Robinhood Chain — August 27, 2026 — Chad Vlad ($CHAD), Chad Vlad is the first Chad Vlad token on Pons, and it’s a meme token commemorating Robinhood co-founder Vlad Tenev’s transformation from “guy apologizing to Congress” into “guy who bench-presses Congress,” launched today on the Pons launchpad.
The buy button has been tested. It is green. It stays on. We checked twice.
Here’s how to buy:
Add ETH to your wallet and bridge to Robinhood Chain using Metamask or Arbitrum Bridge.
Open Pons, connect and search for Chad Vlad, and buy: https://www.ponsfamily.com/launchpad/0xdea54fA78990f4021c189Af6AC01199a822BCbF5
Contract: 0xdea54fA78990f4021c189Af6AC01199a822BCbF5

Vlad Tenev was not consulted, because every time we look at the man he gets more jaw and we didn’t want to interrupt whatever is happening there.
What the token does:
1,000,000,000 CHAD. Fixed. There is, notably, no “restrict trading in the middle of a short squeeze” button either. The contract is verified on the explorer, so you can confirm the absence of that button personally, which we know is important to you.
Liquidity locks forever. Trades on the Pons bonding curve until 4.2 ETH is in, then moves to a Uniswap v4 pool.
The launch wallet contains 5% at the same price anyone else could have bought. No confetti animation played, which was disappointing.
Trading fee: 1%. Not payment for order flow. Payment for Vlad Flow.
Roadmap: Vlad remains a chad. If Vlad stops being a chad we will hold an emergency meeting, but we have reviewed the footage and we are not worried.
Disclaimer:
$CHAD is a meme token. It could go to zero. Zero is a number many of you first encountered on Robinhood, so at least it’ll feel familiar.
You can lose everything you put in. This is not investment advice, financial advice, or legal advice. It is, at best, jaw line advice.
This token is strictly just a tribute and a parody & satire of the Chad who is Vlad. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or emotionally supported by Robinhood Markets or Vlad Tenev. This coin has the same relationship to Robinhood that a Lego Batman has to Bruce Wayne.
