The Block reported that Arbitrum DAO generated a total revenue of $6.19 million through four revenue streams in the first half of the year, achieving a gross profit margin of over 97%. License fees from Robinhood Chain, which launched its mainnet on July 1st, are acting as a major contributor, accelerating performance improvement in the third quarter. Robinhood Chain is a chain settled outside Arbitrum and is subject to licensing regulations that return 10% of its net protocol revenue to the Arbitrum ecosystem. In July, its first month of operation, it generated $360,000 solely from license fees, accounting for 35% of Arbitrum DAO's total July revenue. Brendan Ma, Head of Investment Strategy at the Arbitrum Foundation, stated, "Given the performance trends in July, total revenue for Q3 is expected to increase by more than 40% compared to Q2."
