The Robinhood x Arbitrum announcement should be noted as the perfect example of why CT is the dumbest fucking environment for getting consensus on reality. If you were to believe the "consensus of CT" over the last two years: Arbitrum was dead, a ghost chain. This announcement demonstrated the gulf of a divide between CT perception and objective reality.

Objective reality is that there could be a lot of reasons why and how Arbitrum inked that deal. We have no idea what the metrics are on that decision. imo Abitrum probably paid 100 million + to be the chain robinhood went with.

Just because they use Arb now doesn't mean they will in the future.
