Robinhood to Add Stock Token Redemption for Real Shares and Voting Rights

Robinhood's CEO Vlad Tenev announced that the platform will soon add the ability to exchange its Stock Tokens for real shares and grant token holders voting rights. According to Robinhood's crypto lead, Johan Kerbrat, the TVL of these tokens has exceeded $170 million, with cumulative DEX trading volume on the Robinhood Chain nearing $50 billion. Each Robinhood Stock Token is backed 1:1 by a real share held in custody. When a new token is issued, Robinhood buys the corresponding stock. Holders receive the economic equivalent of dividends and corporate actions. Currently, however, token holders cannot directly redeem them for real shares or vote. Kerbrat stated that Robinhood is already working on a 1:1 redemption feature, and voting rights are on the company's roadmap. The company's existing "Say by Robinhood" platform provides the infrastructure for managing shareholder votes. Kerbrat emphasized the tokens' technological composability for developers and highlighted their potential to broaden global access to US equities for eligible clients using just a smartphone.

The volume of non-sports prediction markets reaches $10 billion after Kalshi's departure from Polymarket

The weekly trading volume in non-sports prediction markets on platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket reached a new high of $10 billion, marking the sixth consecutive record week. Kalshi now dominates with 96% of this category, a significant shift from earlier this year when the two were nearly equal. Kalshi's advantage is largely attributed to its distribution through major retail trading apps like Robinhood, Coinbase, Webull, and Moomoo, which provide access to a broad user base. Polymarket lacks similar mainstream channels. A notable portion of Kalshi's reported volume comes from short-term, hourly contracts on assets like Bitcoin, which generate high nominal activity from the same capital. However, market share figures vary depending on data tracking methods, as platforms categorize trades differently. A potential challenge for Kalshi is that Robinhood, a key distribution partner accounting for about a third of its daily flow, is developing its own in-house prediction market platform.

Robinhood CEO Spoke Out Against Issuers' Right to Block Stock Tokenization

The CEO of Robinhood, Vlad Tenev, argues that public companies should not automatically have the right to block the tokenization of their shares if the product does not alter the issuer's rights or obligations. This statement follows criticism from AMC Entertainment's CEO regarding Robinhood's "Stock Tokens," which are linked to AMC and other companies' shares. Tenev emphasizes that while an issuer controls the rights attached to its securities, it should not control every lawful use of those shares after they are sold to investors. He outlines three principles: investor rights to freely transfer owned assets, the issuer's authority over security rights but not all derivative products, and technological neutrality—where the need for issuer consent should depend on the product's impact, not its use of blockchain. Robinhood's Stock Tokens are separate instruments backed 1:1 by underlying shares, providing economic exposure without changing the company's capitalization, shareholder rights, or official registry. Tenev believes this model allows for scaling the product across jurisdictions without needing each issuer's approval, promoting broader global access to U.S. stocks. The debate occurs amid rapid growth in the tokenized assets sector.

From Crypto-Stock Pairing to Pooling Everything: Dissecting the Playbook of Robinhood Chain's New Platform $CME

From token-stock pairing to pairing everything: How Robinhood Chain's new platform $CME works. Following a brief lull, liquidity on Robinhood Chain is shifting towards a new narrative beyond the previous 'token-stock pairing' trend led by memecoins like Pons. The new launchpad, Commodity Market Exchange (CME), has seen its token surge to a $15M market cap by pioneering an abstract "token-commodity pairing" model. CME allows memecoins to be paired against 94 synthetic ERC-20 tokens representing real-world commodities (e.g., gold, crude oil, milk) and non-standard consumer goods (e.g., Big Macs, CS2 skins, Pokémon cards). These synthetic assets are not backed by physical holdings. Instead, the platform uses a lightweight system where oracle feeds update prices roughly every 60 seconds, and keeper bots manage single-sided Uniswap pools against a stablecoin (USDG). The platform's aggressive tokenomics drive its growth: 40% of trading fees are auto-distributed to $CME holders as the corresponding commodity tokens every 15 minutes; 30% is used for permanent buyback-and-burn of $CME; and 0% goes to creators, removing developer profit-sharing. New tokens launch directly into Uniswap v4 pools from genesis. While this experiment creates a deep, on-chain synthetic commodity network fueled by meme culture and speculation, it carries risks like oracle dependency and potential de-pegging during volatility. Nevertheless, it marks a new phase of asset issuance on Robinhood Chain.

Robinhood's Crypto Trading Volume Rose 61% in August But Remains 38% Below Year-Ago Level

Robinhood's cryptocurrency trading volume surged by 61% in August compared to July, reaching $17.5 billion. Despite this monthly growth, the figure remains 38% lower than it was a year ago. The trading volume on the recently acquired exchange Bitstamp accounted for $10.1 billion, growing 53% month-on-month but down 30% year-on-year. Trading volume on the Robinhood app itself was $7.4 billion, a 72% increase from July but a 46% decline compared to August 2025. Bitstamp, acquired in June 2025, contributed a larger share of Robinhood's total crypto volume in the second quarter, accounting for $22 billion of the company's $40 billion total crypto volume, compared to $18 billion from the Robinhood app. However, Robinhood's transaction-based cryptocurrency revenue for Q2 fell 38% year-on-year to $100 million. This decline was more than offset by growth in event contracts, options, and equities trading, helping the broker report record quarterly revenue and profit. The August report notes that trading volume on the Robinhood Chain was not included in these metrics.

Robinhood's crypto trading volume rose 61% in August, but remained 38% below year-ago level

Robinhood's cryptocurrency trading volume reached $17.5 billion in August 2026, marking a 61% increase from July. However, this figure remained 38% below the level from August 2025. The company's monthly report detailed that $10.1 billion of the total volume came from the Bitstamp exchange, which it acquired in June 2025, while $7.4 billion came from the Robinhood app itself. Bitstamp's volume grew 53% month-over-month but fell 30% year-over-year. The Robinhood app's volume saw a 72% monthly increase but a 46% annual decline. In the second quarter of 2026, Bitstamp contributed $22 billion of Robinhood's total $40 billion crypto volume, with the app contributing $18 billion. Despite the monthly volume growth, Robinhood's transaction-based revenue from crypto fell 38% year-over-year in Q2 to $100 million. The decline was offset by growth in event contracts, options, and equities trading, leading to record quarterly revenue and profit for the broker. The report noted that trading volume on the Robinhood Chain was not included in these metrics.

Robinhood’s crypto volume increases 61% in August, still down 38% YoY

Robinhood's crypto trading volume surged 61% month-on-month to $17.5 billion in August 2026, though it remained 38% lower than the same period a year prior. The volume was split between the recently acquired Bitstamp exchange ($10.1 billion, up 53% MoM but down 30% YoY) and the Robinhood app ($7.4 billion, up 72% MoM but down 46% from August 2025). This trend mirrored Q2, where Bitstamp drove the majority of Robinhood's $40 billion total crypto volume. Despite the crypto volume increase, Robinhood's Q2 crypto transaction revenue fell 38% year-on-year to $100 million, a decline offset by growth in other segments like event contracts and options. The reported figures exclude volume from the Robinhood Chain.

Coinbase Renamed Base App Back to Coinbase Wallet

Coinbase has rebranded its "Base App" back to "Coinbase Wallet." According to product lead Ryan Kass, the name change better reflects the app's role as Coinbase's non-custodial gateway to a universal marketplace for trading any asset. Originally conceived as a "super-app" integrating social features, payments, and mini-apps—including creator and content tokens—the social experiment did not achieve the expected sustainable economic model. CEO Brian Armstrong and Base creator Jesse Pollack acknowledged this shift, with Pollack stating he was wrong in believing social products alone would bring a billion users to crypto. The focus has now pivoted squarely to trading. The revamped Coinbase Wallet has expanded its supported networks to include competing chains like Robinhood Chain, aiming to offer users asset choice regardless of platform rivalry. Kass highlighted the cyclical nature of trader interest between networks like Robinhood Chain and Base, expressing confidence that Coinbase Wallet will be ready when attention returns to Base. The wallet will also serve as a testing ground for new assets and features before they potentially reach Coinbase's main retail app. While social functionalities aren't entirely ruled out, future development will be user-driven rather than a core product foundation.

CEO Robinhood stated that companies cannot control the tokenization of their shares

The CEO of Robinhood, Vlad Tenev, has stated that public companies cannot control all financial products created based on their stocks, responding to criticism from AMC Entertainment's CEO, Adam Aron. The dispute centers on Robinhood's "Stock Tokens," including one tied to AMC shares, which Aron argues creates a parallel market without the company's consent. Tenev countered that while an issuer controls the rights of its shares, it does not control third-party instruments using those shares as an underlying asset. He compared the tokens to ADRs, ETFs, and structured products. Robinhood's Stock Tokens are debt securities backed 1:1 by actual shares, providing economic exposure and dividends but no voting rights. The legal issuer is Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited. Aron demanded a halt to trading AMC-linked tokens and threatened legal action and SEC involvement, calling the market "quasi-counterfeit." The conflict sparked the creation of a memecoin tied to the tokenized AMC, which saw a massive price surge. Industry experts noted the distinction between true on-chain stock tokenization and derivative tracking instruments, highlighting risks like price discrepancies on illiquid on-chain markets. Tenev has previously advocated for stock tokenization, citing benefits like near-real-time settlement and 24/7 trading.

Bernstein Bullish on Robinhood: Two Months to Top the Public Chain Ranks, 90% of Fees Go to HOOD

Bernstein is bullish on Robinhood's new blockchain, which has surged to become a top chain by transaction count within two months of its July 2026 launch. The Robinhood Chain, an Arbitrum-based Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 network, facilitates tokenized trading of stocks, ETFs, and other real-world assets. It has quickly amassed over $1.5B in TVL and generated $39M in net fees, with roughly 90% of that revenue accruing to HOOD. For a recent 15-day period, its fees even ranked first among all blockchains. Growth is primarily driven by a unique flywheel: meme coin trading attracts initial liquidity and users, which in turn fuels activity for tokenized stocks. The value of these on-chain stocks and ETFs grew 14x in two months to $140M, and they show a high turnover rate, being actively used in DeFi protocols. While fees have spiked recently—partly tied to meme coin speculation—the chain is building a more diversified ecosystem with significant capital in lending and yield products. Bernstein maintains an "Outperform" rating and a $160 price target for HOOD, highlighting the chain's potential to transform Robinhood from a retail broker into a high-margin, 24/7 global financial infrastructure platform. Key future challenges include sustaining growth beyond speculative trading and navigating the regulatory landscape for tokenized real-world assets.
