Singapore, August 15, 2026 — Chainstack, a Web3 infrastructure platform serving 100K+ developers across 70+ blockchain networks, has added Robinhood Chain support across three deployment models: Global Nodes, Dedicated Nodes, and Chainstack Self-Hosted. Robinhood Chain mainnet went live on July 1, 2026. Chainstack endpoints are live for mainnet and testnet.
What Robinhood Chain is
Robinhood Chain is an Ethereum layer 2 purpose-designed for finance and tokenized real-world assets. It uses Ether (ETH) as its gas token and runs on chain ID 4663 for mainnet and 46630 for testnet.
One detail matters for trading workloads: transaction ordering is decided by arrival time at the sequencer, not by priority fee. Endpoint latency is part of execution quality, not a background cost concern.
Three deployment paths, one control plane
| Global Nodes | Dedicated Nodes | Chainstack Self-Hosted | |
| Infrastructure | Elastic, load-balanced | Isolated node instance | Customer's own cloud, on-premises, or bare metal |
| Requests | Metered in request units | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Control | Standard | Full node configuration | Full stack |
| Data residency | Chainstack-operated regions | Chainstack-operated regions | Customer-controlled |
| Best for | Wallets, DApps, scaling production | Trading desks, indexers, high-throughput RWA protocols | Regulated issuers, sovereignty requirements |
Global Nodes are auto-scaling, load-balanced RPC endpoints; Dedicated Nodes are isolated high-performance instances with unlimited requests. Chainstack Self-Hosted is a Kubernetes-native control plane for running nodes inside the customer's own environment, handling deployment, monitoring, updates, and recovery, with one-click deployment, self-healing, and snapshot bootstrapping that brings new nodes online without a full sync from genesis. Chainstack is among the first infrastructure providers to offer a self-hosted path for Robinhood Chain.
Why the third path matters
Tokenized-equity infrastructure splits three ways. A proprietary trading firm needs latency guarantees. A wallet integrating tokenized equities needs cost-predictable throughput. A regulated issuer or licensed broker-dealer frequently cannot place customer-linked transaction data on third-party infrastructure at all, regardless of the provider's certifications.
"RWA teams can get the token model and compliance framework right and still be blocked by infrastructure policy," said Eugene Aseev, CTO and co-founder of Chainstack.
"For a regulated issuer, where the node runs can decide whether the product ships at all. With managed and self-hosted deployments on the same control plane, teams can bring infrastructure into their own environment without rebuilding the stack."
Availability
Robinhood Chain joins Chainstack's 70+ supported networks, including Ethereum, Solana, Base, Arbitrum, Polygon, BNB Smart Chain and Hyperliquid — one platform, one billing relationship, and one observability layer for cross-chain RWA flows. Chainstack also operates a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets developers query on-chain data and deploy nodes from Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT, Codex, and Gemini.
Endpoints are live now. Create a Chainstack account, deploy a node on mainnet or testnet, and start building. Testnet tokens are available through the Chainstack faucet, and free-tier access is available for teams evaluating the network.
