CASHCAT Funding Rate, Open Interest and Volume

What is CASHCAT and what is its contract address?

CASHCAT, or Cash Cat, is a community meme token deployed on Robinhood Chain. Robinhood Chain is Robinhood’s Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 built with Arbitrum technology; CASHCAT is not an official Robinhood-issued token.

The meme draws its story from Robinhood’s early name. The CASHCAT project site cites a 2021 public post by Vlad Tenev stating that Robinhood’s original name was “Cash Cat.” The community revived that startup anecdote and cat imagery as the token’s central narrative.

The boundary matters: CASHCAT says it has no affiliation, endorsement, or partnership with Robinhood Markets or Vlad Tenev. Its own site calls the project “fan fiction with a ticker” and says it has “zero utility.” It is not Robinhood equity, a platform entitlement, a governance credential, or access to a product. Attention and price therefore depend primarily on narrative, community participation, and trading activity rather than a conventional product or cash flow.

The project reports a 1 billion token total supply, 0/0 buy-and-sell tax, and burned liquidity-pool tokens. Those are project claims, not an independent audit or guarantee of safety; supply, concentration and liquidity conditions should still be checked onchain.

Its full contract address is 0x020bfC650A365f8BB26819deAAbF3E21291018b4. When identifying or trading CASHCAT, verify both Robinhood Chain and the complete address; a token with the same ticker on another network should not be assumed to be the same asset.

This address identifies the spot token onchain. The CASHCAT market displayed below is a perpetual contract referencing the token, so a token contract address and a perpetual market are not the same kind of identifier.

When did CASHCAT perpetuals launch on Hyperliquid?

Hyperliquid’s official announcement shows that CASHCAT perpetuals launched on July 11, 2026 at 04:53 UTC. The announcement specifies up to 3× leverage, isolated margin, and low-leverage restrictions. A listing is not an endorsement of the project.

What does the current CASHCAT funding rate mean?

The current funding field is an hourly rate for the CASHCAT perpetual market. When it is positive, long positions pay short positions; when it is negative, shorts pay longs. The transfer is based on the position held at settlement, so the displayed rate is not the funding cash flow of a particular wallet.

The payer direction is shown as a flow rather than only a signed number. That makes the immediate question—who pays whom—answerable without interpreting a minus sign. Near-zero values are marked neutral rather than being forced into a bullish or bearish label.

Why is past 24-hour funding different from Funding APR?

Past 24-hour funding is historical: the tool requests the hourly records inside the preceding 24-hour window and sums them. Funding APR is hypothetical: it assumes the current hourly rate repeats for 8,760 hours. A sudden change in the latest rate can therefore make APR look very different from the actual one-day sum.

Neither number predicts price. Funding can remain elevated, reverse quickly, or be offset by a much larger move in the underlying perpetual. Use it to understand carrying cost and one aspect of positioning pressure.

Use the 24H, 3D, 7D and 30D controls to change both the chart and cumulative-funding total. The main APR number annualizes the latest hourly rate; the smaller selected-range figure annualizes the actual records in that window. Longer windows provide more context but can hide short-lived reversals visible in the 24-hour chart.

How should CASHCAT open interest and volume be read together?

Open interest measures contracts that remain open. The API reports CASHCAT units, which the tool multiplies by the current mark price to produce approximate dollar notional. The 24-hour volume field measures turnover during the day window; it can include the same risk being opened, closed, and traded repeatedly.

The volume-to-open-interest relationship helps distinguish active turnover from a large stock of outstanding positions, but it does not reveal whether those positions are net bullish, hedged elsewhere, or concentrated in a few accounts.

What this page does not establish

CASHCAT is a fast-moving meme-linked derivatives market. Funding, OI and volume cannot verify the token’s identity across other networks, establish spot liquidity, identify position owners, or prove that leverage is safe. Before acting, inspect executable depth, liquidation distance, fees, and the exact venue and contract being traded.
