DeFi analyst Jordi in Cryptoland posted on X stating that historical data shows Uniswap's activation of the Fee Switch did not weaken its competitiveness—its market share not only held steady but even increased. Before the fee switch was turned on, Uniswap accounted for 21% of total DEX trading volume; immediately after the switch was flipped, its share remained essentially flat; now, with the onboarding of the Robinhood channel, its share has risen to 31%.Today, Uniswap's value capture capability is also stronger. Protocol monthly revenue started from zero and has now stabilized at around $7.2 million. Compared to its multi-billion-dollar valuation, this figure is not particularly impressive (the P/E ratio remains above 40x), but with market share increasing by 10 percentage points while monthly revenue jumped from zero to $7.2 million, this is absolutely a massive milestone.

Odaily News: Robinhood co-founder Vlad Tenev published a long-form article this morning outlining Robinhood's vision of enabling global investors (especially non-U.S. users) to gain exposure to U.S. stocks and ETFs through blockchain, and focused on the question of whether issuers need to consent to their stocks being tokenized.Vlad Tenev argues that publicly traded company shares are freely transferable personal property, and owners should have the right to decide how to hold and use them. The company that issues the stock controls the rights attached to the securities it issues, but it does not control all third-party financial products built around those securities, and there is already precedent for this in financial markets: unsponsored ADRs, options, and structured products. Therefore, if a product changes the rights of the underlying shares, replaces the company's official shareholder register, or imposes new obligations on the company/transfer agent, then issuer involvement is required. If it merely creates an independent financial instrument that holds or references freely transferable shares on a 1:1 basis, without changing the issuer's rights, obligations, or authoritative shareholder records, then issuer consent is not required.Robinhood adopts a model of third-party issuance of independent instruments backed 1:1 by underlying shares. Putting stocks on-chain should not grant issuers veto rights they did not previously have, nor should it prevent new investors from entering simply because issuers do not understand new technology.Last week, AMC's CEO criticized the "synthetic equity market" established by Robinhood as potentially decoupling stock token trading from listed companies' financing arrangements, and demanded that Vlad Tenev and Robinhood voluntarily stop AMC stock token trading. The related debate sparked heated discussion in both the crypto and stock communities.
Odaily News – Crypto trader Rune (@RuneCrypto_) posted on X, stating that Pump.fun holds over $2 billion in cash, with a valuation of approximately $4.4 billion, making it one of the most influential platforms in the Meme coin market this cycle. However, since launching the Bonding Curve model, its subsequent product expansion has largely been a response to market demand already validated by other teams.Rune cited examples, noting that after Axiom's rise, Pump acquired Padre and renamed it Terminal; after fomo emerged, Pump added social features to compete for KOLs; and now that products combining Meme coins with equity-related assets have appeared on BNB Chain, Robinhood, Stonks, and Base, Pump has launched a similar MemeStocks feature.Rune stated that this strategy is not entirely ineffective—for instance, Padre's market share rose from roughly 2% to 10% after its acquisition. However, as a leading platform with substantial capital and resources, Pump should focus more on creating unvalidated new products rather than continuously replicating existing models. Otherwise, it may weaken the incentive for smaller teams to pursue product innovation, ultimately slowing the industry's overall pace of development.
According to CoinDesk, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has submitted two proposed rules to the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB): one would formally classify event contracts traded on platforms such as Kalshi, Polymarket, Crypto.com, and Robinhood under the regulatory definition of "swaps"; the other would explicitly exclude casino-style gambling products from the swaps category. This move aims to respond to recent federal court rulings—the Sixth and Eighth Circuits both ruled that Kalshi's sports-related contracts do not qualify as swaps and should be subject to state gambling regulations, while the Third Circuit upheld the CFTC's jurisdiction over prediction markets. With conflicting rulings across the circuits, the matter may ultimately need to be resolved by the U.S. Supreme Court. Currently, the CFTC comprises only one commissioner, Chair Mike Selig, with all related decisions made solely by him.
According to on-chain analyst Wazz (@WazzCrypto), an organized serial rug pull and fund-draining syndicate operates on the Robinhood blockchain. The group has been linked to 53 token launches in the past two months, with directly trackable extracted funds reaching $18.43 million, though the actual amount is likely higher. The syndicate's modus operandi is highly systematic: funds raised from each launch are routed to the deployment wallet of the next launch within seconds, forming a continuous funding pipeline. Each issuance is sniped via 70–200 bundled wallets to secure over 70% of the supply, primarily launched on the Pons V2 platform. Additionally, the group generates hype through "fake launches" before official drops to preemptively harvest market sentiment, only revealing the real contract address afterward to maximize extraction profits. Notably, $DEED, the trigger token for this investigation, did not even make it into the top ten highest-drained tokens.

AMC Entertainment CEO Adam Aron posted on X, praising U.S. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins' announcement of policies related to tokenized stocks, and highlighted three principles, including that investor protection must not be compromised, synthetic assets must not be used, and stock issuers have the right to object to their securities being traded on tokenized securities trading venues.Aron stated that under the framework published by the SEC, eligible stock tokens should carry full voting rights and dividend rights, and listed companies should also have the right to prevent their securities from being traded in tokenized form. He also called out Robinhood co-founder Vlad Tenev, urging Robinhood to follow the same standards in its overseas stock token business, particularly regarding investor protection, synthetic assets, and issuers' right to object.Previously, the SEC yesterday approved a temporary, conditional "Innovation Exemption," allowing tokenized stocks to be traded on a limited basis on certain onchain venues—Tokenized Securities Trading Venues (TSVs).
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has recently permitted cryptocurrency trading platforms to offer digital tokenization services for individual stocks such as Apple and Tesla under a lightweight regulatory framework. This move is viewed as a significant breakthrough for onboarding trillions of dollars in assets on-chain, primarily benefiting crypto-native exchanges and transitioning traditional brokerages.

Odaily News: Solana's official X account reposted an interview clip with Backpack founder and CEO Armani Ferrante. Ferrante stated that Backpack's goal is "not 10 stocks, not 100 stocks, but to bring the entire stock market onto Solana."At its core is an API connecting brokerages and DeFi: tokens held by users correspond to real shares, are 1:1 in-kind redeemable, and can flow freely in both directions between brokerage accounts and on-chain. Ferrante gave an example: users can buy SpaceX tokens on Solana and then transfer them directly to brokerage accounts such as Backpack, Fidelity, and Robinhood. He emphasized that the fundamental difference between this and other tokenized stock solutions on the market is that "what you actually get is the stock itself."Ferrante revealed that currently there are only about 200 tokenized stock assets across all chains combined, and the next step is to expand to 10,000.

Robinhood Chain launchpad Pons has officially responded to earlier reports about a token authorization vulnerability in its front end, stating that the Pons launchpad trading page does not have any Multicall3 functionality. The Multicall3 feature mentioned in the tweet originated from the previous Debank Chain old version bridge and was released before the Pons launchpad, thus it does not affect launchpad users. It is currently confirmed that only 0.60 NOXA tokens, valued at approximately $0.66, are affected.As a security precaution, Pons recommends that users who previously used the old version bridge revoke token authorizations via revoke.cash. The team is currently working with audit firms to investigate potential risks and has stated that Pons' front-end services will be restored after confirming the absence of any actual vulnerabilities.
Michael, Chief Business Officer of Token Pocket, stated on platform X that Robinhood founder's seed phrase was leaked during a live stream. After gaining control of the address, the hacker used it and associated addresses to heavily purchase the Meme token $1, prompting thousands of investors to follow suit. In a short time, the token's market cap quickly surged from approximately $500,000 to $14 million.Subsequently, the price of the $1 token dropped sharply, with two-hour trading volume reaching around $20 million. After the address was frozen, the hacker quickly moved to the BNB Chain, using the address and its associated addresses to issue a new token. They created trading activity through tactics like wash trading, ultimately dumping the tokens for profit.Currently, Robinhood's RPC has frozen the address, and the node does not allow transactions originating from this address to be packaged, making transfers, purchases, or sales impossible.
According to Cointelegraph, Robinhood users have recently fallen victim to a phishing attack. Attackers exploited Gmail’s feature of ignoring periods (“.”) in email usernames, along with a vulnerability in Robinhood’s account creation process, to register accounts with email addresses highly similar to those of their targets. This enabled them to trick Robinhood’s official email server into delivering spoofed alert emails containing phishing links directly to victims’ inboxes. Cybersecurity researcher Alex Eckelberry noted that these emails pass SPF, DKIM, and DMARC authentication checks and thus appear to originate from Robinhood’s official domain. Robinhood stated that this incident does not involve any breach of its systems or customer accounts, and user funds and personal information remain unaffected. However, the company urges users to delete such emails and avoid clicking any suspicious links.
