Arcus

Project Overview

Arcus is a decentralized trading platform on Robinhood Chain, built by the dYdX Labs team. It supports tokenized stocks, crypto assets, commodities, indices, and perpetual contracts. Spot Beta is open to eligible users, and users can trade tokenized stocks such as TSLA and NVDA in the Arcus App. Perps Beta is being opened in batches through the waitlist.

Arcus works with Robinhood Chain / Robinhood Crypto, and Robinhood Crypto has invested in Arcus. The official X account is @arcus_xyz.

Airdrop / Waitlist Status

Arcus does not currently have a public token claim page. The main early actions are connecting to the Arcus App, trading on Spot, joining the Perps Waitlist, adding wallets with historical trading activity, and inviting other qualified traders.

Waitlist ranking takes past on-chain perpetuals volume, RWA trading history, and valid referrals into account. Spot Beta is already open, so users who can access the app can connect a wallet and make small trades first. For Perps, users should complete the waitlist registration and wait for later access batches.

Before You Start

MetaMask or an EVM wallet supported by WalletConnect.
A small amount of ETH for Robinhood Chain transaction fees.
An X account for authorization and following @arcus_xyz.
Optional: wallets with historical perpetuals trading activity. Arcus waitlist ranking may consider previous trading records from dYdX, Hyperliquid, Lighter, and similar platforms.
Arcus restricts access from some regions, including the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. If the page shows that your region is unavailable, follow the official page notice.

Task Walkthrough

Connect to the Arcus App

Open the Arcus App.
Click Connect Wallet.
Choose MetaMask or WalletConnect, then follow the page prompts to connect to Robinhood Chain.
Confirm the wallet connection request when the wallet pop-up appears.
After connecting, check whether your wallet address or account status appears correctly in the top-right area.

Spot Trading Interaction

Go to the Spot page in the Arcus App.
Choose an available tokenized stocks trading pair, such as TSLA, NVDA, or another listed asset.
Complete a small buy or sell order first to confirm that the trade can be submitted normally.
If you plan to keep interacting, you can gradually increase the number of trades or trading volume and keep your own trade records.
After trading, check the order history or account page for the fill status.

Liquidity / Earn Interaction

Check whether the Liquidity or Earn page is open in the Arcus App.
If the page provides a GLP or liquidity pool entry, follow the page prompts to choose an asset and enter an amount.
Before depositing, check the asset, network, fees, and withdrawal rules.
After completing the action, return to the account page to check your position or earnings record.

Join the Perps Waitlist

Open the Arcus Perps Waitlist.
Connect a MetaMask or WalletConnect wallet.
Follow the page prompts to sign and bind your wallet address to the waitlist.
Connect your X account and authorize your current X handle.
Follow @arcus_xyz, then return to the waitlist page for verification.
Once the page shows that you have joined, check your queue position, Top percentage, referral link, and related account information.
If you have more wallets with historical trading activity, add those wallets or a dYdX v4 address to provide more trading history.

Extra Ways to Improve Eligibility

Arcus waitlist ranking is related to historical perpetuals trading volume, RWA-related trading history, and valid referrals. After completing the basic registration, you can generate a referral link on the page and invite other qualified traders. You can also add more eligible wallets so the page can aggregate your trading history.
