This Little-Known Altcoin Powering Robinhood's New Blockchain Just Soared By 45%. Is ARB a Buy, Sell, or Hold?

Published September 6, 2026 · Category: Finance

Overview

Arbitrum (CRYPTO: ARB) gained 45% in the last week, marking the most exciting stretch for the coin in at least the last couple of years. The impulse for the move was Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ: HOOD) launching its own blockchain on July 1, running on Arbitrum's technology. Activity on Robinhood's chain thus kicks Arbitrum some fees.
