This means the tokenized-equity book remains tiny in a chain that clears billions of dollars in weekly trading volume.

Key facts

Summary

Robinhood Chain, an Ethereum layer-2 launched July 1 to host tokenized stocks, has quickly become one of crypto’s busiest new networks, with about $312 million in total value locked and 3.6 million daily transactions. Despite Robinhood’s pitch of a regulated venue for tokenized real-world assets, those assets account for only about $12.8 million on the chain, while memecoins like CASHCAT and stablecoins dominate activity and market value. The chain’s future hinges on whether speculative memecoin traders convert into users of its tokenized equity and real-world asset offerings. Robinhood Chain, the blockchain network built by the popular trading app to power tokenized stocks, has become one of the busiest new chains in crypto. A cat-themed token called CASHCAT, named after Robinhood's former mascot before the company rebranded, has surged 2,158% over the past 7 days, and the memecoin has a $156 million market cap.
