Volume then exploded to $55.99 billion in September, nearly three times August\u2019s total. October has added roughly $14.25 billion through the first two weeks.<\/p>\n<h2>Outpacing Base and Arbitrum One<\/h2>\n<p>Over the past 30 days, Robinhood Chain <a href=\"https:\/\/defillama.com\/dexs\/chains\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">processed about $38.62 billion in DEX volume<\/a>, compared with $30.46 billion on Base and $5.65 billion on Arbitrum One. Solana still leads by a wide margin at $71.46 billion, but few expected a 3.5-month-old network to pass Coinbase\u2019s flagship L2 this quickly.<\/p>\n<p>Most of that activity runs through Uniswap, with the <a href=\"https:\/\/defillama.com\/dexs\/chain\/robinhood-chain\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">decentralized exchange\u2019s V3 offering accounting<\/a> for about $46.94 billion of the chain\u2019s all-time volume and Uniswap V4 for another $36.35 billion, roughly three-quarters of the total combined. Trading bot GMGN comes next with about $6.53 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The presence of a memecoin trading bot that high on the list is telling and a recent analysis found that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bit.com\/knowledge-hub\/robinhood-chain-vs-solana-base-memecoin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">more than 80%<\/a> of cumulative DEX volume through late July was memecoin speculation rather than the tokenized stocks Robinhood built the chain to carry.<\/p>\n<p>Other metrics have grown alongside the trading as Robinhood Chain\u2019s total value locked (TVL) sits at about <a href=\"https:\/\/defillama.com\/chain\/robinhood-chain\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">$1.06 billion<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, a Market Periodical breakdown puts its stablecoin market cap above $1 billion, its <a href=\"https:\/\/themarketperiodical.com\/2026\/10\/14\/robinhood-stock-forecast\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">real-world asset holdings<\/a> above $324 million and its total fees above $46 million. Under its Arbitrum license, the chain sends 10% of protocol net revenue back to the Arbitrum ecosystem. Of that, 8% goes to the Arbitrumdao treasury and 2% to the Arbitrum Developer Guild.<\/p>\n<h2>The Catch Robinhood Investors Will Watch<\/h2>\n<p>Some of September\u2019s surge came with a subsidy as Robinhood covered gas costs for qualifying swaps made through Robinhood Wallet under an offer that ran until 11:59 p.m. EST on Sept. 29. October\u2019s pace has cooled since that offer ended and the chain is averaging roughly $1.1 billion a day this month, versus about $1.87 billion a day in September.<\/p>\n<p>That slowdown will matter for Robinhood\u2019s stock, especially since HOOD shares recently traded near $109.70, about 14% below their September high, while analysts\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/themarketperiodical.com\/2026\/10\/14\/robinhood-stock-forecast\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">average price target<\/a> sits around $130. The chain is one part of a wider crypto push that also saw <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/featured\/robinhood-puts-25m-into-bitcoin-citing-belief-in-cryptos-future\/\">Robinhood put $25 million into bitcoin<\/a> last week.<\/p>\n<p>The next real test arrives in late October and Robinhood\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/decrypt.co\/resources\/what-robinhood-chain-ethereum-layer-2-network-tokenized-stocks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">third-quarter results<\/a> will be the first to cover a full quarter of mainnet operation, giving investors their first look at how much of that $100 billion turns into revenue.<\/p>\n<div class=\"not-prose my-3 lg:my-4\">\n<div class=\"overflow-hidden rounded-lg !bg-[#E8EDFA] p-[9px] hidden md:flex md:flex-row md:gap-3 lg:hidden\"><a aria-hidden=\"true\" tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"relative size-[150px] min-w-[150px] shrink-0 overflow-hidden rounded-[15px]\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/robinhood-puts-25m-into-bitcoin-citing-belief-in-cryptos-future\/\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"absolute left-2 top-2\"><img alt=\"Bitcoin.com News\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"28\" height=\"28\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"size-7\" style=\"color:transparent\" srcset=\"\/_next\/image\/?url=%2Fimages%2Fuploads%2Fbitcoin_news_newlogo.svg&amp;w=32&amp;q=75 1x, \/_next\/image\/?url=%2Fimages%2Fuploads%2Fbitcoin_news_newlogo.svg&amp;w=64&amp;q=75 2x\" src=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/_next\/image\/?url=%2Fimages%2Fuploads%2Fbitcoin_news_newlogo.svg&amp;w=64&amp;q=75\"\/><\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"overflow-hidden rounded-lg !bg-[#E8EDFA] p-[9px] hidden lg:flex lg:flex-row lg:gap-4\"><a aria-hidden=\"true\" tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"relative size-[150px] min-w-[150px] shrink-0 overflow-hidden rounded-[15px]\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/robinhood-puts-25m-into-bitcoin-citing-belief-in-cryptos-future\/\"><img alt=\"Robinhood Puts $25M Into Bitcoin, Citing Belief in Crypto\u2019s Future\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"object-cover\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent\" sizes=\"150px\" srcset=\"\/_next\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.news.bitcoin.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F10%2Frobinhood-150x150.jpg&amp;w=32&amp;q=75 32w, \/_next\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.news.bitcoin.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F10%2Frobinhood-150x150.jpg&amp;w=48&amp;q=75 48w, \/_next\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.news.bitcoin.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F10%2Frobinhood-150x150.jpg&amp;w=64&amp;q=75 64w, \/_next\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.news.bitcoin.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F10%2Frobinhood-150x150.jpg&amp;w=128&amp;q=75 128w, \/_next\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.news.bitcoin.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F10%2Frobinhood-150x150.jpg&amp;w=256&amp;q=75 256w, \/_next\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.news.bitcoin.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F10%2Frobinhood-150x150.jpg&amp;w=384&amp;q=75 384w, \/_next\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.news.bitcoin.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F10%2Frobinhood-150x150.jpg&amp;w=640&amp;q=75 640w, \/_next\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.news.bitcoin.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F10%2Frobinhood-150x150.jpg&amp;w=828&amp;q=75 828w, \/_next\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.news.bitcoin.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F10%2Frobinhood-150x150.jpg&amp;w=1080&amp;q=75 1080w, \/_next\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.news.bitcoin.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F10%2Frobinhood-150x150.jpg&amp;w=1200&amp;q=75 1200w, \/_next\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.news.bitcoin.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F10%2Frobinhood-150x150.jpg&amp;w=1920&amp;q=75 1920w\" src=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/_next\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.news.bitcoin.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F10%2Frobinhood-150x150.jpg&amp;w=1920&amp;q=75\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"absolute left-2 top-2\"><img alt=\"Bitcoin.com News\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"28\" height=\"28\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"size-7\" style=\"color:transparent\" srcset=\"\/_next\/image\/?url=%2Fimages%2Fuploads%2Fbitcoin_news_newlogo.svg&amp;w=32&amp;q=75 1x, \/_next\/image\/?url=%2Fimages%2Fuploads%2Fbitcoin_news_newlogo.svg&amp;w=64&amp;q=75 2x\" src=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/_next\/image\/?url=%2Fimages%2Fuploads%2Fbitcoin_news_newlogo.svg&amp;w=64&amp;q=75\"\/><\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"flex min-w-0 flex-1 flex-col justify-center gap-2\">\n<p class=\"m-0 line-clamp-2 text-base leading-[1.3] !text-[#67656E]\">Robinhood is adding bitcoin to its corporate assets, extending its exposure beyond the cryptocurrency services it offers customers.
