Bitcoin vs Robinhood Chain

Bitcoin is the first decentralized blockchain, secured by proof‑of‑work where miners expend SHA‑256 hash power to find valid blocks every ~10 minutes. The supply is capped at 21 million coins, with inflation halving roughly every four years—the most recent halving occurred on 20 April 2024. Upgrades like SegWit and Taproot have enabled second‑layer protocols such as the Lightning Network and emerging covenants via OP_CTV debates.

Robinhood Chain is Robinhood's permissionless Ethereum Layer‑2 built on Arbitrum's Orbit stack, with a public testnet from February 2026 and mainnet launch on July 1, 2026. It offers full EVM compatibility, 100‑millisecond blocks, ETH as the native gas token, and native ERC‑4337 account abstraction for gas sponsorship and social recovery, with BitGo and Alchemy providing custody and node infrastructure. The chain is purpose‑built for tokenized real‑world assets, hosting 24/7 Stock Tokens that track US equity prices (without ownership or voting rights) alongside DeFi venues such as Uniswap, Lighter and Morpho‑powered lending; no dedicated Robinhood Chain token is mapped, so the blockchain is imported without an associated token.
