Today we're joined by Tom Wan, Head of Data at Entropy Advisors, and Ali, Data at Entropy Advisors to break down one of crypto's biggest infrastructure launches of the year: Robinhood Chain.

We dive into why Robinhood chose Arbitrum as its blockchain infrastructure, how the partnership actually works behind the scenes, and what this means for the future of tokenized real-world assets. We also explore early onchain data, blob usage, revenue sharing, Ethereum economics, and whether Robinhood could become the everything-app for finance.

We discuss:

•  Why Robinhood launched its own blockchain 
•  Robinhood's partnership with Arbitrum explained 
•  Blockchain infrastructure vs distribution 
•  Tokenized RWAs and Robinhood's vision 
•  Early Robinhood Chain adoption metrics 
•  Memecoins vs real-world assets 
•  Robinhood app UX and chain abstraction 
•  Blob usage and Ethereum settlement 
•  Robinhood Chain revenue sharing 
•  Ethereum vs Arbitrum economics 
•  The future of tokenized finance 
•  What's next for Robinhood Chain 

And much more—enjoy!
