Deutsche Bank has identified the Robinhood blockchain as a significant new revenue catalyst for the retail brokerage. Launched on July 1, this Ethereum Layer-2 chain built on Arbitrum technology has already processed over $12 billion in cumulative DEX volume and more than 150 million transactions. During peak periods, daily fees reached between $3.8 million and $4.5 million, implying a potential annualized run-rate exceeding $100 million, although actual fees collected so far sit closer to $10 million. Tokenized real-world assets on the network surged roughly fivefold after launch, reaching a market value of approximately $70 million. This performance complements other newer offerings like event contracts, which pulled in $156 million in the second quarter of 2026.
