Arbitrum: Tech-e not only trust

EVM compatibility? Check. Optimistic Rollup efficiency? Check. Developer ecosystem? Double check.

Yet… there’s irony in this choice.

The Ghost of Base Is Watching

Coinbase Base open-source magic—invite developers, attract DApps, grow fast。Now Robinhood wants to walk into that same room and say, “We’ll do it better.” But not really better—with more walls around it?

If Robinhood builds its own L2 on Arbitrum Chains but keeps everything closed—no public APIs, no third-party apps—then it becomes less an innovation and more… a mirror.

I call this “closed-loop native”: leveraging blockchain tech while refusing its ethos.

There are risks in being too close to Base—even if you’re not copying code, your strategy looks identical at scale.

What If They Don’t Play the Game?

Token Terminal has a bold suggestion: don’t open up your chain. Instead, migrate all existing services onto-chain first. Make every trade, every portfolio view, every withdrawal happen directly on chain—with no middlemen.

This is where things get interesting—and terrifying for old-school finance.

Imagine logging into Robinhood and seeing your holdings not as numbers behind a firewall… but as NFTs on Arbitrum—a real-time ledger visible even when servers crash.

That would be true decentralization—not just branding it with “crypto” labels while keeping control centralised under layers of UX polish. to me, it’s not about which chain wins—it’s about whether we’re still trading fear for access under new names.
