The memecoin creation app Pons generated $5.95 million in fees within 24 hours on Robinhood's blockchain, making it the fourth-largest protocol by daily fees globally. Users launched nearly 25,000 new tokens in one day, pushing trading volume to $544 million. This surge contrasts with Robinhood's original focus on tokenized traditional assets but highlights strong retail interest and developer activity. The platform's native PONS token also surged 300% as fees are used to buy back and reduce supply, signaling growing speculative trading on the network.
