Tokenized stocks are coming to @Arbitrum btw

money is entering Arbitrum faster. Base is holding it better let's look at bridge traffic (7 days): ‣ 7d Bridge Inflow ➛ Arbitrum: $1.18B — Base: $415.63M ‣ 7d Bridge Outflow ➛ Arbitrum: $989.52M — Base: $381.63M ‣ 7d Net Flow ➛ Arbitrum: $190.92M — Base: $34M ‣ Net Flow / TVL ➛ Arbitrum: 15.3% — Base: 0.7% Arbitrum is pulling in 2.8x more bridge inflow than Base. net capital inflow is 5.6x higher. relative to its own size, the money entering Arbitrum is far more meaningful ➛ but when you look at existing accumulation the picture flips: ‣ Total TVL ➛ Arbitrum: $1.41B — Base: $4.67B ‣ USD Stablecoin Supply ➛ Arbitrum: $4.78B — Base: $3.68B ‣ 7d TVL Growth ➛ Arbitrum: +6.76% — Base: +2.02% Base has 3.7x Arbitrum's TVL. it's taking in less new capital but managing to hold what it has — and growing at 6.76% weekly versus Arbitrum's 2.02% ➛ so what does this mean? two different L2 growth strategies: ➛ Arbitrum's model: high turnover ‣ major institutional inflow wave with the Robinhood Chain launch (late June) ‣ DRIP incentive program ($40M) pumping active DeFi activity ‣ $1.18B bridge inflow in 7 days capital comes in, trades, but some leaves ‣ stablecoin supply below Base ($3.68B vs $4.78B) circulating capital is more "temporary" ➛ Base's model: low turnover, high accumulation ‣ users accustomed to staying on Base directly through Coinbase's distribution advantage ‣ 96% of x402 payments run on Base ‣ less bridge traffic ➛ capital arrives with less "exit" intent ‣ $4.78B stablecoin ➛ capital on Base is more in "hold and use" mode the difference between "enters fast" and "holds well" determines the next move Arbitrum's challenge: retaining incoming capital. $1.18B inflow ➛ $989.52M outflow ➛ 16.2% retention. of every $100 that comes in, $84 leaves Base's challenge: attracting new capital. growing existing $4.67B TVL with just $415M inflow requires higher volume bridge activity ➛ which of these two strategies is more sustainable? the answer depends on which phase you're in: growth phase (Arbitrum): high incentives + high inflow ➛ capturing market share maturation phase (Base): low incentives + high retention ➛ efficiently deploying accumulated capital there may be no winner in DeFi's L2 war. but there are two different growth dynamics and knowing which phase each chain is in matters more than deciding where to put your capital

240K new stock token holders joined Robinhood. for context, that's the highest holder growth in the past 30 days. @RobinhoodApp's tokenization strategy is already paying off. > highest holder growth across all blockchains. > Robinhood now accounts for around 27% of stock token holders. > Robinhood serves over 27.7M funded customers. > more than $377B in platform assets. these numbers are a result of the system in place before the chain went live. robinhood had positioned itself on many retail apps and protocols. which made the user base already there before the products. i've always believed distribution beats great technology alone. another reason this growth stands out is where it is happening. Since, Robinhood Chain is built on the @arbitrum platform, robinhood gets a purpose-built chain for tokenized assets. arbitrum gains one of the strongest real-world onboarding funnels in crypto. the growth in holders also makes sense when you look at what has happened on robinhood the past weeks. ➥ it launched 200+ tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs for eligible European users. ➥ also introduced tokenized exposure tied to private companies, including @OpenAI and @SpaceX. ➥ It also allows 24/7 markets with huge DeFi integration on its chain. these are just some of the recent events propelling this growth. robinhood has been building momentum ever since launch. now it is leading the market in new stock token holders. really good to see.

Now everyone is talking about barbells But the ORIGINAL barbell was always the @Arbitrum Platform

Gaming is so dead... Literally a few good ones left. Good news is that we only need that ONE good game to kickstart the gaming run.
