Robinhood's vision for on-chain finance just gained one of crypto's biggest distribution channels.
Trust Wallet has integrated Robinhood Chain, giving its more than 220 million users access to the new Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 from within a self-custodial wallet. Users can now send, receive, swap and securely store assets issued on Robinhood Chain, including cryptocurrencies, meme coins and tokenized real-world assets such as stocks.
The integration comes just days after Robinhood launched the public mainnet of Robinhood Chain, expanding access to a network designed to bring traditional financial assets on-chain.
Bringing Tokenized Markets to Self-Custody
Robinhood Chain was built as a permissionless, Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 focused on tokenized finance.
The network combines cryptocurrencies, tokenized stocks and other real-world assets on a single blockchain while allowing developers to build decentralized financial applications on top of the ecosystem. It also supports 24/7 trading of eligible stock tokens in supported jurisdictions, extending traditional market access beyond standard trading hours.
With Trust Wallet integration now live across both its mobile app and browser extension, users can manage Robinhood Chain assets without relying on centralized custody or leaving the wallet.
According to Trust Wallet, users remain in full control of their private keys throughout the process while gaining direct access to Robinhood Chain's growing ecosystem.
Robinhood Is Building More Than a Blockchain
Robinhood has positioned the new network as infrastructure for the next generation of digital finance.
Alongside tokenized stocks, Robinhood Chain supports decentralized trading, lending, borrowing and AI-native financial applications. The network launched with infrastructure partners including Alchemy, BitGo and Chainlink, while protocols such as Uniswap are deploying liquidity from day one.
Robinhood says the chain was designed to bridge traditional finance and decentralized finance by giving users access to real-world assets in a permissionless environment.
Eligible users can already access tokenized U.S. stocks through the Robinhood Wallet in more than 120 countries, with assets available for around-the-clock trading.
Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev has also acknowledged the growing meme coin activity on the network, highlighting that Robinhood Chain is intended to support both speculative crypto markets and long-term tokenization initiatives.
Expanding Robinhood Chain's Reach
For Robinhood Chain, adding Trust Wallet significantly expands its reach beyond Robinhood's own products.
Rather than keeping assets inside a brokerage or a dedicated wallet, users can now hold Robinhood Chain assets alongside thousands of other cryptocurrencies in a self-custodial environment while interacting with decentralized applications across the broader Web3 ecosystem.
The integration also follows a broader trend among wallet providers. Since Robinhood Chain's mainnet launch, several major wallets have added support for the network, reflecting growing industry interest in tokenized assets and on-chain financial infrastructure.
As competition around real-world assets accelerates, wallet support is becoming an important part of the adoption story.
For Robinhood, reaching one of crypto's largest self-custody wallets helps extend its on-chain ecosystem to a global audience. For Trust Wallet users, it provides direct access to one of the industry's newest Layer 2 networks as tokenized stocks, cryptocurrencies and decentralized finance continue to converge.
