before robinhood had a chain, they had Rocket.
years ago a raccoon started showing up around robinhood's Lake Mary office.
instead of getting rid of her, employees fed her, named her Rocket, made stickers of her and literally gave her a linkedin as “Scavenger at Robinhood.”
she eventually even made it into the Sherwood Forest mural at their office.
this was around 2019.
no token. no chain. no narrative to sell.
just a raccoon that somehow became part of robinhood lore.
fast forward years later and robinhood has its own chain, tokenized stocks are onchain and memestocks are starting to become a real meta.
so the pairing felt pretty obvious.
$ROCKET / $SPCX
her name is literally Rocket and she's paired with SpaceX.
rockets go to the moon.
doesn't get much more crypto than that lol
and the pairing isn't just there because the ticker fits. trading fees are redistributed to holders in $SPCX, meaning volume actually accumulates the stock we're paired with.
old robinhood lore + the new memestock meta + probably the most natural stock pairing you could give her.
the lore came first.
the coin came years later.
welcome back Rocket 🦝
24 HOURS IN.
Since then:
• Rocket became the face of the story
• The lore started growing
• A community formed around it
• The SpaceX pairing became part of the
lore
• Fee distribution runs through the SpaceX pairing
And this is only what happened in the first 24 hours.
A website is coming.

We’ve been building the story one piece at a time.
This isn’t the end of the story.
It’s the beginning.
$ROCKET is built around one simple idea:
The fees don’t just disappear.
They get redistributed into $SPCX giving Rocket exposure to SpaceX with every trade.
ROCKET × SpaceX
The lore writes itself.
