This is a debt security, not a share
NU is a tokenized debt security issued by Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited, referencing ISIN KYG6683N1034. It gives economic exposure to a referenced security but does not give the token holder legal or beneficial ownership of the underlying shares — that's a real, structural difference from owning the stock through a brokerage, not a technicality. Read the issuer's own product page for the current terms.
Then add token-specific layers
Holding NU means trusting Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited as a counterparty for as long as you hold the token — separate from whatever happens to the referenced company's actual share price. A self-custody wallet adds private-key loss and mistaken-transfer risk. An on-chain swap adds liquidity, spread, slippage and smart-contract risk. Robinhood Chain itself, being a newer network, carries its own operational and liquidity risk that an established exchange doesn't.
What to verify
Read the issuer's current restrictions, check eligibility for your location, match the full contract address (0x408c14038a04f7bD235329E26d2bf569ee20e250) against the explorer, and compare the executable quote rather than the displayed midpoint. Open the NU profile for the asset preview and explorer link. This is a risk checklist, not personalized financial advice.
