#Robinhood just launched the public testnet for Robinhood Chain

It’s a financial grade Ethereum Layer 2 built on Arbitrum, focused on tokenized real world assets and bringing financial services onchain with reliability, security, and compliance in mind.

Developers can now connect to the testnet using standard Ethereum tooling, with early infrastructure support from partners like Alchemy, Allium, Chainlink, LayerZero, and TRM.

The network supports seamless bridging, self custody, direct testing with Robinhood Wallet, and testnet only assets including stock tokens for integration testing.

Mainnet is expected later this year. The bigger picture is tapping into Ethereum’s DeFi liquidity while building institutional-grade tokenization infrastructure under the Robinhood brand.
