Robinhood Chain Guide: Memecoins and Stock Tokens
Robinhood Chain is an Ethereum layer 2 built on Arbitrum's Orbit stack. Its public mainnet opened on July 1, 2026, it uses ETH for gas, and its chain ID is 4663. Two things trade there at scale: memecoins from launchpads, and Robinhood's tokenized stocks. This page explains the basics and links to a detailed guide on each part.
Robinhood Chain started as an announcement at a Cannes event in June 2025, when the company switched on stock tokens for users in the EU and said it would build its own chain. The public testnet followed on February 10, 2026 and the public mainnet on July 1, 2026. Within two weeks, reports ranked it among the top chains by DEX volume. Most of that early volume came from memecoins, not stocks. This hub is the starting point for both sides.

What people trade on it
Memecoins. In the first weeks, reporting put memecoins at roughly 85% of DEX volume, with tokenized real-world assets near 1%. The scene began with CASHCAT and the Noxa launchpad and later moved to Pons. The story is in the CASHCAT and Noxa story and the memecoin guide.
Stock tokens. Robinhood issues ERC-20 tokens that follow the price of US stocks and funds, such as Tesla and Nvidia. They are not shares. See stock tokens explained and the real-world asset guide.
