sending the token up 13%. That gap between network performance and token price is the entire ARB story, and this price prediction covers whether the fee-sharing model finally closes it through 2050. What Is Arbitrum (ARB)? Arbitrum is Ethereum’s largest Layer-2 scaling solution, built b
The post Founders Debate Ethereum L2 Value After Robinhood Chain Launch appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Ethereum L2 debate returns as Robinhood launches an ETH-denominated Layer-2 network. Founders debate whether Layer-2s strengthen Ethereum or shift activity from its base layer. Leighton Cusack said Ethereum’s value comes from ETH adoption, liquidity, and asset issuance. The role of Ethereum in the Layer-2 ecosystem is back in focus after the launch of Robinhood’s Ethereum-denominated Layer-2 network. World Network co-founder Leighton Cusack argued that recent bullish developments are being framed as negatives because of weak market sentiment. Cusack said Ethereum has been “so abused for the last two years” that even positive news, like Robinhood launching an ETH-denominated L2, is being portrayed negatively. “Narratives follow price,” he added. L2s and Ethereum’s Value Capture In response, Multicoin Capital managing partner Kyle Samani repeated his long-held view that Layer-2
