Both the memecoins have enjoyed some big pumps recently as they look to end the month of October noting positive gains.

In some other news related to DOGE: according to a Bloomberg report, Dogecoin accounted for 40% of Robinhood’s crypto transaction revenue in the third quarter.

While the number still sounds impressive, it’s actually a decline from the 62% figure that the company recorded in the second quarter.

Shiba Inu is currently not listed on the platform so investors have started a petition to get Robinhood to add the crypto as well.

At the time of writing, the petition has gathered 438k signatures. It reads:

Half the questions when we log into trading forums ask “How can I buy Shiba!??”Let’s encourage Robinhood to be the first traditional brokerage to get on this train!  Thank you.
