Uniswap FoundationHow to Navigate Uniswap v4 Data
Uniswap v4 is here! With the new singleton architecture, hooks, flash accounting, and support for native ETH, it introduces fresh concepts that change how we look at and analyze onchain data. This post provides a quick guide to help you navigate v4 data, carry out analytics, and start discovering new insights right away. Overview:Discover: Where to find Uniswap v4 data and how it differs from previous versions.Learn: Practical methods for analyzing core features—like hooks and singleton pools...
Uniswap FoundationIntroducing Unichain Developer Grants
Amplifying and accelerating the builders who drive DeFi forward. Last week marked the launch of Unichain, a new Ethereum L2 designed for DeFi, and powered by the Superchain. Unichain is built to be the home for DeFi and liquidity in our multichain world. It’s low cost, while furthering decentralization. It’s fast, with near instant transactions. It’s designed to offer seamless multi-chain swapping. It’s open source, with components available for other chains to adopt. Unichain is built to sca...

gm ily ♡ in this week’s update: uhi6 kicks off ∞ morpho gets a grant via futarchy ∞ catex shares their mission ∞ security tips from areta + cyfrin ∞ it really is a v4 summer
the markets have spoken: morpho will receive the $100k grant for tvl growth on unichain, as decided by conditional funding markets (an implementation of futarchy). starting august 11, two additional $400K grants will be allocated to lending protocols based on forecasted tvl growth. learn more about cfms here.
state of blockchain security: our friends dennis from areta & mark from cyfrin discussed how attack surfaces are evolving, the growing role of ai in audit processes, and how security funds (like the ufsf) are changing the way teams manage risk. check out the full conversation here.
uniswap hook incubator: cohort 06 kicked off yesterday, with 150+ solidity devs from around the world who will go on to build hooks with dynamic fees, rehypothecation, custom curves, and more. btw, applications for uhi07 are open until aug 29, and you should apply.
bringing argentina onchain: crecimiento’s mission is to redpill argentina. they recently held a meetup where our ambassador nico gave a deep dive on the evolution of the uniswap protocol and the power of hooks. they have a bunch of upcoming events this summer, from coworking to workshops to open mic nights.
its v4 summer btw: earlier this week, we saw that 20% of total uniswap tvl now comes from v4 (that’s $101b total volume), 3,000+ liquidity providers are active daily, and 2,200+ hooks have been initialized. to see the data for yourself, dive into our v4 dashboard.
bita, our growth manager at the uniswap foundation, recently spoke with apeguru, head chef at catex, about their mission of driving tvl for hook builders from day one through catex’s incentive layer
on catex's mission:
“many hook builders face a cold-start problem: you might have an amazing hook, but without tvl to prove it can scale, it's very hard to create a snowball effect and attract people to your hook. we work closely with different strategists and builders to provide initial incentives toward their strategies to drive tvl.”
on the dynamic liquidity flywheel:
“it's designed to maximize protocol alignment across multiple participants; traders, lps, and governance participants. instead of giving away tokens for free, lps have two options: buy catex tokens at a discount (with the discount being their APR), or convert their catex rewards into max-locked veCatex, which is the governance asset providing full value and voting power."
on getting started on v4:
“fafo. you need to f*ck around and find out!
i believe 99% of hook use cases haven't even been figured out yet. there's so much outside what we can imagine right now, and someone is going to experiment enough to discover everything we don't know.”
simplifying financial workflows: integral is launching native support for unichain to unlock easy accounting, onchain activity tracking, automated reporting, and treasury management. learn more on their site.
op claims are now open: unichain users that participated in optimism’s superstacks campaign can now exchange XP for OP. go to the app, connect your wallet, and claim.
our pie is growing: unichain had its most profitable day yet this week, as reported by our grantee growthepie, a public goods funded analytics platform.
hook discoverability: chase & niko recently went live with rostyslav to discuss hookrank, your portal to explore the 2000+ hooks launched on v4. you can sort by 8 different networks, including unichain ofc.
