Robinhood Chain bridge — frequently asked questions

Robinhood Chain is a public blockchain network: an Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 built with Arbitrum technology, live on mainnet since July 1, 2026. Its chain ID is 4663 and gas is paid in ETH. Transaction data is posted to Ethereum via blobs, and blocks are ordered by a single sequencer on a first-come, first-served basis. Its stated focus is onchain infrastructure for crypto and tokenized real-world assets.

No. Your Robinhood brokerage account and in-app crypto balance are custodial products run by Robinhood Markets, Inc. Robinhood Chain is a public blockchain where you hold assets in your own self-custody wallet. Bridging moves funds to a wallet address on that network; it never credits your brokerage or app balance, and nothing you bridge will appear inside the Robinhood app.

The chain ID is 4663. Wallets use it to tell networks apart, so check it when adding Robinhood Chain manually. The standard network parameters are: RPC URL https://rpc.mainnet.chain.robinhood.com, gas token ETH, block explorer robinhoodchain.blockscout.com. If a site or wallet shows a different chain ID under the same name, do not sign anything with it.

ETH. Every transaction on Robinhood Chain — a transfer, a swap, adding a token approval — costs a small amount of ETH, the same asset used for gas on Ethereum and Base. Keep some ETH at your Robinhood Chain address or you will not be able to move funds after they arrive. Native SOL or ETH bridged through this interface is delivered as ETH by default, which covers that need.

Not just by bridging. According to Robinhood's public materials, Robinhood-issued tokenized stocks are restricted by jurisdiction — they are not available in the US — and access is gated by verification through Robinhood's own infrastructure. Bridging assets onto Robinhood Chain gives you a funded self-custody wallet on the network; it does not grant access to those tokens or bypass any of those requirements.

Select the source network — Solana, Ethereum or Base — and the asset, then enter an amount. The interface fetches a live quote showing the output, the recipient, the estimated time and the network cost. Enter or confirm an EVM recipient address on Robinhood Chain, review everything, and sign in your wallet. Funds are delivered to that address, and you can follow the transaction at robinhoodchain.blockscout.com.

ETH on Robinhood Chain. Relay lists ETH and USDG as bridgeable on the network, and this interface currently delivers ETH as the output for every route. Native SOL sent through the route is converted — you receive ETH, not SOL. Stablecoins are also delivered as ETH today; USDG may become a selectable output in a future update. The quote states the output token before you sign; check it there.

Because the route converts it. Native SOL sent through this interface is delivered as ETH on Robinhood Chain by default — a conversion at the quoted rate, not the same token in a new place. The quote displayed ETH as the output token before you signed. One practical upside: ETH is the gas token on Robinhood Chain, so arriving with ETH means you can transact right away.

No. Robinhood Chain's bridgeable assets on Relay are currently ETH and USDG, and this interface delivers ETH — so USDC sent from Solana, Ethereum or Base arrives as ETH. That involves a swap, and the quote will show price impact and the minimum received. Check the output token in the quote before signing, and verify the received token's contract in the explorer afterward.

There is no fixed limit built into this interface; the live route is the practical constraint. Very small amounts can be uneconomical once fees and gas are counted — the quote makes this visible before you sign. Very large amounts can fail to return a quote when route liquidity is insufficient at that moment. If you get no quote, try a smaller amount or try again later.

Solana, Ethereum and Base are the initial source networks. The preset assets are SOL, USDC and USDT from Solana, and ETH, USDC and USDT from Ethereum and from Base. On the destination side, this interface currently delivers ETH; USDG may be added as a selectable output later. The supported-networks table on the homepage is generated from automated live quote checks and reflects the latest results.

No. Never send from a centralized exchange directly through a bridge. Exchange withdrawals come from custodial addresses you do not control, and anything a bridge returns or delivers to such an address can be lost. Withdraw to a self-custody wallet first — your own MetaMask, Rabby or similar — confirm the funds arrived, and bridge from there. The extra step costs one withdrawal fee and removes an entire class of loss.

USDG is a US dollar stablecoin. Relay lists it, alongside ETH, as bridgeable on Robinhood Chain at contract 0x5fc5360d0400a0fd4f2af552add042d716f1d168. This interface currently delivers ETH as the output; USDG may become a selectable output in a future update. If you ever receive USDG, check in the explorer that the token at your address matches that exact contract before treating the balance as settled.

For Solana sources: Phantom, Solflare and Backpack. For EVM networks — Ethereum, Base and Robinhood Chain — MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Rabby, and Robinhood Wallet via WalletConnect. Any wallet you use as the recipient must actually support Robinhood Chain or let you add it as a custom network with chain ID 4663. Phantom currently does neither, so it works as a source wallet from Solana but not as a destination.

No. Phantom currently does not display Robinhood Chain and does not allow adding custom networks, according to its help center. Funds delivered to your address on Robinhood Chain still exist on chain — the explorer at robinhoodchain.blockscout.com will show them — but Phantom will not. Plan ahead: set the recipient to an address you control in a wallet that supports Robinhood Chain, such as MetaMask or Rabby.

Because the two networks use incompatible address formats. Solana addresses are base58 strings tied to Solana's key scheme; Robinhood Chain is an EVM network, where addresses start with 0x. A Solana address can never receive funds on Robinhood Chain. So the bridge asks for two things: your Solana wallet signs and pays on the source side, and a separate EVM address — one whose keys you control — receives on the destination side.

Install a self-custody wallet before bridging. For receiving on Robinhood Chain, MetaMask or Rabby work: install the extension or app, create a wallet, and write the seed phrase down offline — anyone with that phrase controls the funds. Then add Robinhood Chain with chain ID 4663 and RPC https://rpc.mainnet.chain.robinhood.com if it is not listed. Robinhood Chain also supports ERC-4337 account abstraction, the standard behind smart wallets. Do not use an exchange account as a wallet.

Everything is shown in the quote before you sign: network gas on the source chain, the bridge and routing costs of the transfer, and — where the route involves a swap — price impact. The quote itemizes every line, applies your slippage tolerance and states the minimum received. If you do not sign, nothing is sent and nothing is charged.

The estimate in your quote is the time that applies to your transfer, and it is an estimate, not a guarantee. Real times move with source-chain finality, route liquidity and network congestion. Intent-based routes typically complete much faster than canonical bridges, which on the Arbitrum-style path back to Ethereum involve a challenge period of about seven days. Median observed times will be published once a sufficient sample of real transactions exists, with the methodology.

Yes. Use the reverse arrow in the widget to switch direction. Ethereum and Base are the initial destinations, and every exit requires a new live quote — routes out depend on liquidity just as routes in do. Intent-based routes are usually much faster than the canonical withdrawal, but they only exist when liquidity is available. Review the output, cost and estimated time in the quote before signing, exactly as when bridging in.

Robinhood Chain is built with Arbitrum technology, and Arbitrum-style rollups protect canonical withdrawals with a challenge period. After you start the exit, a window of roughly seven days must pass in which the rollup's state can be challenged; only then does a final claim transaction on Ethereum L1 release the funds. The wait is a security mechanism, not slow processing. Intent-based routes avoid it by filling from liquidity on the destination side, which is why they are typically much faster.

No. This is an independent interface. It is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Robinhood Markets, Inc. It quotes and routes cross-chain transfers to and from Robinhood Chain, a public blockchain network anyone can build on. Robinhood trademarks belong to their owner. Nothing here connects to your Robinhood brokerage or app account, and this site cannot see or touch balances you hold there.

No, and it never asks for them. Connecting a wallet shares your public address and lets the site propose transactions; your keys stay inside the wallet, which is where signing happens. Every action requires your explicit approval in the wallet window. If any page claiming to be this interface asks you to type a seed phrase or private key, it is a phishing attempt — close it and do not enter anything.

The interface rejects text that is not a valid EVM address before quoting. If the address is valid but not yours, the funds go there and stay there: confirmed blockchain transactions cannot be reversed by this interface. There is no cancel button after signing. That is why the habits above matter — verify the recipient character by character, send a small test first, and only move the full amount once the test has arrived.

Give it the estimated time from your quote plus some margin; congestion and source-chain finality stretch real times. Then check the source transaction in the source chain's explorer. If it failed there, the transfer never started and only gas was spent. If it confirmed, watch your recipient address at robinhoodchain.blockscout.com — pending usually means the route is still executing, not that funds are lost. If nothing arrives well past the estimate, open the pending-bridge guide and keep your transaction hash at hand.

The most common reason: your wallet does not display Robinhood Chain at all. Add the network — chain ID 4663, RPC https://rpc.mainnet.chain.robinhood.com — or use a wallet that supports it; Phantom currently cannot show it. If the network is added and the balance is still missing, the token may need to be added manually by contract address. Confirm what you actually received in the explorer first, then add that exact contract address in your wallet.
