4:00 PM ET
The bell rings
Wall Street freezes. The last official close becomes the reference price for every gap market. On Robinhood Chain, Stock Tokens keep printing, the night session opens.
The NYSE trades 6.5 hours a day. Stock Tokens on Robinhood Chain trade all 24. Nighthood is the night session, take a position on the opening gap, earn overnight yield, and read the tape while the suits sleep.
81% of the week, the official price is frozen. That's the market we trade.

The night tape, live vs last Wall St close
The thesis
Earnings drop after the bell. Wars start on weekends. The Fed leaks on Sunday. Price discovery doesn't stop when the suits go home, it just used to happen without you.

9:30 AM ET
Wall Street reopens and reality prints. Positions settle against the official opening print delivered by Chainlink. One number, no committees, no disputes. The bell is the judge.

Preview the vaultsWhy Robinhood Chain
On July 1, 2026, Robinhood put the stock market on-chain: an Ethereum L2 where tokenized equities trade around the clock in 120+ countries. It created something that has never existed, a liquid, public price for stocks while the primary market sleeps.
Nighthood is the first protocol built entirely for that gap. Not a DEX fork, not a lending clone, a native product for the one thing this chain does that nothing else on earth does.
01100ms blocks
Robinhood Chain is an Arbitrum-stack L2 with 100 millisecond block times. Fast enough for a tape that never stops.
02Native Stock Tokens
Tokenized equities (NVDA, AAPL, HOOD…) are first-class citizens, tradable 24/7 and usable as collateral across DeFi.
03Chainlink settlement
Official opens and closes come from Chainlink, the chain's canonical oracle. Gaps settle against the real 9:30 print.
04Ethereum security
The chain settles to Ethereum. Uniswap, Morpho and 1inch were live on day one. Nighthood composes with all of them.
FAQ
When Wall Street closes at 4:00 PM ET, a stock's official price freezes, but news doesn't. A gap market lets you take a position on where the stock will officially reopen at 9:30 AM: above the last close (gap up) or below it (gap down). At the opening bell, the market settles against the official print delivered by Chainlink, and winners are paid on-chain.
Because it's the only chain where tokenized real equities trade natively, 24/7, with official reference prices from Chainlink as the canonical oracle. The night price of NVDA on Robinhood Chain is real, liquid price discovery, not a synthetic feed. Nighthood turns the spread between that price and the frozen Wall Street close into a tradable market.
Yes, forever. The terminal, live session clock, countdown to the bell, and every tracked Stock Token's premium or discount vs the official close, is a public good. It's how you learn to read the night before you trade it.
Passive strategies for people who'd rather sleep. The Overnight vault market-makes Stock Token pairs during the night session and collects the spread. The Gap Harvester systematically fades extreme weekend gaps, a strategy documented in equities for decades, now executable on-chain. Deposits open soon.
The terminal is live now. Gap markets and vaults ship with our settlement contracts, currently in audit, marked 'Soon' across the site. Follow @Nighthoodxyz for the exact date; the night is patient.
It's sharper than that. Prediction markets ask vague questions with arguable outcomes. A gap settles against one number, the official opening print of a real stock, published on-chain by the chain's own oracle infrastructure. No resolution committees, no disputes. The bell is the judge.
