Robinhood CEO: The future of cryptocurrency lies in real-world assets, not Memecoin.
PANews reported on July 3rd that, according to The Block, Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev stated in an interview with CNBC that the key to growth in the crypto industry lies in the on-chaining of real-world assets, not meme tokens. Tenev stated, "If an asset isn't linked to underlying utility, it's not a productive asset," and believes that traditional finance and crypto are converging. He added, "Everything that runs on traditional tracks will eventually be on-chain and tokenized, like an unstoppable freight train." Robinhood launched its Stock Tokens service on Wednesday, allowing qualified users to trade tokenized stocks 24/7, and plans to offer exposure to private companies like OpenAI. Tenev stated that Bitcoin won't become irrelevant, but the next phase of growth in the industry will come from the tokenization of real-world assets.

The CFTC has launched a full investigation into Polymarket, including allegations of wash trading that have impacted the Robinhood event contract ecosystem; Nasdaq has for the first time distributed TotalView market data on-chain via Pyth Network.
According to Mars Finance and BBX data, the prediction market faced a double whammy yesterday, with traditional exchange infrastructure accelerating its on-chain transformation. Key developments include: Robinhood Markets, Inc. (NASDAQ: $HOOD)'s prediction market/event contract ecosystem suffered a double regulatory blow yesterday: First, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) launched a full investigation into Polymarket (privately held), covering its social media activities and suspected manipulation; second, a Michigan court ruled to prohibit Kalshi (privately held) from offering sports betting services to Michigan residents. While these two events directly target Polymarket and Kalshi, their strategic importance to Robinhood cannot be ignored—Robinhood, through its subsidiary Robinhood Derivatives LLC, offers event contract products linked to KalshiEx LLC or ForecastEx LLC, making it the largest prediction market distribution channel among regulated brokers in the U.S. The CFTC's escalating investigations and enforcement actions against similar platforms will directly impact Robinhood's compliance architecture and product expansion speed; the sector's average daily trading volume in June reached a record high. Nasdaq, Inc. (NASDAQ: $NDAQ) announced yesterday that it has selected Pyth Network (an on-chain price oracle protocol) as its on-chain distribution partner for TotalView (Nasdaq's full market depth data product). This marks the first time Nasdaq has integrated its core institutional-grade market data onto a blockchain network—TotalView provides full-level buy and sell quotes and transaction data for the entire US stock market, historically only available to traditional financial institutions (paid subscriptions). On-chain distribution means that DeFi protocols, decentralized exchanges, and smart contracts can, for the first time, access Nasdaq-level real-time equity market data as an on-chain pricing basis. The Pyth Network token (PYTH) subsequently rose by over 6%, which the market interpreted as a historic convergence of traditional securities market infrastructure and decentralized finance.
Robinhood and Arbitrum have partnered to support the launch of their on-chain trading platform Rialto, which supports cryptocurrencies, stocks, and ETFs.
BlockBeats reported on July 3rd that Robinhood Crypto, Arbitrum, and Offchain Labs have partnered to build Rialto, a new on-chain spot trading platform aiming to "rebuild the on-chain capital market." Driven by a PropAMM (Proprietary Market Maker), Rialto focuses on the integration of crypto and traditional finance, supporting spot trading of various assets including cryptocurrencies, stocks, ETFs, commodities, and pre-IPO assets. Self-custodied equity can be directly used as collateral for third-party lending, stablecoins can flow into broad-based indices in real time, and pre-IPO assets can be traded 24/7. Rialto will operate its own PropAMM, "Rivo Altus," to provide basic liquidity, while also introducing other market makers and institutional liquidity providers. Initially, it will list over 90 Robinhood tokenized stocks and mainstream crypto assets.
