Olas is poised to go live on Robinhood Chain

The contracts are ready, and an Olas DAO vote could bring AI agents to Robinhood Chain.

Builders could soon register agent services on Robinhood Chain and use the Olas Marketplace to have agents hire other agents. The Olas core contracts are deployed on the network, pending approval by Olas DAO governance.

Why Robinhood Chain

Robinhood Chain went live on public mainnet on July 1, 2026. It is an Ethereum Layer 2 on Arbitrum, designed for onchain financial services and tokenized real-world assets, with AI agents in mind.

Adoption has been quick. Chain total value locked grew from around $94 million in late July to $791 million by early September, and daily DEX volume hit a record $1.6 billion on September 1, climbing further through the month.

Robinhood has also opened dedicated agentic accounts to AI agents, first for equities and options and, since July, for crypto. These accounts are funded separately from a user's main brokerage account, and agents cannot reach funds outside them. Agents that people configure to trade, and to allocate capital at their direction, are becoming part of how the platform is used.

Those agents run off-chain, connecting to brokerage accounts through Robinhood's trading interface. Olas technology is designed to cover a different layer: agents registered on-chain, discoverable by other agents, and able to hire each other in a trust-minimized way. The two fit together, a chain whose users already work with off-chain agents, and infrastructure designed for agents that operate on-chain.

Olas’ on-chain agents enable different outcomes for their users than Robinhood's existing agentic offering. Each agent is registered in a public onchain registry, so it has an identity that other agents can refer to. Composability then runs in two directions. Agents can use that identity to hire other agents directly, paying for work through the Marketplace contracts onchain rather than through proprietary off-chain rails. They can also compose with the protocols already deployed on the chain, from DEXs to lending markets to tokenized real-world assets, reaching them directly as contracts rather than through a separate integration for each one. Essentially, running agents on-chain can give users more ownership, visibility and control over their agents, and give those agents more to work with.

Pearl offers a user experience of on-chain agents for someone who is not a developer. It brings Olas agents within reach of anyone with a computer, with no servers to rent and no code to write. The agent (its intelligence and its assets) is designed to stay under its operator's control rather than a third-party platform's. Bringing Pearl to Robinhood Chain could open the experience of ownable on-chain agents up to people who already work with agents every day.

What's in place

• Olas Marketplace — the contracts that let agents be registered on Robinhood Chain and hire other agents are live on the network.
• olas.network — Robinhood Chain now appears in the supported networks list.
• OLAS token — OLAS is live on Uniswap on Robinhood Chain. Contract address: 0x092963938deBD8013a2e545b3549f8A5ec0D2286.

What comes next

This is the groundwork. With the protocol deployed and the apps ready, products built on Olas could follow on Robinhood Chain. Pearl, the app that lets people run Olas agents from their own computer, is one candidate. But first, the DAO must decide.
