Robinhood Chain launched with $1.6B daily DEX volume, tokenized stocks, and AI trading capabilities, positioning the platform as a TradFi-crypto bridge.
Tech & Launches ·
Robinhood Chain has gone live with $1.6 billion in daily decentralized exchange volume, according to reports in the crypto community. The platform now offers tokenized stocks alongside decentralized finance products and AI-powered trading capabilities, with over 50 crypto assets accessible to users in the UK.
The launch represents a shift in Robinhood's positioning from a traditional brokerage toward a hybrid platform bridging traditional finance and crypto markets. The integration of on-chain equity tokens, automated trading tools, and native DEX infrastructure suggests an attempt to consolidate both retail and institutional flows across asset classes on a single blockchain-based venue.
The scale of daily volume and breadth of asset classes remain noteworthy, though details on trading fees, settlement mechanics, and custody arrangements for tokenized equities have not been disclosed. The regulatory pathway for offering tokenized stock trading in the UK and other jurisdictions remains unclear.
