Robinhood Head of Crypto explains why they’re building an L2 on Ethereum “We wanted the decentralization and security of Ethereum. We also wanted the liquidity available in the EVM space. So that’s why we decided to do an L2 — that way we can customize everything we want to do to really make The Robinhood Chain the best real world asset chain, and at the same time, have all the benefits of Ethereum.” Source: Anthony Pompliano 🌪

Robinhood Chain could become the next billion-dollar meme ecosystem. The reason is simple Every successful ecosystem in crypto was never built around a single meme coin pumping. It was built around the users, attention, and ecosystem effects that memes created. $BRETT once reached a $2B market cap and became one of the most iconic memes in the Base ecosystem. It helped Base attract massive attention, users, and liquidity. Solana followed a similar path. Over the past few years, meme coins became one of Solana’s strongest user acquisition channels. further proved that speculation can be transformed into massive on-chain user growth. Almost every successful ecosystem has gone through a meme-driven growth phase. And Robinhood Chain happens to have several unique advantages: First, it has Robinhood’s distribution power with tens of millions of traditional finance users. Second, Robinhood is building around RWA and tokenized stocks, which requires bringing more users on-chain. Third, memes could become the lowest-friction entry point connecting traditional finance users with the crypto world. Robinhood’s CEO said: “While we’re building Robinhood Chain to be the best chain for RWA… it works great for memes too.” Many people see this as just a casual comment. But I think it reveals Robinhood’s deeper product strategy. Because RWA is unlikely to be the reason users enter crypto for the first time. Very few people will download a wallet and learn how bridges work just to buy a tokenized stock. But a viral meme can become the first interaction that brings users on-chain. Once users enter the ecosystem, they can gradually explore stablecoins, RWA, tokenized stocks, and other on-chain products. If Robinhood can replicate the Base and Solana playbook, Robinhood Chain could become the catalyst for the next major meme wave in crypto.

Robinhood didn’t want to be “alone on a private island” they think they’ll gain more users as an Ethereum L2 than an L1. if even Robinhood thinks that, nobody should build an L1. “We want to recreate the entire financial system onchain. We need everyone to be able to come to our island.” they chose Ethereum as the place to recreate the financial system because: → the most decentralized & secure → access to the deepest liquidity & users “If we really want the stock market onchain, we need to have this liquidity. It’s not going to be possible on a closed chain with like 20 different hoops before you can bridge.” Robinhood Chain is in private testnet, an Ethereum L2 built on the Arbitrum stack. they’ve already tokenized 1,000+ stocks.

We've got to electrify everything. This can't be another Groundhog Day - it has to be the wake-up call. Our CEO Greg Jackson was on BBC Newsnight, repeating exactly what he said during the last gas crisis three-ish years ago. When Britain depends on gas it doesn't have, your bill pays the difference. Different crisis, same dependency.

Solana's revenue is twofold. People only talk about half of it, but retail will trade both Memes: Pumpfun is the memecoin casino, which brings attention and volumes to the chain Then you have productive assets like MetaDAO, perps onchain , etc

Why did CME sue its own regulator, the CFTC, over crypto perps: "A few weeks ago I told you that CME was actually suing the CFTC, their own regulator, over allowing perpetual futures, that crypto native product, to exist. They said these are not the right kind of contracts, that people shouldn't be able to trade perpetual futures, that they don't have a settlement date, all of these reasons" "Well, now you can see the reason. They're trying to slow it down so they can do it not on crypto rails and capture the value themselves" "The battle over what all of these entities can do and can't do is going to rage on. But it's a story of the incumbents trying to slow down crypto rails so they can catch up and offer the products themselves"

"It's a bit ridiculous that we are blocking it on this idea that stablecoins should not generate yield for customers" Johann Kerbrat, SVP and GM of International and Crypto at Robinhood, on the stablecoin yield fight holding up the Clarity Act "I think this Clarity Act is really important. A lot of customers want the FDIC insurance, they want to be able to think that their money is safe, so they're already using their banking accounts. They're not trying to get the highest yield possible, otherwise they would use a feature like the one we launched" "At the end of the day we are penalizing people that want to utilize crypto and blockchain technology, because for stablecoins it's a lot easier to send, a lot easier to transfer 24/7" "It's not really fair that we are penalizing those customers"

But he stressed that this brings no comfort to users who may have lost "ALL their ADA." "It hurts them whenever they lose anything," the ADA founder said.

$HOOD My thoughts on the Robinhood election betting market news today: - Kalshi is proving the demand for this market is huge - I don't think $HOOD cares about the election but rather using this event as a test to see if they can launch a larger predictions market - The rate of innovation here is just incredible with this coming out 2 weeks after futures, index options, and the new desktop app - The people critiquing this move largely are missing the innovation in betting markets that's happening right now, EVERYTHING about the elections this cycle have changed in regards to media/polling because of these prediction markets and it seems that major events outside of the election will also have bids and asks for people who want to participate in it -- as a result, Robinhood may capitalize on that market

$HOOD ROBINHOOD IS GOING AFTER THE ENTIRE FINANCIAL SERVICES ECOSYSTEM. CEO Vlad Tenev yesterday discussed the opportunity to introduce startup investing for Robinhood users. I think it is a FANTASTIC idea and based on how Vlad talks about it below, you can tell he has already put serious thought into this. Essentially, when startup employees want liquidity, they could use a platform like Robinhood to offload their shares to retail investors. Currently, the secondary markets are only available to people who have connections and it's not easy to get shares of Discord, Stripe, OpenAI, Anduril, etc. without having those connections. Yet, there is plenty of liquidity since those employees that have been there since series A may want to take some chips off the table in the series C round. For retail, getting in at series C is still way better than waiting till IPO, so there's a real marketplace that could be created via Robinhood and it would be, in my opinion, one of the LARGEST secondary markets for startup companies on the planet. Vlad says below in the clip, "How is it easier to buy a memecoin than to get allocation to SpaceX?!" $HOOD is simply thinking far beyond everyone else when it comes to innovating and really bringing value to their users with new opportunities for shareholders that can open brand new lines of businesses for Robinhood and continue to diversify the business. Don't. Bet. Against. Vlad.
