Robinhood Chain FAQ
Robinhood Chain is an Ethereum Layer 2 network. Phantom fully supports it. Once enabled, you can manage, swap, and bridge your assets.
Get started #
How do I turn on Robinhood Chain in Phantom? #
If Robinhood Chain doesn't appear, follow these steps:
- Update Phantom to the latest version.
- Go to Settings > Active Networks.
- Turn on Robinhood Chain.
Is there a separate Robinhood Chain address? #
No. Your wallet address is exactly the same. Robinhood Chain is EVM-compatible. It uses your existing Ethereum address. However, your token balances on each network remain completely separate.
Can I connect to dApps on Robinhood Chain? #
No. dApp connectivity is not currently available.
Gas and network fees #
Do I need ETH on Robinhood Chain? #
Yes. You need ETH on the Robinhood Chain to pay for transactions.
Can I use my Ethereum or Base ETH to pay for Robinhood Chain fees? #
No. ETH on Ethereum, Base, or other networks cannot pay for Robinhood Chain fees. You must bridge or deposit ETH directly to your Robinhood Chain balance first.
Are all transactions on Robinhood Chain gasless? #
No. Only eligible same-network swaps can be gasless. Phantom covers the fee for those specific swaps. Normal transfers, bridges, and other transactions always require you to pay network fees in RH ETH.
Transfers and assets #
How do I find my Robinhood Chain EVM address and transfer ETH to it? #
Your Robinhood Chain EVM address is the exact same 0x address you use for Ethereum, Base, or Polygon.
Find your Robinhood Chain address #
Go to your Phantom wallet, select Receive, and choose Robinhood Chain. Copy the 0x address displayed.

You cannot send ETH directly from the standard Ethereum network to this address and expect it to appear on Robinhood Chain automatically. You must fund it using one of three methods:
- Deposit: Send ETH from an external wallet directly to your Robinhood Chain address.
- Swap in Phantom: Open the Trade tab (1). Tap the You Pay token selector (2), then choose the Ethereum network (3) and Ethereum (4). Tap the You Receive token selector, then choose the Robinhood Chain network (5) and the Ethereum token (6). Enter an amount and tap Swap (7).
- Direct withdrawal: If you are withdrawing from a centralized exchange or the Robinhood App, make sure to explicitly select the Robinhood Chain network as your network routing choice before hitting send.
Why can't I transfer my funds out of Robinhood Chain? #
You likely lack ETH on Robinhood Chain to pay the network fee. Ensure you have a small amount of Robinhood Chain ETH to process the transaction.
Can I buy Robinhood Chain tokens with my Cash account? #
No. Funding Robinhood Chain directly from a Cash account is not supported at this time.
Why am I missing certain tokens or stock assets? #
Asset availability depends on your geographic location. Some real-world asset (RWA) tokens and stock tokens face strict regional restrictions.
Current limitations #
- Direct Cash account funding is disabled.
- Non-swap transactions always require gas fees.
- NFTs, DeFi positions, and dApp connectivity are not currently available.
- Swap and bridge routing depends strictly on regional liquidity.
