Robinhood Chain hits record daily fee revenue, boosts Arbitrum

  • Robinhood Chain generated a record $3.75 million in daily fees on Tuesday, making it the third-highest fee-generating network of the day.
  • The milestone represents the network's highest daily fee revenue since its public mainnet launch on July 1.
  • Robinhood Chain also allocates 10% of revenue fees to the broader Arbitrum ecosystem.

Robinhood Chain generated a record $3.75 million in daily fees on Tuesday, making it the third-highest of the day behind Uniswap (UNI) and Pons, according to data from DeFiLlama.

The figure marked the network's fourth consecutive day of record daily fee revenue and its highest single-day total since launching its mainnet on July 1.

Robinhood Chain generates revenue for Arbitrum

The network also generates revenue for Arbitrum. Under the Arbitrum Expansion Program, Robinhood Chain allocates 10% of its fees to the Arbitrum ecosystem. From the allocation, 8% goes to the Arbitrum DAO treasury, while the remaining 2% goes to a developer fund.

Based on the $3.75 million generated on Tuesday, the arrangement delivered roughly $370,000 in revenue to the Arbitrum ecosystem.

By comparison, the Arbitrum network generated roughly $7,000 in daily fees during the same period, with the total fees amounting to $377,000.

Robinhood Chain’s decentralized exchange (DEX) volume also rose to a peak of roughly $1.6 billion on Tuesday, before dropping to $1.3 billion on Wednesday.

The blockchain launched on July 1 using the Arbitrum stack, with transaction settlements made to Ethereum (ETH). It also uses ETH as its gas token.

The chain is designed to support financial applications, including tokenized stocks and other real-world assets (RWA). The RWA market cap currently stands at $184 million, according to DefiLlama data. Stablecoin volume on the network has also continued on an upward trajectory, rising roughly 11% in the past week and standing at $832 million at publication time.

Before launching its dedicated network, Robinhood (HOOD) introduced tokenized versions of US stocks and ETFs, known as Stock Tokens, on Arbitrum One for eligible European customers in June 2025.

After launching the Robinhood Chain mainnet, the company moved its Stock Tokens and other on-chain financial products to the dedicated network.

The ecosystem also supports decentralized finance (DeFi) applications, including trading and lending protocols.

Robinhood Chain's latest record fee reflects increased on-chain activity, although daily fees alone do not necessarily indicate long-term adoption or sustained demand.
