Bernstein just raised its price target on Robinhood stock to $160, and the key driver is not crypto trading volume. Instead, the firm sees long-term value in Robinhood’s blockchain infrastructure. Robinhood Wrapped ETH on Robinhood Chain has gained about 2% over the past week, while daily trading volume sits near $44 million. Those numbers suggest the network is attracting steady activity rather than short-lived hype.
Bernstein analysts, led by Gautam Chhugani, lifted their HOOD target from $130 to $160, based on a 2028 EPS estimate of $4.56 and a 35x forward P/E multiple. The firm expects prediction markets, perpetual futures, and Robinhood Chain to generate 18% of total revenue by 2027, rising to 23% in 2028. Prediction markets alone could contribute $1.7 billion by 2028.

Robinhood, The Stock Platform Juggernaut
Robinhood’s second-quarter earnings arrive on July 29, and Bernstein expects new businesses to soften any slowdown in crypto trading revenue. That fits a growing trend across the market. Investors increasingly reward companies building the rails for digital assets instead of simply benefiting from speculative token rallies. Building the highway often pays better than collecting tolls during rush hour.
Robinhood Chain could also benefit the crypto market beyond its own ecosystem. More Layer 2 infrastructure gives users cheaper transactions and faster settlement while helping Ethereum scale. As more developers deploy applications and liquidity spreads across new networks, on-chain activity becomes easier to access for retail users. Fresh competition rarely hurts innovation, especially in crypto.
For traders, the takeaway is simple. Robinhood Chain appears to be gaining real usage, and that matters more than any single token’s price action. If network adoption keeps climbing, it could strengthen Ethereum’s ecosystem and encourage more capital to flow into decentralized finance. In crypto, the flashiest coin grabs headlines, but the strongest infrastructure often wins the longest race.

LiquidChain Targets Cross-Chain Infrastructure as HOOD Token Tests Lows
The Robinhood Chain story is a reminder that chain-level infrastructure can capture value before native tokens catch up. That gap is exactly where early-stage infrastructure finds its pitch. Investors rotating out of speculative token exposure are increasingly looking at what’s being built at the execution layer.
LiquidChain is positioning as a Layer 3 infrastructure project with a specific structural thesis: fuse Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana liquidity into a single execution environment. The USP is architectural with a Unified Liquidity Layer with Single-Step Execution, Verifiable Settlement, and a Deploy-Once framework that lets developers access all three ecosystems without rebuilding for each chain.
