Original Title: "Want to Capitalize on RobinhoodChain? Which Ecosystem Projects Deserve Attention?"
Original Author: KarenZ, Foresight News

As Robinhood's core "battlefield" in the Layer 2 space, Robinhood Chain is rapidly building a comprehensive ecosystem covering tokenized stocks, RWA, perpetual contracts, and spot trading.

On July 2, 2026, alongside the launch of its mainnet, Robinhood Chain also kicked off a 90-day gas fee reduction campaign covering swaps, cross-chain transfers, and Perp trading.

As of July 6, 2026, just four days after the Robinhood Chain mainnet launch, the ecosystem's TVL is still relatively low, at around $76.73 million. This article will highlight key projects and potential opportunities worth monitoring.

Arcus

Arcus is a DEX for tokenized stocks and cryptocurrencies jointly built by dYdX Labs and Robinhood Crypto, focusing on spot and perpetual contracts, facilitating peer-to-peer trading of tokenized stocks on Robinhood Chain.

When dYdX announced Arcus, it stated that a portion of Arcus tokens will be allocated to the dYdX community. The Defiant also reported that Arcus tokens will be prioritized for users who trade, stake, or validate on the dYdX platform, giving preference to existing dYdX community members at token launch.

Lighter

Lighter is a ZK-powered decentralized perpetual and spot trading platform deployed on Robinhood Chain. Robinhood Wallet users can now directly trade perpetual contracts and tokenized stocks through Lighter.

According to Bankless, Lighter has committed $11 million worth of LIT to the Robinhood community: Users earn points by trading perpetual contracts on Lighter (2x points via Robinhood Wallet, 1x points via the Lighter web app), and points can be directly redeemed for LIT (subject to Lighter's terms).

Morpho

Robinhood is gradually rolling out Robinhood Earn to eligible U.S. users, allowing them to lend the stablecoin USDG through self-custodial wallets. Robinhood expects an annualized yield of 7%.

USDG provided via Robinhood Earn is deposited into Morpho vaults and allocated across Morpho markets. Borrowers provide collateral from protocols like Spark, Ethena, and Maple to borrow USDG, and the yield comes from the interest they pay.

Rialto

Rialto emerged in collaboration with Robinhood Crypto, Offchain, and Arbitrum. It is an on-chain spot trading platform supporting asset types such as crypto assets, stocks, ETFs, and commodities.

Rialto will initially list over 90 Robinhood tokenized stocks along with major crypto assets on Robinhood Chain.

When a user places an order, Rialto requests real-time quotes from all candidate liquidity sources at that order size, including propAMMs and traditional DEX pools, then sorts them by net output after deducting network costs. The core here is propAMM. Rialto defines propAMM as an on-chain market maker that uses its own inventory and pricing logic to quote.

Arrakis

Arrakis is a non-custodial on-chain market maker protocol for token issuers, managing concentrated liquidity on DEXs through self-custodied treasuries: the issuer owns the vault and its assets, while Arrakis runs the market-making strategy within parameters set by the issuer.

In December 2022, Arrakis Finance completed a $4 million seed round via SAFT (Simple Agreement for Future Tokens), with participation from Uniswap Labs Ventures, Accel, Polygon Ventures, Robot Ventures, and others.

Meridian

Meridian is a platform within the Robinhood Chain ecosystem focused on RWA perpetual contracts and prediction markets, settling in USDe.

Notably, Meridian was previously known as Ethereal and rebranded in May 2026, shifting from a more general derivatives/trading infrastructure to a focus on RWA + prediction markets + perpetual contracts.

In November 2024, Ethereal stated that it would allocate 15% of all future Ethereal governance tokens to ENA (sENA) stakers.

Native

Native is an on-chain price discovery and execution system deployed on Robinhood Chain on July 2. Native previously supported networks such as Ethereum, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, and Base.

On July 2, Native responded to community questions stating, "There are currently no plans for a token launch, but we appreciate every supporter."
