The testnet is live for developers to build infrastructure on Robinhood Chain, a financial-grade Ethereum Layer 2 built on Arbitrum, designed to support real-world assets. We’re launching the public testnet for Robinhood Chain, an Ethereum Layer 2 built on Arbitrum. Our goal is to accelerate the development of onchain financial services—starting with tokenized real-world and digital assets. Developers can now start building with the core foundation of Robinhood Chain and explore what’s possible ahead of a future mainnet launch.
The testnet will support early experimentation, identify potential issues, improve network stability, and build a foundation for developers ahead of the upcoming mainnet launch. Development focus Backed by Robinhood’s infrastructure and experience and built on Arbitrum technology, Robinhood Chain was developed with reliability, security, and compliance in mind. It supports seamless bridging and self-custody, with the scalability and customizability needed to build financial-grade decentralized products—including tokenized asset platforms, lending platforms, and perpetual futures exchanges. In the coming months, developers building on Robinhood Chain will gain access to testnet-only assets, including Stock Tokens, to be used for integration testing.
Direct testing with Robinhood Wallet. A familiar developer environment on Ethereum and the Arbitrum ecosystem. “With Arbitrum’s developer-friendly technology, Robinhood Chain is well-positioned to help the industry deliver the next chapter of tokenization and permissionless financial services,” said Steven Goldfeder, Co-Founder and CEO of Offchain Labs. “Working alongside the Robinhood team, we are excited to help build the next stage of finance.”
