Inside each narrative
Continuing members are those open in both weeks; their change is computed on their own volume only. Entrants and exits are membership intervals that opened or closed during the week. Concentration is the top member's share of the narrative's volume and the Herfindahl index (0–10,000).

Liquidity-to-size measured at both times for 17 of 140 members: 16 rising, 1 falling. Liquidity / circulating market cap from the same Codex snapshot, nearest each time within 13 hours.
Other holder components need holder panels or wallet-resolved trades; none is collected yet, so no weekly change is reported for them.

A RobinHub recap on 2026-10-14 (third party) says @RobinhoodCrypto crossed $100B in cumulative DEX volume, and its 2026-10-09 recap repeats the report that @RobinhoodCrypto is exploring an actively managed ETF stock token with T. Rowe Price. @RamsesExchange said on 2026-10-14 that it has "$2.5B+ Trading Volume on Robinhood Chain and 30+ Stock Tokens", and on 2026-10-13 @ClutchMarkets and @OxSimpleFarmer announced "Pair Tokens", fused tokens built with Uniswap v4 hooks that can combine stock tokens.

Not offered for sale yet. Its main content derives from codex.launchpad-activity, codex.token-bars, codex.token-snapshot, defillama.fees, whose redistribution rights have not been reviewed; the endpoint answers 403 and never asks for payment. The free discovery endpoint works.
Price per bundle: $0.05 — a test price pending a cost benchmark and owner approval. Payments are accepted only where x402 or MPP is configured on the server; the 402 response says which. This endpoint is not yet listed in the Frames catalog, so a Frames-connected agent cannot find it by search until it is. API and Frames setup
