Robinhood's chain is clearing nearly 10 million transactions a day

750 Million Transactions and Counting

@RobinhoodCrypto's Robinhood Chain has crossed 756 million transactions and 23 million addresses since its public mainnet went live on July 1, with daily transaction volume running close to 9.8 million. The figures, visible on the chain's block explorer, point to sustained throughput rather than a one-time launch spike.

Robinhood Chain launched on public mainnet on July 1, 2026, as a dedicated Arbitrum chain settling to Ethereum, after a testnet that processed more than 200 million transactions. The network is an Ethereum L2 built on the Arbitrum tech stack, uses ETH for gas, and runs 100-millisecond block times. Gas costs are kept below a cent per transaction, making it one of the cheaper execution environments available to retail users today.

Uniswap Finds Its Second-Biggest Home

The chain runs 100-millisecond block times, settles to Ethereum for security, and shipped with @Uniswap and Chainlink integrated from day one. That early partnership has paid off. By late July, the chain had already become the second-largest Uniswap venue by spot activity, trailing only Ethereum mainnet.

Across all activity, Uniswap has facilitated roughly $12.8 billion on the chain over the past month, making Robinhood Chain its second-largest market behind Ethereum. The concentration of volume through a single DEX is striking. Uniswap's v3 and v4 deployments handle somewhere near 77% of volume over a rolling week and closer to 86% across 30 days, spiking toward 98% on the chain's record sessions.

Robinhood Chain hit $3 billion in daily DEX volume on September 4, pushing Uniswap's UNI burn to a record $1.15 million, with Uniswap handling as much as 98% of it. Cumulative DEX volume on the chain passed $47 billion in under two months, a total most Layer 2s take years to build.

The Arbitrum-based chain focuses on tokenized stocks, real-world assets (RWAs), and on-chain financial services. According to Galaxy, roughly four-fifths of Robinhood Chain's DEX volume has come from memecoins, though tokenized equity volume has also been climbing. Uniswap on Robinhood Chain reached an all-time high of approximately $130 million in daily stock token trading volume, representing roughly a 10x increase over the past month.

One near-term factor to watch: a 90-day free-gas subsidy ends in late September 2026, marking the first real test of whether the volume holds.
