According to DefiLlama, the 24‑hour volume rose 6.2 % from the previous day, 131.1 % over the last seven days and 517.4 % over the last 30 days.

Pons Dominates Launchpad Fees

The launchpad Pons, which operates exclusively on Robinhood Chain, collected $4.89 million in fees on August 31, representing 63.9 % of the $7.65 million paid to launchpads across crypto that day. By comparison, Solana‑based pump.fun earned $1.72 million (22.5 %). Over the past seven days Pons generated $21.04 million in fees, and $31.03 million over the last 30 days.

Uniswap V4 Activity

Robinhood Chain now hosts the majority of Uniswap V4 trading, handling $720.3 million in volume over 24 hours—about 51 % of total Uniswap V4 activity across all chains. Uniswap V3 added $486.5 million, together accounting for 81 % of the chain’s DEX volume.

Revenue and Gas Fees

Robinhood itself does not receive the application fees; it earns transaction gas fees, which amounted to $2.13 million over the last 24 hours. Net chain revenue (after Ethereum L1 execution costs and the 10 % fee share owed under the Arbitrum Expansion Program) was $1.92 million, split 8 % to the Arbitrum DAO treasury and 2 % to development funding.
