What Stocks Can I Buy on Robinhood Chain?
Rift Research
Last updated
TLDR: On Robinhood Chain you buy Stock Tokens (ERC-20s) issued by Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited. They are not brokerage shares. Funding the position is a send onto chain ID 4663. Rift is an aggregator with best price execution. It can send any token on a Rift-supported chain toward the asset you need on Robinhood Chain and adds 0 fee. If the canonical bridge, Across, Relay, LayerZero or LI.FI wins, Rift gives you that path with no added fee.
What Robinhood says Stock Tokens are
Robinhood’s chain docs:
Stock Tokens are tokenised debt securities issued by Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited (“RHJ”). The Product provides economic exposure to underlying securities like US shares and ETFs, but does not grant investors any legal or beneficial rights in, or against the issuer of, those underlying securities. Stock Tokens are issued as standard ERC-20 tokens that can be held, transferred, and composed into applications onchain.
Source: Stock Tokens.
The public product page repeats the wrapper and the restriction: Stock Tokens are not registered under US securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to US persons. They are also restricted in other jurisdictions. See robinhood.com/us/en/chain and Invest with Stock Tokens.
That is the instrument. It is not “buying NVDA in the Robinhood app.”
How they trade onchain
- Each Stock Token is an ERC-20 with 18 decimals.
- Canonical addresses are listed on Token Contracts. A matching ticker on a different address is not a Robinhood Stock Token.
- Prices are onchain via per-asset Chainlink feeds. See Oracles & Price Feeds.
- Corporate actions use an onchain multiplier (
uiMultiplier(), ERC-8056). The feed returns the multiplier-adjusted token price. - Robinhood’s builder docs say tokenized stocks trade via RFQ at launch, while remaining transferable ERC-20s. See Building with Stock Tokens.
- Offchain metadata and prices:

Names that appear in Robinhood’s own marketing include tokenized NVIDIA, Google, Apple and Invesco QQQ, with a “190+” figure on the Stock Token page. Treat that as marketing, not your inventory. Read the live registry before you send.
Two products people mix up
| Product | What it is | Official note |
|---|---|---|
| Robinhood brokerage app | Custodial stocks and crypto | Separate from the chain |
| Robinhood Chain Stock Tokens | Onchain ERC-20s issued by RHJ | “Not connected to your Robinhood brokerage or crypto accounts” |

How to fund a Stock Token buy
The buy is a send onto Robinhood Chain, then a swap or RFQ into the token.
Robinhood documents the send rails on Bridging: canonical Arbitrum bridge (~10 min from Ethereum), LayerZero / Stargate, Chainlink CCIP, Relay (seconds), Across (seconds), LI.FI / 0x (swap-and-send).
Robinhood Wallet already calls this send / receive / swap and routes swaps through 0x and LI.FI. See Send, receive, and swap crypto.
Other options, then Rift
- Robinhood Wallet if you already hold the account and want their send + swap UI.
- Canonical bridge + RFQ / DEX if the source is Ethereum and you want the trustless inbound.
- Across or Relay if Robinhood’s table matches your need for a seconds-path.
- LI.FI or 0x if you want their aggregator directly.
Use Rift when the source is any token on a Rift-supported chain and the destination is the Stock Token (or the USDC / ETH / USDG you need first). Rift is an aggregator with best price execution. It includes the overlapping venues. Rift adds 0 fee. You get the winning path with no Rift markup.
Rift supported chains: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Hyperliquid, RobinhoodChain, Tempo, XLayer, Ink and Pharos.
FAQ
Are Stock Tokens the same as owning the share?
No. Robinhood’s docs say they do not grant legal or beneficial rights in the underlying issuer’s securities.
Can US persons buy them?
Robinhood’s public pages say they may not be offered, sold or delivered in the United States or to US persons. Confirm your own eligibility. This page is not an offer.
How do I know I have the real token?
Use the address on Token Contracts, not the ticker string.
