Methodology
How every number on this site is produced, what it excludes, and what it cannot tell you. Written so you can disagree with it specifically rather than generally.
The chain
Robinhood Chain, an Arbitrum Orbit L2, EVM chain ID 4663, mainnet since
1 July 2026. Everything is read over the public JSON-RPC endpoint. No API key, no
third-party indexer, no vendor between the chain and the numbers.
Robinhood Stock Tokens are tokenized debt securities. They give economic exposure only: no voting rights, no ownership of the underlying share. Wherever this site says "tokenized stock" that is what it means.
Finding pools
Uniswap v3 pools are individual contracts, discovered from Swap logs and
resolved with token0(), token1() and fee().
Uniswap v4 is a singleton. A v4 Swap log identifies its pool only by id, and the
token pair lives in the Initialize event from whenever the pool was created. So the
catalogue is built separately, walking the whole chain for Initialize events.
Without it, most swaps land on pools whose composition is unknown: measured at 2,841 of
4,124 in an early run.
Prices
Derived from sqrtPriceX96 in the pool's most recent swap:
price = (sqrtPriceX96 / 2^96)² × 10^(dec0 − dec1)
A one-hop price comes straight from a stablecoin pair, and the busiest such pool wins.
A two-hop price is routed through a bridge, and the gate is narrow on purpose. The
bridge must be ETH or a blue chip, never a stock-paired token and never another equity, and its own
price must be high confidence. The result is capped at low confidence however busy
the pool is, and it carries its full route, so WETH then USDG can never be
mistaken for a direct quote.
This page used to say there was no second hop, on the grounds that chaining prices
through thin pools compounds error. That reasoning is right and the blanket rule was still
wrong: it left 104 of 156 tokens reading n/a, including every token whose only
real market is against ETH. Saying nothing is not more honest than saying "about this much,
through ETH, and we are not confident" — it is the same uncertainty with less information.
The two-hop method was checked before it shipped. Fifty tokens have both a direct stablecoin price and an ETH pool, so both routes could be computed and compared against each other. All fifty agreed within 5%, and most within 0.1%.
A token with no route at all — no stablecoin pair, no bridge — stays unpriced. The page
says no route to a dollar rather than n/a, because "we did not measure
this" and "this cannot be measured" are different statements.
Fees
Read from the pool's own setting, not estimated. Two things make this less simple than it looks.
Uniswap v4 has a dynamic fee flag, 0x800000 (8388608). A pool carrying it
has no fee rate at all; a hook sets one per swap. Dividing that flag by 10,000 produces
838.86%, which this site published until it was caught. Dynamic pools now show the fee
actually charged, taken from the v4 Swap event itself.
Many pools carry fixed fees of 10% or more, some near 100%. Almost none of them have ever traded. Both numbers are always shown together, because the first without the second reads as "traders are being fleeced" and the data does not support that. It describes what gets deployed on this chain, not what anyone has paid.
Liquidity events, and who is behind them
Mint, Burn or
ModifyLiquidity event is not the person. Any position created through a
normal interface records the position manager contract. Checked on this chain:
eth_getCode returned bytecode for every distinct value. Ten contracts, zero
externally-owned accounts, one appearing in 39 pools.This site therefore reports "minting contracts" rather than "liquidity providers", and
makes no claim about how concentrated real liquidity is. Resolving the human requires an
ERC-721 ownerOf against the position token id, which the index does not yet
carry. The wallet view sidesteps this by reading positions straight from the managers.
Windows
Every figure is measured over a stated block range, printed in the header and included in every JSON file. A number here is not a 24-hour number unless the window is 24 hours. A short window is a real limitation and is never rounded up into a comfortable label.
Token classification
| Class | How it is decided |
|---|---|
stock | ERC-20 name matches a Robinhood Stock Token pattern. Inferred and spoofable until the issuer allowlist is populated, so treat the stock count as an upper bound. |
stable, blue | Symbol allowlist |
native | The zero address |
unknown | Everything else, which in practice is stock-paired tokens |
Classification coverage is the binding constraint on every claim this site makes. When only a fraction of tokens are named, a pairing looks absent when it is merely invisible. That happened: this site reported that tokenized stocks almost never pair with stock-paired tokens, and naming more counterparties turned two such pools into sixty-five.
Provenance
Every scan is a git commit. Any past number is reachable by commit hash, so "what did it say on 30 August" is answered with a reference rather than with trust. The scanner and indexer are open source.
Corrections
Published because a data product that never corrects itself is not being checked.
- 838.86% fee. The v4 dynamic-fee flag was divided as if it were a rate.
- "94 of 96 pools have one liquidity provider." A count of position-manager contracts, presented as a concentration finding. It was not one.
- "Tokenized stocks do not pair with stock-paired tokens." An artifact of thin token classification, not a fact about the chain.
- v4 reserves read as dust. Logs were read at a fixed block while state was read at
latest; on a 10-block-per-second chain those are different states.
What this does not do
- No impermanent loss figure. v4 liquidity events carry no amounts, the baseline is ambiguous for concentrated positions, and a single-sided range order would report intended behaviour as catastrophic loss.
- No annualised fee APR. The denominator is in-range liquidity rather than TVL, dynamic-fee pools have no rate to annualise, and annualising a few hundred swaps multiplies noise.
- No wash-trade accusation. Two-sided flow from one address is what a market maker looks like and also what wash trading looks like. Separating them needs net position, timing and funding analysis. This site flags concentration and stops there.
- No investment advice.
