Episode notes

Aram: Hook is not like it's not a specific app. It implies kind of openness. It implies permissionlessness. And we start to realize there were over multiple points within the transaction lifecycle, where you like wanted to do arbitrary things sometimes. So hooks just felt like a good kind of moment for that versus like a widget or an app sounds almost like marketing or like branding. This is sort of more like, you know, a low level code base kind of feature.

Hayden Adams joins us to announce the release of Uniswap V4! He walks us through innovations new to Uniswap like hooks and singleton contracts in addition to a new upgrade that can lower gas costs up to 90%.

To launch V4 we need your help, the community, to contribute your opinions and decide the fate of this new protocol.
