Introducing Longbow, the credit layer for Robinhood Chain.
Longbow lets you borrow USDG against tokenized stocks, RWAs, crypto and the long tail, without selling the underlying. Every market is isolated, every parameter is published onchain, and the protocol is built on @Morpho Blue and priced by Chainlink.
The reason we built it is simple: owning something shouldn't mean you have to sell it to get liquidity. TradFi does this with securities-backed lending, but it's gated, slow, and on someone else's terms. Onchain, it can be open, transparent and 24/7.
Most lenders pick a lane, bluechip crypto or a handful of stocks. We built Longbow to handle all of it. Equities, treasuries, crypto, project tokens and the long tail. If it's onchain and has a market, it can be collateral here. Every new token on Robinhood Chain is collateral waiting to happen, and Longbow is where it becomes borrowable.
That range only works because of how we handle risk. Every market is isolated, so nothing spills from one to another. Parameters are set carefully, oracles validated, liquidations designed to keep each market solvent. That's what lets us list everything from treasuries to the long tail without one bad market touching the rest.
We built on Robinhood Chain because it's where tokenized real-world assets actually live. Hundreds of thousands of RWA holders in under a month, equities and treasuries settling onchain every day, priced by Chainlink, settled in USDG.
These are people bringing real portfolios onchain, many for the first time. The moment you hold a tokenized stock, the natural next question is what you can do with it without selling. Longbow is the answer: borrow against it, keep the position, keep the upside.
It's live now, with markets across tokenized stocks, RWAs and crypto. This is just the start.

Curated markets. Isolated risk.

Humans and agents borrow from the same Longbow markets.
Same collateral, same rates, same liquidation rules. The only difference is the agent never looks away.
We broke down what that means for liquidations on Ep 5 of The Draw.
@vladtenev We just listed all 8 new Stock Tokens as collateral. JPM, Visa, PayPal, McDonald’s, Disney, Uber, GDX and BMNR. Borrow USDG against any of them, 24/7.
What’s in the next batch? We’ll have it live the same day.
@vladtenev Q: Robinhood Earn already lends USDG through Morpho. Any plans for borrowing against Stock Tokens in the app? We do that today on Robinhood Chain with @Longbowlend
Hey, following up on the above - also sen @francescoswiss a DM with the details. The warning is showing on https://t.co/22VY1sn5kz in MetaMask (“This site shows signs of phishing or wallet-draining activity”). It’s our new primary domain, set up on completely fresh infrastructure after the registrar-level attack on https://t.co/1wmg0ukfMr, and it has never served anything malicious. Would really appreciate any help getting it cleared, happy to provide whatever you need!

We're aware a number of domains at https://t.co/4CEHuFgI4A were improperly redirected late Friday as part of a plan to access visitors' crypto wallets. The affected domains have been restored. We're investigating and will update this thread as we learn more.
Introducing Longbow Shield.
Liquidations, rebuilt for Stock Tokens.
A standard liquidation can close up to 100% of a loan in one transaction once it crosses the market’s LLTV, at the full penalty. Shield adds a threshold below the LLTV. A position that crosses it is deleveraged in small steps, at a lower penalty, until it’s healthy again.
Live on every Stock Token market. Switch it on in one click. https://t.co/3mk5Nq9lkF
Update: Longbow is live at https://t.co/hOM2cPbwdp.
Last night, a domain hijacking attack hit more than a dozen DeFi protocols at the registrar level. Longbow’s own systems were never breached. Our team took the old domain offline within minutes of being alerted and moved Longbow to new infrastructure.
Longbow’s smart contracts and vaults were never affected and are working as normal.
Stock Tokens put the stock market onchain. Longbow is its credit layer.
JPMorgan, Visa, PayPal, McDonald’s, Disney, Uber, BitMine and GDX are now live as collateral. The giants of traditional finance, borrowable against onchain.
Every Stock Token on Robinhood Chain becomes credit on Longbow. Borrow USDG against all 8 today.
“Now we’re spending a lot of time in how to make Robinhood Chain even bigger, how to support the community, we know we’ve been hearing from a lot of builders that we could be doing more to support the community, and I think you should expect us to really ramp that up.” - @vladtenev on Robinhood Chain
Hmm… Thinking it’s obvious everyone should be more bullish 🤔

What is tokenization, in plain english?
Take something you own in real life, a house or a stock, and put it on a blockchain as a token. That's it.
Candleman's one-line answer from The Draw Ep. 5 sums it up. On Robinhood Chain, tokenized stocks are already live (and will hopefully be available to U.S. traders soon).
Ondo Stocks are now live on Longbow.
Robinhood Chain now holds tokenized stocks from two major issuers, connected by 24/7 liquidity. That’s how a capital market starts.
Wall Street runs on borrowing against stocks. Onchain, that market barely exists yet.
Longbow is building it. Every tokenized stock on Robinhood Chain, from any issuer, becomes collateral. Borrow USDG, keep your stocks, and soon spend it anywhere.
Two issuers today. Every issuer next.
