Arbitrum DAO announced its first-half revenue report, totaling US$6.2 million; July was the first month Robinhood Chain was launched on the mainnet, and the licensing fee for that month accounted for 35% of DAO revenue.
$6.2 million, this is the total revenue of Arbitrum DAO in the first half of this year. In addition to this number, there is a detail in July that is more worth noting: licensing fees accounted for 35% of the DAO’s revenue that month.
This July happens to be the first month that Robinhood Chain goes online on the mainnet.
If you spread out the timeline, you will find that these are two sets of figures on different scales - US$6.2 million is the accumulation in half a year, and 35% is the income structure in a single month. But put the two together, they point to the same thing: after Robinhood Chain went online, it immediately became an important piece of the puzzle in DAO’s income source, and it was done in less than a month at the poker table.
For those who have been paying attention to the financial situation of Arbitrum DAO for a long time, the licensing fee itself is not a new term, but a new chain can contribute more than one-third of the monthly revenue as soon as it is launched on the main network. This speed is worth remembering. As for whether this revenue momentum can continue into the second half of the year, the current public materials do not provide dismantling figures for subsequent months.
