- Bitget Wallet now supports Robinhood Chain, enabling onchain tokenized stock trading.
- Users can trade 90+ tokenized equities, including Apple, NVIDIA, and index products like QQQ.
- The integration removes brokerage accounts, giving self-custodial access to global stock markets.
Bitget Wallet has announced a new partnership with Robinhood Crypto to integrate Robinhood Chain. The move will let users access tokenized stock trading directly from their self-custodial wallets without opening a traditional brokerage account.
Notably, the integration is already live on the Robinhood Chain mainnet. Meanwhile, full trading functionality, market data, and decentralized application (dApp) access will roll out in the coming weeks.
Through the partnership, Bitget Wallet’s 90 million users will gain access to more than 90 tokenized stocks using a single on-chain account.
Robinhood Chain Brings Tokenized Equities Onchain
Robinhood Chain is an Ethereum Layer 2 network built with Arbitrum Orbit technology. It is designed specifically for tokenized real-world assets (RWAs). The permissionless blockchain enables tokenized stocks, exchange-traded products (ETPs), and private market assets to settle on-chain while remaining under users’ self-custody.
Unlike traditional brokerage platforms, Robinhood Chain is open to third-party developers, exchanges, and lending platforms. This enables the development of an ecosystem of financial applications around tokenized assets.
Through Bitget Wallet, users will be able to trade hundreds of Stock Tokens. These include shares of major companies such as NVIDIA, Google, and Apple, as well as tokenized index products like Invesco QQQ. All of these assets can be managed alongside users’ crypto holdings in the same wallet.
Partnership Targets Easier Global Investing
The companies said the partnership will make global equity markets more accessible. It aims to remove barriers such as brokerage account requirements, geographic restrictions, and limited trading hours.
Robinhood Crypto Director of Partnerships Gaëtan Thabot said the launch advances Robinhood’s vision of open financial infrastructure. He noted that the platform now serves 27.7 million funded accounts with more than $377 billion in assets and said Robinhood Chain extends that vision by enabling transparent on-chain settlement while keeping Stock Tokens under users’ direct ownership. He added that the Bitget Wallet integration extends access to the platform’s 90 million global users.
Bitget Wallet Chief Operating Officer Alvin Kan said the partnership gives users access to tokenized shares of some of the world’s most actively traded companies through a single on-chain account. He noted that users can do so without opening a brokerage account.
Traditional Finance’s Onchain Shift Continues
The partnership highlights the ongoing trend of traditional financial institutions adopting blockchain infrastructure for real-world assets.
According to the companies, many existing RWA platforms rely on third-party custodians or synthetic versions of equities. Robinhood Chain instead focuses on transparent on-chain settlement and self-custody. Users hold tokenized assets directly, while developers can build financial applications on an open network.
The launch also adds momentum to the growing market for tokenized real-world assets as more financial firms explore blockchain infrastructure for traditional investment products.
