Robinhood built a layer-2 network for tokenized real-world assets (RWA). Recent activity shows a different mix. According to data from Dune, Cash Cat (CASHCAT) ranks first among the top traded tokens on the network.

The meme coin has logged $824.89 million in lifetime volume across 1.37 million trades. Tokenized assets are growing, too, though rarely on their own.

Daily RWA trading peaked at $61.1 million on July 23. Meme coin and tokenized stock pairs supplied $46.1 million, or about 75%.

The chain’s tokenized asset base also grew. The total RWA value on the chain climbed to $25.4 million on July 24, the highest since launch. Tokenized stocks made up $21.9 million.

Prediction Markets Sit Off the Chain

As meme coin and RWA trading grow, Robinhood is also pushing deeper into prediction markets in its app. The Journal reported that Robinhood is in talks with Crypto.com. A partnership would let users trade the exchange’s yes-or-no contracts on Robinhood’s trading platform.

Robinhood began carrying Kalshi contracts in early 2025. Its partners also include ForecastEx, owned by Interactive Brokers, and Rothera. Robinhood owns a significant stake in Rothera through a joint venture with Susquehanna and appears to have invested around $38 million.

Robinhood said it will keep working with several exchanges. No agreement with Crypto.com has been reached, and the talks may not produce one.
