Some may say that it's bad timing to launch a mainnet at this period.
But Robinhood Chain doesn't think so; they have built a solid foundation, and the L2 network is only a product branch.
As @RobinhoodApp has introduced in 'The World Is Flat,' here’s what you should know about their product lineup:
+ a US-based app for investing: stocks, ETFs, options
+ a crypto app and wallet for access to common tokens, crypto earn, and also the gateway to Robinhood Chain
+ perp trading via @Lighter_xyz and @arcus_xyz
+ prediction directly via Robinhood App
+ AI/agentic trading
+ payment, banking, and crypto card
Thus, having the network means Robinhood opens a route to connect all their products (if suitable), fulfilling a CeDeFi hub for all financial products.
imo, the final purpose is to eliminate dependence on any specific networks when long-tail institutional RWAs prioritize trust and native network.
In other words, the Robinhood Chain mainnet is set to be launched at roadmap-based timing, no matter bear or bull.
