Sign InIn a move that strengthens the integration of traditional assets into decentralized ecosystems, Arcus has launched 24/7 trading for over 95 tokenized US stocks on the Robinhood Chain. The platform, a decentralized exchange built by the dYdX team with backing from Robinhood, also introduced beta perpetual markets utilizing USDG as collateral. This rollout aims to expand on-chain financial offerings and provide investors with continuous access to major equities outside of standard market hours.
This expansion occurs as the decentralized finance (DeFi) industry sees a growing trend toward Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization, with major firms like BlackRock and Franklin Templeton increasing their footprint in the sector. Per market data, Robinhood's HOOD stock faces intensifying competition from both traditional and decentralized platforms adopting blockchain technology to reduce settlement costs and enhance transparency.
Regarding market performance, HOOD closed at $99.28 (as of July 20, 2026) after trading between a daily low of $98.61 and a high of $102.6. Traders are closely monitoring how this technical expansion will impact the company's crypto-related revenue, particularly as the market awaits key US economic data that could influence risk appetite across the technology and digital finance sectors.
