CASHCAT has more than doubled over the past week, recovering part of its post launch slide while remaining below its mid July high. Robinhood Chain activity is shifting as total value locked reaches about $774 million and tokenized real world assets rise to $100 million.

Robinhood posted stronger-than-expected second-quarter results and record revenue, but investors focused on a sharp decline in crypto trading revenue. The brokerage also highlighted new blockchain and AI trading products as it expands beyond its core retail trading business.

Robinhood Chain’s real-world assets have climbed to about $70 million as tokenized equities begin trading in larger size. Memecoins and stablecoins still dominate activity, but stock tokens are now becoming a more visible part of the network’s onchain economy.

Robinhood confirmed that CEO Vlad Tenev’s X account was compromised and used to promote a fraudulent memecoin called Vladhood. The incident landed as speculative activity accelerates around Robinhood’s newly launched blockchain network.

CASHCAT has surged into the spotlight on Robinhood Chain, reaching a market value of about $105 million while delivering huge gains for several early wallets. The rally is also exposing the familiar dangers of memecoin trading, with thin liquidity, sharp swings, and late buyers facing steep risk.
