What Is Robinhood Chain? Mainnet, RPC & Token Creation (2026)
Robinhood Chain mainnet explained: chain ID 4663, ETH gas, wallet setup, bridge timing and how to create an ERC-20. Checked September 6, 2026.

If you searched “what is Robinhood Chain,” start by separating the blockchain, the Robinhood brokerage and assets issued on the chain. Deploying an ERC-20 creates an on-chain contract. It does not secure a listing in Robinhood's brokerage app or make your token an official Robinhood asset.
Is Robinhood Chain mainnet live?
Yes. Robinhood's July 1, 2026 mainnet announcement describes the public launch and Uniswap's role in its liquidity ecosystem. The company's July 29 earnings release also confirms the launch. An article describing only the February testnet is missing that milestone.
We also queried the public mainnet RPC on September 6. That read returned chain ID 4663, block 56,303,423 and a suggested gas price of 0.367646 gwei. The returned block timestamp was 2026-09-06 21:36:04 UTC. This is a dated network observation, not a deployment quote or a throughput benchmark.
Download the RPC response snapshot. It records eth_chainId, eth_blockNumber, eth_gasPrice and eth_getBlockByNumber. These read-only calls do not connect a wallet, sign a transaction or spend ETH.
How does Robinhood Chain work?
Robinhood's developer overview describes a permissionless, EVM-compatible L2 built on Arbitrum Dedicated Blockchains. Solidity tooling and Ethereum-style wallets can connect to it. ETH pays network gas; developers can deploy their own contracts. Its focus on financial assets does not limit every third-party token to that use case.
The operational consequence is straightforward: a Solana SPL mint cannot be pasted into an ERC-20 creator and become the same asset. Choose the chain and token standard before configuring a supply or distributing a contract address.
Robinhood Chain network settings
Use the official connection documentation to confirm the values when adding a custom network:
| Setting | Mainnet | Testnet |
|---|---|---|
| Chain ID | 4663 | 46630 |
| Gas currency | ETH | Test ETH |
| Public RPC | https://rpc.mainnet.chain.robinhood.com | https://rpc.testnet.chain.robinhood.com |
| Explorer | Mainnet Blockscout | Testnet explorer |
The public RPC is rate-limited. For an application or indexer, the docs list dedicated infrastructure providers. Do not publish an RPC URL containing your private provider key in a blog, screenshot or shared support ticket.
To add mainnet in an EVM wallet such as MetaMask:
- Open the wallet's custom-network settings.
- Enter the mainnet RPC, 4663, and ETH from the table.
- Save and switch to that network.
- Check that your balance is on Robinhood Chain before starting a deployment.
The same wallet address can exist on multiple EVM networks. Seeing an ETH balance on Ethereum does not mean you have spending funds on Robinhood Chain.
How do you fund a Robinhood Chain wallet?
The official bridge guide lists the canonical Arbitrum bridge and partner routes. Its indicative timing is around 10 minutes for a canonical deposit. A canonical withdrawal back to Ethereum has a seven-day challenge period and a separate L1 claim transaction. Alternative routes have different costs, support and timing.
For a step-by-step funding workflow, use how to bridge ETH to Robinhood Chain. Keep enough ETH on the destination chain for deployment and subsequent operations. Bridging a different asset without destination gas can leave you with a token balance you cannot yet use.
How fast are confirmations?
A fast wallet receipt and final Ethereum settlement describe different stages. Robinhood's transaction-finality documentation distinguishes sub-second soft confirmation, posting to Ethereum after minutes, and Ethereum finality around 13 minutes after posting. These are typical times, not deadlines.
This is why a “100 ms block time” headline should not become “irreversible in 100 ms” in a token-creation guide. The confirmation level matters when another action depends on the transaction. Bridge withdrawal waiting periods are a separate concept again.
Can you create a token on Robinhood Chain?
Yes. Alchemii's Robinhood Chain token creator configures an ERC-20 and submits the deployment through your wallet. Decide the name, symbol, supply and optional contract features, review the displayed service fee and network estimate, then confirm. Our creation tutorial covers the form; the cost breakdown handles budgeting.
Creation gives you a token contract and initial supply. A liquidity pool is a separate operation with separate deposits. Token issuance, a funded market and visibility in trading apps are three distinct milestones. Keep the contract address available so readers can verify which asset you mean.
Trading apps are their own milestone with their own rules. The fomo app, for instance, lists Robinhood Chain among its supported chains but funds it with USDG rather than USDC, converting the deposit into a Solana USDC cash balance — the ability to trade a token there does not imply that token is supported for deposits. See what the FOMO app is for its fee tiers and verification requirements.
What this page does and does not establish
The September 6 checks establish current network configuration and a successful public RPC read. They do not establish that every project on the network is trustworthy or that a new token will attract buyers. We replaced old cross-chain rankings and August gas estimates with a reproducible snapshot, because those older figures were not a current launch budget.
Robinhood-branded Stock Tokens also have their own product terms and availability. A permissionless chain does not remove those product restrictions, and creating an ERC-20 does not create a stock-backed instrument. Our creator issues your project's token; it does not apply for brokerage distribution.

Frequently asked questions
What is Robinhood Chain?
It is a permissionless Ethereum Layer 2 using Arbitrum technology. Public mainnet launched July 1, 2026; the network supports EVM contracts.
What is the Robinhood Chain ID?
Mainnet uses 4663. Testnet uses 46630. Both display ETH as the gas currency, but testnet funds cannot pay for a mainnet deployment.
Do I need ETH on Robinhood Chain to create a token?
Yes. ETH on the destination network pays gas and the displayed creation fee. An Ethereum-mainnet balance alone does not fund a Robinhood Chain transaction.
Does creating an ERC-20 list it on the Robinhood app?
No. Contract deployment is separate from brokerage listing, liquidity and discovery in trading apps.
Create your token on Robinhood Chain
Set your ERC-20 name, symbol and supply, then review the options and fee in the creator. Confirm deployment in your wallet. Add a liquidity pool separately when you are ready to open trading.
