- The chain’s total value locked has tripled from mid-July levels, reaching approximately $312 million

- Despite growth, memecoins and stablecoins continue to control the majority of the chain, with tokenized equities comprising less than 10% of DEX trading volume
When Robinhood Chain debuted, its mission was straightforward: enable traditional equities to operate onchain. However, during its initial launch period, the network resembled a speculative memecoin playground rather than a legitimate stock trading platform.
The landscape is now shifting.
According to DefiLlama data, tokenized real-world assets on Robinhood Chain have exploded to approximately $70 million in total value ā representing roughly a 500% increase over a span of less than 14 days. At launch, RWAs accounted for merely 4% of network activity.
The tokenized version of GameStop is commanding the most attention, processing $26.6 million in daily trading volume. Nvidia follows with $14 million in daily activity, while SpaceX records $6.4 million. Currently, twelve tokenized equities are transacting more than half a million dollars each day, and five have surpassed the million-dollar daily volume mark.
The total value locked on Robinhood Chain has nearly tripled since the middle of July, climbing to roughly $312 million. The network is currently handling over $600 million in decentralized exchange volume on a daily basis, positioning it among the more actively used crypto networks at present.
Memecoin Trading Remains Dominant
Notwithstanding the impressive RWA expansion, the chain’s most popular tokens on DEX Screener continue to be memecoins with names such as “Hoodrat,” “Vladhood,” and “Swole Doge.” While tokenized stocks are available on Uniswap, they remain substantially lower in the volume rankings.
Tokenized equities produce approximately $55 million in daily DEX volume ā representing less than 10% of the chain’s nearly $600 million aggregate total. Stablecoins maintain the largest individual presence, while memecoins continue experiencing heavy trading activity.
The network’s initial breakout star was CASHCAT, a memecoin inspired by Robinhood’s original corporate name. The token skyrocketed over 1,700% after CEO Vlad Tenev followed its social media account, before subsequently collapsing. The asset is currently down approximately 75% from its all-time high.
According to Token Terminal, transaction volume has exceeded 138 million over the past 30 days. Data from the RWA Foundation shows Robinhood Chain’s RWA value reached $323.7 million, marking an extraordinary 11,416% increase over the same 30-day period.
RWA Expansion Accelerates Across Multiple Networks
Robinhood Chain isn’t alone in experiencing significant RWA growth. Avalanche’s tokenized asset value increased 22.6% to reach $2.5 billion. BNB Chain saw a 16.5% rise to $9.2 billion. Cardano’s RWA value expanded 23.1% to $55.3 million.
Ethereum continues to dominate as the largest RWA blockchain with more than $17 billion in onchain value. The total number of RWA holders spanning all blockchain networks has expanded to 1.09 million, up dramatically from approximately 375,000 one year ago.
On the Hyperliquid exchange, RWA markets achieved a milestone by becoming the platform’s largest trading category for the first time ever. Contracts linked to real-world assets produced $25.1 billion in volume between July 13 and July 19, representing 52% of Hyperliquid’s aggregate weekly trading volume.
Latest figures show Robinhood Chain has surpassed 244,000 RWA holders.
In June, tokenized stocks achieved a record $9 billion in transfer volume.
