Analysis of Robinhood Wallet Deployment
Here's the full
the kind of full lore the most important thread you'll read this year spent days
Tracing wallet on robinhood chain. Here's what I found.
It started with vlad himself He said on july 8th that we need a robust wallet for
a robust chain A year before he mentioned a wallet on arbitrum scan in this tweet.
He linked here uh,
and this wallet was funded by this aa33 wallet the same wallet deployed wallet on
Robinhood chain so essentially like a year ago vlad sort of like doxed his wallet
through arbitrum scan I guess there was like a
video that came out or like a test uh a test, um A test transaction that
they were doing on arbitrum and through this, you know through this.
Um through this tweet you know, they kind of uh came out with um
They kind of came out with uh, his wallet got doxed Anyway,
so that's where this whole thing.
So the same wallet deployed
um So that wallet that they use for that test arbitrum transaction
Was funded by the same wallet that deployed the wallet token.
Okay, so that's the that's the first piece the second piece I traced
that deploy wallet back through multiple chains on arbitrum.
It received funds from a few other wallets
um That wallet was funded by uh,
this richard Wrightsfield which is the senior ios engineer at robinhood Okay,
then I found the
connection to vlad's uh mentioned wallet tracing it back
375 days ago put that in arkham click the labels ethereum's first ethereum
first funder
Nomuja on opensea,
which is again that same head of project manager, uh, the head project manager Um
on robinhood, so these are not this is not like speculation as far as oh,
I think or whatever These wallets are clearly
connected in some way shape or form and some of these wallets have been um
have been uh Id to be you know Uh robinhood team members
and one of them was also a test wallet, uh from vlad himself
And and that's
what he says here we have three confirmed robinhood team members connected to the
wallet deployer Now let's go deeper on robinhood chain itself.
The wallet deployer received 0
15 eth just before deploying the token That address received eth at block
34 Block 34 the chain had just started producing blocks.
You cannot be earlier than that The block 34 wallet had zero incoming transactions
on record not in the genesis json No internal transactions. No balance history.
It simply had eth from the very beginning of the chain This is arb os
level initialization Funded by robinhood at the infrastructure
layer before block one.
So not only are wallets connected um Not only is the wallet
deployer the the the wallet token deployer connected to multiple robinhood
team members
This funded uh,
this wallet that was funded that they're talking about here
Was funded at the infrastructure level.
It wasn't like uh eth was sent to the wallet.
This was funded at the infrastructure level um, because it happened before Uh,
it was it was
uh had eth in it before blocks were even you know being being made basically
um that same block 34 while it was also funded by Funded the paxos hot
wallet paxos is the issuer of
usdg On robinhood chain custodian for paypal and mastercard regulated trust bank
with a national charter Robinhood pre funded their
infrastructure partner from the very first blocks at block 41.
This is not a trader This is the chain operator Notice anything else
about these two addresses they they share the same middle section This is
a vanity address pair someone generated these deliberately Institutional
operators do this to visually identify their own wallets
Then I found the final piece I looked up at at
who deployed the entire robinhood chain on ethereum the robinhood chain
deployer last force 30 ca Its ethereum first funder on arkham was
last for 96 49
The same wallet that funded the wallet token deployer is the wallet that funded
the address that deployed the whole robinhood chain
That is crazy so the the wallet
Whoever launched wallet token the deployer wallet is the same people that
deployed the whole robinhood chain
Let that sink in for let that sink in for a second so in in going along
with um wax kind of approach to the tibber
thesis We don't know what this token is.
We don't know what this token represents We don't know You know exactly what it
will do or what it will mean in the future if it has utility or whatever All
we're taking note of right now and giving cre giving credence to is the on
chain Due diligence that that's been done and i'm assuming all of this
is correct I mean this guy has been like writing uh posts for like two weeks now Uh,
he was the he was the reason I found the wallet token in the first place.
Um the complete chain of evidence
Robinhood master ops wallet
funded robinhood deploy robinhood chain deployer Deploy the entire chain
infrastructure it funded the paxos hot wallet again.
Paxos is the the um, the people that um, that uh provide the
infrastructure for usdg on um On uh on robinhood chain it funded the wallet
token funding wallet.
It funded the wallet deployer, right?
so literally
And then if the
last thing you look at is the timing apparently like when you when you look
May 15th deployer wallet funded seven weeks before mainnet july 1st robin
chain went mainnet july 10th
Wallet deploys nine days after launch.
They waited watch the chain
stabilized and pull the trigger This is deliberate plan legal clearance obtained.
This was a post launch deliberate decision Not an accidental
or test token robinhood made a conscious
choice to deploy this token nine days after mainnet they had legal clearance
