> **Video Content:** The video begins with a split-screen interview on "Unchained" featuring Laura Shin (Founder) and Johann Kerbrat (SVP at Robinhood, GM of Crypto), discussing USDG as the backbone. The view then switches to a single shot of Laura Shin asking Kerbrat why he chose to build on USDG rather than other stablecoins. From there, the video cuts to a single shot of Johann Kerbrat responding, explaining that Robinhood Chain plans to support multiple assets including USDC, but emphasizes the importance of redundancy and minimizing single points of failure. He highlights USDG as an interesting stable due to its consortium-based global network, contrasting it with more centralized alternatives. On-screen text includes the show branding "Unchained on Air," the title "USDG AS THE BACKBONE," the date "LIVE JULY 16, 2026," sponsor logos (Cape, Fidelity), and a ticker displaying various crypto prices and percentage changes throughout.

> "Johann Kerbrat explains why Robinhood Chain chose USDG over USDC or Tether

"We do plan to support multiple assets including USDC and others on the chain. For us the question of point of failure is something that we always care about, so most of ours are built with redundancies,"

> **Video Content:** The video is a split-screen interview from the "UNCHAINED" show titled "USDG AS THE BACKBONE," featuring host Laura Shin (Founder | Unchained) and guest Johann Kerbrat (SVP | Robinhood, GM | Crypto). Subtitles display Kerbrat responding to a question about Robinhood's push into USDG as a founding member of the Global Dollar Network, explaining that the reserve yield is accessible to any network participant, not just founders. In the final frames, the scene transitions to a full-screen shot of Kerbrat as he continues elaborating on the benefits and opportunities for network members. On-screen tickers display various cryptocurrency prices and percentage changes (e.g., BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL, ZEC, ENA, OP, ARB, UNI, AAVE) at the bottom throughout the clip.
