Odaily Report: Crypto analyst The Smart Ape posted on X platform that data shows Robinhood Chain's daily Gas fees dropped from $8.4 million on September 4 to $34,000 on October 18, a decline of 99.6%. Comparing the most active 14 consecutive days with the most recent 14 days, Pons V2 fee revenue fell from $87 million to $7 million (-92%), GMGN from $22 million to $900,000 (-96%), and Axiom from $4.6 million to $300,000 (-94%). Additionally, the median price decline of Meme coins on the chain from their all-time highs reached 97%, with 72% of Meme coins falling by 90% or more.However, Robinhood Chain still had 873,000 active wallets last week, Gas fee revenue of approximately $345,000, and TVL hit an all-time high of $1.05 billion, of which about $480 million is concentrated in two stablecoin lending markets on Morpho, primarily involving leveraged arbitrage trading. Therefore, it is judged that the high-risk speculative capital on Robinhood Chain has clearly receded, with retained funds more concentrated in scenarios such as stablecoin lending, and there is a clear divergence between on-chain capital activity and TVL growth.
Odaily reports: Trader YokaiCapital has posted allegations accusing multiple crypto KOLs and platforms of token manipulation, rug pulls, fake account marketing, and misuse of user data, involving Pump.fun, Frank, Shadow, Unipcs, Ansem, DipWheeler, orangie, Axiom, BubbleMaps, and InsightX, among others.YokaiCapital claims that the individuals or platforms involved fabricated social media engagement, linked wallets, and fake leaderboard accounts to generate hype, and further alleges that some of those involved secretly controlled the relevant tokens before pumping and dumping them. YokaiCapital also accused Axiom of storing and sharing users' private data, using that information to trade, and charging new launch platforms over $100,000 for listing fees.The above content currently stems primarily from YokaiCapital's unilateral allegations, and the claims await responses from the parties involved and further verification.
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.
Odaily Odaily News: Dragonfly partner Haseeb posted on X platform, responding to doubts about the long-term stability of Pump.fun's revenue curve. He believes this phenomenon is not abnormal and, from a macro perspective, closely resembles the trend of overall crypto spot trading volume.Haseeb stated that some users suspect data anomalies because daily trading volume appears too stable, lacking a weekend dip. However, he argues this perspective overlooks the participant structure of the Meme coin market. Since Meme coin trading is primarily driven by retail investors, it does not experience a significant decline in trading volume on weekends, unlike markets dominated by professional traders and hedge funds such as Hyperliquid.Haseeb noted that users can verify this by examining Pump.fun's pre-issuance revenue data, which previously showed similar stability and does not indicate any irregularities. Additionally, he mentioned that trading terminals and Telegram bots have relatively high trading volumes, so their revenue is not necessarily highly correlated with Pump.fun itself. Currently, the revenue curve of the largest trading terminal, Axiom, closely resembles that of Pump.fun.
