$PONS token surged more than 16% in the past 24 hours, pushing daily trading volume above $155 million as the native asset of the leading Robinhood Chain launchpad defends a critical support level near $0.70. The rally comes amid a sharp acceleration in platform fundamentals, even as broader hype around the Robinhood Chain ecosystem cools.
Fundamentals Go Vertical Amid Solana Chain Resurgence
According to data from Dune Analytics, $PONS now commands 82.5% market share among Robinhood Chain launchpads — a new all-time high. The platform recorded 36,400 new token launches in a single day, generating $622 million in volume and pushing cumulative traded volume past the $10 billion milestone.
Daily revenue remains firmly above $1.30 million, a notable achievement given that Solana’s Stonk launchpad recently surpassed $PONS in 24-hour revenue during a broader Solana chain resurgence. Revenue flows directly into the protocol’s buyback wallet, which now holds an all-time high of $3.40 million, with an additional $1.66 million sitting in unclaimed escrow.
Capital in the buyback wallet is swapped for $PONS and burned, creating programmatic scarcity. Analysts note the wallet is being replenished faster than funds can be exhausted, suggesting sustained deflationary pressure on token supply.
Technical Outlook: Bull Flag Resistance at $0.85
On the $PONS/USDT chart (TradingView), the token is trading near the upper boundary of a bull flag continuation pattern after holding above $0.70 — a level that aligns with the mid-point of a prior descending trend channel. A decisive break above $0.85 would open the path toward a $1 billion fully diluted valuation, a target previously modeled by analysts.
However, the Choppiness Index (CHOP) has risen to 53, signaling consolidation, while the MACD histogram shows only small green bars, indicating insufficient buyer momentum to force a breakout at this stage. Failure to clear resistance could prolong the correction and risk a breakdown below the $0.70 support.
