Hey Research Lab @HeyResearch

@game_for_one The “who leadership follows” part is exactly where it gets interesting. There are probably teams with zero proximity, zero spotlight and still shipping every week. Those are the ones we rather pay attention to.

$100B traded and somehow the small builders are still the hidden liquidity. We’ll keep finding the ones shipping before they become obvious.

Appreciate the recognition, @cryptogle This means a lot because this is exactly what we’ve tried to prove from day one. We didn’t build Hey Research Lab for one good week, one narrative, or one market cycle. We kept shipping through the quiet periods, through the RH bear, and through the moments when there was very little attention to capture. No shortcuts. No disappearing when the market got boring. Just product, data, infrastructure, integrations, and iteration. And honestly, that is the mission of Hey Research Lab itself. We built it to surface the teams that keep building when nobody is watching, and to contribute something useful back to the Robinhood Chain ecosystem by making real builder activity easier to discover, verify, and understand. The goal has never been just to grow Hey Research Lab. If we do this properly, active projects get better visibility, researchers get better signal, and the ecosystem gets a clearer picture of who is actually contributing over time. Because anyone can launch when attention is high. The harder part is staying, improving, and continuing to ship when the market stops caring. That’s the standard we hold ourselves to. And it’s the same standard we want Hey Research Lab to help the Robinhood ecosystem see. We’re still here. We’re still shipping. And we’re still building for the long term.

@TMtheOG If the next RH wave is utility-driven, that’s where HEY should shine. Less narrative, more actual builders with something people can use.

@berdyn And we will be watching for them before they become obvious. Find the runners while they’re still builders.

@MistaMiyagisWay We want the best builders on Robinhood Chain and we're investing in making that happen. If you're building something great, we want to hear from you. More details soon.

Did you know you can now research Robinhood Chain projects directly inside Claude? 🔌 Hey Research Lab is live in @claudeai’s Connectors Directory, so Claude can query our MCP and pull structured, evidence-backed project intelligence without leaving the chat. Try asking: “Is @priors_trade $PRIORS still being built?” Claude can check Hey Research Lab’s data across commits, releases, contracts and shipping history and answers with the evidence: Shipping, last meaningful ship 13 Oct. In this case: Shipping. Last meaningful ship: 13 Oct. The same works for any Robinhood Chain project: → is it still being built? → what did it ship, and when? → who's behind this contract? Agents can query structured, evidence-backed data on projects, builders, repositories, contracts and shipping activity, without leaving their workflow. This is the direction we've been building toward: Hey Research Lab shouldn't only be a platform people visit. It should be an intelligence layer that humans and AI agents query directly. Research Terminal for humans. MCP for agents. Now inside @claudeai claude.ai/directory/hey-…

@RobinhoodCrypto $100B in volume is crazy. Now pls save a little spotlight for the small builders quietly helping build the chain too 😭

Robinhood Social is now live for everyone. When we started with verified trades, we knew it was just the first step. Today you can share your charts, P&L, allocations, follow the people you already trust, and get news and company updates the moment they land. And in the coming weeks, it's all on Legend. I've wanted this for a long time. And now it's live in the app. Go check it out.

@vladtenev Robinhood Social is live for everyone. Now we just need Robinhood Discovery to be live for small builders too. Permissionless to build, still waiting for permissionless attention.

If RH really enters another big cycle, I hope discovery improves with it. There are already small independent builders here shipping in public, long before the next wave arrives. They shouldn’t need to already be big, connected or hand-picked just to get noticed. Some of the best builders on RH may already be here. They just need a fair shot at being discovered.

@TMtheOG Aura farming is currently unmeasured. Shipping isn’t.

@byTheGentleman @vladtenev @rickytheirish If this really lands, the interesting part won’t just be which bags benefit. There are already small teams on RH shipping in public right now. New builders need capital, existing builders need discovery. That second part matters just as much, and it’s exactly why we built HEY.

@RobinhoodApp We keep building, let's go!

We’re extending the Hey Research Lab Thesis Contest for another 3 days. A few people asked for more time to finish their research properly, so we’re keeping submissions open a little longer. Use the extra time to go deeper: → Explore the Terminal → Check the evidence → Build your thesis → Submit your best research New deadline: +3 days from today. Good research takes time. Use it well.

This matters more than people realize. A lot of builders showed up early on Robinhood Chain, kept shipping through the quiet periods, and chose to build before there was much attention around the ecosystem. We built Hey Research Lab partly because we think that history deserves to be visible. Not just who launched, but who stayed, who kept building, and what they actually shipped over time. Good to hear that the early builders matter. We’ll keep doing our part from the infrastructure and research side. Still building on Robinhood Chain.

@justhodlthebag Fair feedback. Summit was a lot of ground to cover, but Robinhood Chain is a big priority for us and we're not going anywhere. The builders who showed up early matter to us. More to share soon.

@rickytheirish If this is real, based. Fund the next wave, sure. Just don’t act like the first wave disappeared. Some of us are already here, still shipping through the bloodbath. New builders need capital. Existing builders need discovery. Both matter.

@JohannKerbrat This is our POV and our stance. Small independent builders can ship great products and still stay invisible. x.com/HeyResearch/st…

100 days is nothing. What matters now is who keeps building through the next 100, and whether those builders actually get discovered. We’re a small independent builder too. We can keep shipping, improving the product and putting everything in public, but discovery still

100 days is nothing. What matters now is who keeps building through the next 100, and whether those builders actually get discovered. We’re a small independent builder too. We can keep shipping, improving the product and putting everything in public, but discovery still matters. Permissionless deployment is only half the story. Small builders need a real path to be seen by Robinhood, its users and eventually its agents too. That’s part of why we built HEY in the first place. If good builders are doing the work quietly, someone has to make that work discoverable. x.com/HeyResearch/st…

Last week, Robinhood Chain turned 100 days old. In the history of TradFi, which took generations to change, that’s a blink of an eye. Onchain, where markets move from idea to existence overnight and assets reach people in milliseconds, a lot can happen — and a lot has.
