Robinhood's recent adoption of blockchain technology and tokenization has led to a nearly 30% increase in its stock over the past month, showcasing new growth avenues despite ongoing regulatory challenges. The stock, trading as HOOD, reached $94.65 on Wednesday, just 4% shy of its all-time high from July 2. Over the last month, shares have risen by more than 27%, and year-to-date, they are up 137%, boosting the company's market cap to over $82 billion. Factors contributing to this surge include a 50% year-over-year revenue increase in Q1, totaling $927 million. The momentum picked up after Robinhood announced a layer-2 blockchain focused on tokenization, enabling the offering of tokenized US stocks and ETFs to European investors.
