Uniswap Captures 99% of Tokenized Stock Liquidity on Robinhood Chain as RWA Market Reaches $70M
Robinhood didn’t spend years building a blockchain only to become another home for memecoins. Less than a month after launch, its tokenized stock market is beginning to look exactly as intended, and Uniswap is sitting at the center of almost every trade. According to onchain data, Uniswap now powers virtually the entire decentralized market for Robinhood’s tokenized equities. Version 4 alone accounts for roughly 73% of tokenized stock liquidity on Robinhood Chain, while Uniswap V3 holds another 26%, giving the protocol a combined market share of about 99% of all DEX liquidity supporting the new asset class.

$ETH was trading around $2,435 late Saturday at 5 p.m. EDT after cooling from the intraday price peak. The pullback followed a violent run from the mid-$1,800s to low-$1,900s, where ethereum had spent much of mid-August pinned inside a tight range. Its share of the broader crypto market, known as dominance, is now closing in on 11%. Ethereum Blasts Out of Its Range The breakout caught fire on Aug. 19, when $ETH jumped about 17.5%, opening near $1,917 and closing above $2,250. Buyers kept pressing over the next two sessions, driving the price as high as $2,546.78 on Binance. Daily…
Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) shareholders holding 100 shares of the firm are expected to receive $25 when the company’s next quarterly dividend is paid. The payment follows Nvidia’s historic dividend increase announced in May 2026, when the semiconductor giant raised its quarterly payout from $0.01 to $0.25 per share, representing a 2,400% increase. The upcoming distribution scheduled for October 2, 2026 is expected to match the previous payment made on June 26, 2026. At the current quarterly rate, investors holding 100 NVDA shares will earn $100 annually if Nvidia maintains its dividend policy over the next four quarters. Notably, Nvidia offers…
Buying a crypto presale is often very different from purchasing established coins on centralized exchanges. Investors who mainly hold $XRP or Litecoin are used to logging into an exchange, placing an order, and receiving tokens instantly. Presales introduce a different process that involves Web3 wallets, blockchain networks, and direct interaction with a project’s platform. For newcomers, that can feel unfamiliar at first. This guide explains how investors can participate in the MemeToro ($MT) presale while also covering the basics that every first-time DeFi user should understand. Why $XRP and Litecoin Holders Are Exploring Presales Both $XRP and Litecoin have experienced…
Kalshi has blocked customers in Washington while asking a King County judge to reconsider an injunction restricting its prediction markets. The Aug. 21 motion argues that Washington gave competing exchange North American Derivatives Exchange, operating as OG, more favorable treatment. Kalshi and OG are both designated contract markets regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. Judge John McHale is scheduled to consider Kalshi’s request on Sept. 2 without oral argument. The existing restrictions remain active while that request is pending. Kalshi implemented Washington geofencing The amended preliminary injunction required Kalshi to install IP address and residency-based controls by Aug. 19.…
Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has seen its Bitcoin reserves climb to the highest level in approximately six months, according to on-chain data from CryptoQuant. The increase marks a notable shift from a period when $BTC supply on the exchange had been relatively constrained. On-Chain Data Reveals Shift in Exchange Supply CryptoQuant contributor ArabxChain highlighted the development, noting that Binance’s Bitcoin holdings have risen to levels not seen since February. The metric, which tracks the total amount of Bitcoin held in exchange wallets, is closely watched by traders as an indicator of potential selling pressure. When…
Ether (EHT) has outperformed bitcoin $BTC$77,451.96 over two months and the trend looks set to continue, with a “golden cross” having recently formed on the $ETH/$BTC ratio. The crossover is identified when an asset’s rolling 50-day average price surpasses its 200-day average. It’s said to reflect a short-term trend outperforming the longer-term trajectory, with the potential to evolve into a full-blown bull run. The latest crossover in the $ETH/$BTC ratio suggests just that. Its appearance comes after an already buoyant stretch for ether, which has been outperforming bitcoin since early June. The pair has rallied 25% since the June 6…
Druckenmiller’s Puts Over $80 Million Behind Digital Assets Stock Picks Stanley Druckenmiller, the legendary investor behind Duquesne Family Office, is warming up to the digital assets industry. According to the 13F Form filed in August 2026 corresponding to the investment firm’s Q2 holdings, Duquesne reported a sizable position in Bitdeer Technologies Group (BTDR), a global high-performance computing company that manufactures cryptocurrency mining hardware and operates data centers in the U.S. and internationally. Druckenmiller built this position in Q2, incorporating 4.1 million shares valued at over $64.7 million at an average purchase price of $12.26. Bitdeer became one of the largest…
Staking has become one of the most common ways for crypto investors to earn passive rewards, but not every staking model works the same way. Established blockchain networks like Ethereum and Solana generate rewards by helping secure their blockchains, while many newer projects introduce staking as part of a broader ecosystem designed to encourage participation before and after launch. MemeToro ($MT) follows the second approach. Its staking program offers 35% APY, making it noticeably different from traditional Layer-1 staking. Understanding where those rewards come from helps explain why comparing the three systems requires more than simply looking at headline percentages.…
Gillibrand Makes Crypto Ethics a Condition for Her Vote Congress should bar presidents, their spouses, and senior officials from issuing, sponsoring, or profiting from cryptocurrency while in office, U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) said on Aug. 23. Her demand for an enforceable prohibition made ethics language a condition for supporting digital asset market structure legislation. The New York Democrat’s record supports regulated digital asset markets rather than opposing cryptocurrency itself. She has co-authored bipartisan crypto legislation and advocated federal rules combining responsible innovation, consumer protections, anti-money laundering requirements, and regulatory enforcement. Her earlier proposal covering elected officials and their spouses…
