Robinhood Stock Tokens
Robinhood Stock Tokens are ERC-20 tokens issued by Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited that give economic exposure to a US share or ETF — not ownership of it, and not for US persons.
Updated 17 Aug 2026. Facts checked against Robinhood’s own chain docs.
Robinhood Stock Tokens are standard ERC-20 tokens issued by Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited (“RHJ”) that give economic exposure to underlying US shares and ETFs. RHJ is also the tokenizer. Its own documents call them tokenised debt securities — that is the legal instrument, and it is not a share.
The sentence that matters, in RHJ’s wording: the product does not grant investors any legal or beneficial rights in, or against the issuer of, those underlying securities. No voting. No dividend claim against the company. No position on anyone’s shareholder register. A price, a redemption mechanism, and an issuer in Jersey.
Koi is independent, has not announced a product on Robinhood Chain, and is not connected to Robinhood. Nothing here is an offer. This page exists because the official pages are thin and most of what ranks is Robinhood quoting itself.
Facts

| Corporate actions | Onchain multiplier read via uiMultiplier(), defined by ERC-8056 (Scaled UI Amount Extension) |
| Primary market | Only Authorised Participants may subscribe directly from RHJ, after KYB onboarding. At issuance, the only Authorised Participant is BBVI. |
| US status | Not registered under US securities laws. May not be offered, sold, or delivered in the United States or to, or for the benefit of, US persons (Regulation S). |

How the token behaves
Each Stock Token is an ordinary ERC-20 contract with 18 decimals, corresponding to one ticker. Nothing about holding or transferring one requires a special SDK — the same wallets and libraries that handle any ERC-20 handle these.
Prices come from per-asset Chainlink feeds published onchain, so a contract can read a price without an offchain API. That is the part developers care about and the part that makes these tokens composable at all.
Dividends and splits are handled by an onchain multiplier that adjusts the shares-per-token ratio. A raw balance can stay static until redemption while the multiplier moves, and the oracle incorporates the multiplier into the price. The docs expose it as uiMultiplier(), defined by ERC-8056, the Scaled UI Amount Extension. A balance read without the multiplier is not the number a holder is owed.
Primary market is not the secondary market
Only Authorised Participants can subscribe for Stock Tokens directly from RHJ, and only after KYB onboarding. The docs say that at issuance the only Authorised Participant is BBVI. Everyone else composes with tokens that already exist.
This is the distinction that gets lost. Minting is a restricted, vetted, offchain-gated process. Trading a token that has already been minted is a different activity with a different set of rules, and the second one is what most people are actually looking at when they see a stock ticker on a block explorer.
Who cannot hold them
Stock Tokens have not been and will not be registered under the US Securities Act of 1933, or with any state or other US securities regulator. They may not be offered, sold, or delivered in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, US persons as defined in Regulation S — only outside the US and to transferees who are not US persons.
Offers and sales are restricted in other jurisdictions too, including Canada, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland. RHJ publishes the full list. If a page tells you which VPN makes this work, close the page.
What the docs say developers can build
Robinhood’s documentation lists its own examples for integrators: displaying Stock Tokens in a wallet, portfolio tracker, or trading interface; enabling trading; and building lending markets that use the tokens as collateral.
That is their list, not our pitch. Koi does not offer any of it, has no product on this chain, and is not soliciting anyone to build or trade anything.
A ticker is not a stock token
Robinhood Chain is permissionless. Anyone can deploy an ERC-20 and name it after a company, and there is a whole genre of tokens whose only feature is a familiar ticker. Those are not issued by RHJ, are not backed by anything, and give exposure to nothing but their own order book. How a memecoin actually gets created is worth reading purely so the contrast is obvious — not as a suggestion to launch one.
The check is boring and it works: a real Stock Token traces back to RHJ’s documents and a Chainlink feed. If you cannot find both, you are looking at something else.
Questions people actually type
Are Robinhood Stock Tokens the same as owning the stock?
No. They are tokenised debt securities issued by RHJ that give economic exposure to an underlying security without any legal or beneficial rights in it, or any claim against its issuer.
Who issues them?
Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited, a private limited company incorporated in Jersey, registration number 162428. RHJ is also the tokenizer.
Can Americans buy Robinhood Stock Tokens?
No. They are not registered under US securities laws and may not be offered, sold, or delivered in the US or to US persons. Canada, the UK, and Switzerland are restricted as well.
What happens on a dividend or a split?
An onchain multiplier adjusts the shares-per-token ratio while the raw balance stays static until redemption. Read it with uiMultiplier().
Can I mint one?
Only if you are an Authorised Participant who has completed KYB with RHJ. At issuance, the docs name BBVI as the only one.
