Robinhood Chain DEX Volume Surges to $690M in 24 Hours, Driven by Memecoin Trading

Jul 9, 2026

Robinhood Chain's decentralized exchange volume surged past $690 million in 24 hours, driven by a retail trading frenzy. The newly launched Ethereum Layer-2 network saw a 10x volume spike on July 8, 2026, led by the CASHCAT memecoin, which surpassed a $100 million market cap. Supported by a Pump.fun integration allowing direct SOL trading, the network drew 200,000 active addresses, though questions remain on whether these users will transition to the chain's core real-world asset market.
