Incase you missed it, check out our new research on @coingecko 👇
New research with @coingecko 🚨
Memecoins and tokenized stocks are crossing paths on Robinhood Chain ✅
Through @ponsdotfamily, creators can launch new tokens using assets linked to stocks like Nvidia as their trading reserves.
We explored the activity and what it could mean for onchain markets 👇🧵
> First, how does Pons work?
When creators launch a token, they choose an asset people can trade it against.
> That could be $ETH, a stablecoin, or a tokenized stock.
> As people buy the new token, the reserve grows. If it reaches its target, trading moves to Uniswap.
> And here's where Stock Tokens come in...
> Instead of only being held or traded directly, these stock-linked assets can now serve as reserves for entirely new crypto markets.
> For example, a token linked to Nvidia stock can be used as the trading reserve for a newly launched memecoin.
> And the activity has been substantial 🔥
> Between August 3 & September 3, 2026, Pons V2 recorded:
📊 207,893 token launches
💰 $736M in trading during the launch phase
🔄 At least $2.14B in trading after successful launches moved to Uniswap
Source: @Bitquery_io
> Creators are also exploring different reserve options...
> Of those 207,893 launches, 73,896 used alternatives to $ETH and dollar stablecoins, including tokenized stocks, commodities, and $WBTC.
> Together, these launches generated $232M in trading volume.
> Some examples are already emerging:
🔹 ORBIO launched using an Nvidia-linked Stock Token as its reserve.
🔹 Longbow ($BOW) launched using a token linked to SPY, an S&P 500 ETF.
Both graduated to Uniswap, showing how stock-linked assets can be used in new crypto markets.
> There's still a lot to learn, though...
> Only 1.55% of Pons V2 launches graduated to @Uniswap during the study period.
Whether these markets can sustain trading activity and liquidity over time remains to be seen.
Our latest research on @coingecko explores the numbers and what comes next! 👇

📖 IQ Insight
This week, the common theme was control.
@AnthropicAI looked at what can happen when an AI evaluation crosses its intended boundaries.
@ethereumfndn adjusted its testnet timeline to allow additional compatibility checks.
@Cloudflare and Commerce.com are defining exactly which actions an AI shopping agent should be able to take.
As systems become more autonomous and interconnected, deciding where the boundaries sit becomes part of building the tech itself.

Tokenized stocks are finding their way into memecoin markets 👀
With over 207K tokens launched through Pons V2 in just 32 days, there's plenty to unpack.
Our team at @iqwiki explores this emerging use case for Stock Tokens on @RobinhoodCrypto in their latest @coingecko feature 👇

It was great speaking at @ethconf on the global importance of a Korean won 🇰🇷 stablecoin.
How the won is the 2nd most traded fiat currency and how @KrwqCash can bring it onchain.
The success of KRWQ is open to anyone, with ethereum:0x579cea1889991f68acc35ff5c3dd0621ff29b0c9 as its value accrual token.
Korean Won liquidity is concentrated on centralized exchanges. What would it take to bring it into DeFi?
@KrwqCash co-founder @NavV96 made the case for a won stablecoin and 24/7 onchain FX during Ethereum Stablecoin Summit at @money2020.
