A blockchain infrastructure firm, 0x, has integrated with Robinhood Chain at launch, providing liquidity for tokenized stock assets and enabling cross-chain transactions. The move positions 0x as a core infrastructure provider for Robinhood’s new blockchain platform focused on financial services and tokenized real-world assets.
The integration delivers two main components: request-for-quote (RFQ) liquidity for tokenized equities and access to cross-chain transfers through the 0x cross-chain API. Together, these allow users to move assets between Robinhood Chain and other supported networks in a single transaction, removing the need for multiple bridges or manual conversions.
How liquidity and pricing will work
Robinhood Chain will support round-the-clock trading of tokenized equities and exchange-traded products, built with an emphasis on regulated financial markets. Liquidity will come from an RFQ model that connects market makers directly to the network, rather than relying on automated liquidity pools.
This structure enables professional trading firms to quote prices based on their own inventory. At launch, trades for major U.S. company tokens will be paired against USDG, with Tokka Labs acting as a primary market maker.
Cross-chain access and network reach
Through the 0x cross-chain API, users on Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Solana, and other supported networks can transfer stablecoins and trade tokenized stocks seamlessly. The same API network has already processed more than $230 million in bridged assets during its beta phase, spanning over 25 blockchains and multiple bridge providers.
The integration expands 0x’s existing role in powering Robinhood Wallet swaps across Ethereum Virtual Machine networks, adding asset transfer and liquidity capabilities for the new chain.
Market context and growth of tokenized assets
The launch comes as tokenized real-world assets surpass $43 billion in total value by mid-2026, signaling accelerating adoption of blockchain-based financial instruments. Forecasts from Citigroup suggest the market could grow to between $2.7 trillion and $8.2 trillion by 2030.
Large institutions have driven much of this growth. BlackRock’s tokenized Treasury fund, BUIDL, exceeded $2.5 billion in assets within a year of launch, highlighting demand for blockchain-based exposure to traditional products.
Technology stack and ecosystem partners
Robinhood Chain has launched as a layer-2 network built on Arbitrum, aiming to reduce transaction costs compared to Ethereum mainnet. Alongside 0x, service providers such as Chainlink are integrated from day one to supply external data feeds critical for pricing and settlement.
0x’s broader ecosystem has processed more than $400 billion in transaction volume, with over 200 million transactions executed and more than 500 products built on its APIs.
Access, restrictions, and developer tools
Developers can access the 0x swap API and cross-chain API for Robinhood Chain integrations, with documentation available at launch. The company, founded in 2017 by Will Warren and Amir Bandeali, has raised $109 million from firms including Pantera Capital, Greylock, and Coinbase Ventures.
Tokenized securities on the network are subject to geographic restrictions and are not available to U.S. persons. These assets are issued by third parties, while 0x operates strictly as a technology provider.
Implications for trading dynamics
Round-the-clock trading of tokenized equities introduces price discovery outside traditional market hours, allowing traders to react to global events in real time. Combined with seamless cross-chain transfers, capital can move quickly between ecosystems, potentially tightening price gaps across networks and increasing market efficiency.
