    CASHCAT Surges 120% to $86M Market Cap as Robinhood Chain Deposits Rise and Bybit Launches Perpetual Contract

    CASHCAT, the cat-themed memecoin on Robinhood Chain, has rebounded sharply to an $86 million market cap after a 120% weekly gain. The token’s price reached approximately $0.087 with a daily trading volume of $9 million, though it remains below its July peak of $0.22. Created by outside developers using Robinhood’s former cat-with-cash logo, the project is described by its website as ‘fan fiction with a ticker.’

    CASHCAT became Robinhood Chain’s first breakout memecoin within a week of the mainnet launch on July 1, with early wallets recording seven-figure returns during the initial surge. However, launch activity has since declined. The Noxa launchpad stopped accepting new launches on July 11 and went offline two days later, having earned an estimated $12 million in fees. Daily token deployments across Robinhood Chain launchpads fell from roughly 35,000 in mid-July to nearly 10,000. Noxa still holds about $137,000 in CASHCAT and has not sold.

    According to DEXTools data, there are approximately 41,200 holders, with the entire 989 million supply in circulation. The Uniswap liquidity pool holds 2.47% of the supply, while the next largest wallets each hold between 1.3% and 1.5%. The liquidity pool now contains $5 million, compared with $6.6 million when CASHCAT had a $105 million valuation.

    Robinhood Chain Activity Rises

    Robinhood Chain’s total value locked (TVL) reached $774 million after rising 20% in seven days. Lending protocols accounted for 43% of TVL, while asset management represented 41.5%. Key players include Morpho with $332 million (supporting Robinhood’s on-chain earn product) and Ethena with $236 million. Stablecoin balances grew 14% weekly to $575 million.

    Bybit Adds Leveraged Trading

    Bybit has introduced a CASHCAT perpetual contract with up to 10x leverage, further boosting trading activity. However, questions remain about trading momentum after Robinhood stops covering gas fees around late September. The chain’s stated tokenized-asset total stands at $27.6 million, while another active-market measure reached $100 million, up from about $70 million in late July. During that earlier period, about 12 tokenized stocks each recorded more than $500,000 in daily trading, with GameStop’s tokenized stock generating $26 million alone.

    CASHCAT’s recovery comes amid growing Robinhood Chain deposits and stablecoin balances, yet declining token launches and the impending end of subsidized gas fees represent key tests for the ecosystem’s sustainability.

    Strike Introduces Bitcoin-Backed Loan Without Liquidations

    Strike has launched a new Bitcoin-backed loan product designed to address forced liquidations during periods of extreme market volatility. The key innovation is the removal of margin calls and price-based liquidations, allowing customers to retain their Bitcoin collateral even if the cryptocurrency experiences a sharp decline. However, this added protection comes with trade-offs: borrowers face higher interest rates, shorter repayment periods, and strict repayment schedules. The loans offer a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 45% with six-month terms, and interest rates ranging from approximately 10.7% to 14.2%. While Bitcoin price drops won’t trigger liquidation, borrowers must make timely repayments or risk losing their collateral.

Blockchain intelligence firm TRM Labs recorded 207 crypto hacks in the first half, more than double the 83 incidents from a year earlier—the highest count TRM has measured across any six-month period. Smart contract exploits accounted for 125 incidents (60% of the total) but caused limited financial damage, while infrastructure and operational compromises represented about 15% of incidents but roughly 76% of losses.
