Uniswap announced the launch of a beta Launches tab in its web app to aggregate and display token launch projects based on Uniswap infrastructure. This feature initially supports launch projects on Robinhood Chain and integrates token information from multiple launch platforms. Users can filter and sort by dimensions such as launch platform, 24-hour trading volume, liquidity, listing time, and popularity.
Uniswap founder Hayden posted on X, stating that one of the biggest misconceptions in the DeFi space is that DEX aggregators have eliminated the distribution advantages of AMMs. Listing a token on Uniswap is like being simultaneously listed on all global exchanges for free, something other AMMs cannot achieve.
Cash Cat has announced the launch of its meme coin launchpad, letscash.fun. The project team stated that the platform originated from the community's demand for a fair launch mechanism following the listing of Robinhood Crypto, and was driven by community development.Cash Cat indicated that the platform operates in two modes: In Creator Mode, 70% of tokens go to the creator and 30% to the protocol; in Self-Destruct Mode, similarly, 70% is used to buy and burn tokens. The 30% obtained by the protocol will be used to burn cash-cat:native, increase treasury funds, and support development.The platform is powered by Uniswap v4, employing a permissionless, decentralized mechanism that is immutable after deployment. It is currently undergoing its final security review by Hyacinth Audits and SB Security.
According to Odaily, Pons, a token launch platform on Robinhood Chain, will release its v2 version, planning to introduce multiple feature updates.It is reported that Pons v2 will introduce a Bonding Curve mechanism denominated in ETH, remove trading restrictions for non-developer wallets, and support custom trading pairs, including RWA assets such as USDG, NVDA, AAPL, and HOOD.Additionally, Pons will adopt Uniswap V4 pools and Hooks to redesign the fee structure, with creators receiving fees in ETH by default. When the token value reaches 4.2 ETH, it will automatically graduate to a permanently locked Uniswap V4 full-range position.Other updates include a new CTO function with a 3-day timelock, support for charging fees in stablecoins or other tokens, and an optional tax mechanism for each buy and sell transaction.
Uniswap has announced the official launch of the DualPool Hook. DualPool is an open-source Uniswap v4 Hook, jointly designed and developed by Spark and Uniswap Labs, which allows market makers to deposit idle assets into lending protocols to earn yields while waiting for liquidity funds to be matched, and to recall funds to the liquidity pool when a trade occurs. From an external perspective, DualPool is indistinguishable from a regular Uniswap v4 liquidity pool; traders, aggregators, and solvers still execute transactions through the Pool Manager. Its internal mechanism involves storing liquidity funds in an ERC-4626 yield vault, automatically withdrawing funds to deploy into concentrated liquidity positions when a trade needs to be executed, thereby ensuring transaction execution while allowing idle funds to continuously generate lending returns.
DeFi infrastructure company Enso disclosed a type of malicious liquidity pool called "toxic pools" in a report on July 16th. These pools manipulate transaction simulations to return false optimal quotes to wallets and DEX aggregators, subsequently altering the logic during actual on-chain execution. Enso stated that the relevant malicious contracts can identify read-only simulation environments and return optimized prices, but when the transaction is broadcast on-chain, it is executed at a worse price or causes the transaction to fail. One manipulated Curve pool processed over 129,000 swaps, resulting in approximately $225,000 in inflated quotes. Additionally, over 37,000 transactions were reverted, consuming nearly $30,000 in gas fees. On Polygon, a malicious Uniswap v4 hook attracted routing systems with fake exchange rates, subsequently triggering a 99.1% transaction failure rate. Enso stated that it has updated its execution protection product, Enso Shield, to detect fake quotes in Ethereum and Polygon environments.
Uniswap has launched a governance proposal to extend the protocol fee collection and UNI burn mechanism to Robinhood Chain, covering versions v2, v3, and v4. According to the proposal, protocol fees generated on Robinhood Chain will be deposited into the TokenJar contract on that chain, and Searchers can redeem the fees by bridging UNI back to the Ethereum mainnet and sending it to the burn address.
TxFlow L1 has announced the launch of its second Channel, Probly, the first prediction market application developed based on the TxFlow Improvement Protocol 3 (TIP3). Upon launch, Probly offers 172 live markets covering over 7,000 events, including continuous rolling markets with a minimum duration of 5 minutes, and supports on-chain settlement and TxFlow L1's shared financial infrastructure. Probly covers 15 categories including politics, sports, crypto, finance, and geopolitics, and provides prediction markets related to BTC, ETH, SOL, and XRP price movements for 5-minute, 15-minute, 1-hour, and 4-hour intervals. Users can access Probly via an email-based embedded wallet without needing to manage seed phrases, or by connecting compatible wallets such as MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Phantom, and Uniswap Wallet. Eligible settlement amounts will be automatically credited in USDC after the event is resolved, with no separate claim required. (Decrypt).

on-chain analyst Ai Yi posted on Platform X, stating that Memecoins are becoming the primary traffic gateway for Robinhood Chain. CASHCAT reached a market cap of $100 million within five hours, and Robinhood CEO @vladtenev participated in related discussions. Robinhood Chain saw over 10,000 new tokens launched in a single day, with DEX trading volume exceeding $560 million. Robinhood Chain is an L2 network. Users can add the network via wallets such as OKX, Binance, and MetaMask, with Chain ID 4663. The official Robinhood Wallet is available on iOS and Android mobile apps and features cross-chain functionality. Cross-chain methods on Robinhood Chain include the official cross-chain bridge, Robinhood Wallet, and third-party aggregators like Relay, Stargate, and Across. Withdrawals via the official cross-chain bridge have a 7-day waiting period. DEXs on the Robinhood Chain ecosystem include Uniswap and NOXA Fun. Meme tracking tools include DEXScreener and GMGN.
Vitalik Buterin stated on platform X that Ethereum researchers have finalized the "Ethereum Slimming" roadmap during a recent meeting in Berlin. This roadmap is not a single upgrade but a series of forks spanning 3 to 4 years. Starting from the "I-star" fork, it will become the third major phase of Ethereum and will replace most core components. Core changes include shifting verification from direct execution to recursive STARKs, introducing 1 to 2 rounds of finality in consensus, multi-dimensional gas pricing, and completely replacing existing schemes with quantum-resistant cryptography. In terms of the state model, the current dynamic state will only expand to approximately 2TB, while new scalable states such as UTXO and ring buffers will be introduced, with a total size potentially reaching 100TB, suitable for ERC20, NFTs, and DeFi. After rewriting, transaction fees can be reduced by more than 10 times; complex applications like Uniswap pools will retain their old state without mandatory migration. Privacy will be elevated to a first-class design goal, with all new components required to support quantum-resistant, intermediary-free private transactions. Formal verification will be fully deployed, and the exploration of introducing RISC-V or leanISA as the underlying protocol VM will be undertaken. The EVM may transition into a compilation-layer feature in the future. Gas limits, Blob capacity, and block times will be increased multiple times over the next 5 years, with the Glasterdam fork first raising the gas limit. Regarding the fork order, the H-star Hegota fork will be the last "pre-slimming" fork, after which the era of slimming will begin.
Robinhood has announced the official launch of the public mainnet for its proprietary Layer 2 network, Robinhood Chain. Built on the Arbitrum technology stack, the chain is positioned as an institution-grade, permissionless, AI-native network specifically designed for Real World Assets (RWA).Robinhood Chain's launch partners include Uniswap, Pleiades, Alchemy, BitGo, and Chainlink. Among them, Uniswap will deploy a dedicated AMM on the chain as the primary public liquidity protocol, while Pleiades will deploy its own AMM as the primary proprietary trading venue. The chain will also offer basic DeFi functionalities such as lending.Eligible users can trade tokenized stocks 24/7 on Robinhood Chain. Simultaneously, Robinhood Earn will introduce USDG-based decentralized lending products within the main app. In certain jurisdictions, the new version of Robinhood Wallet will also support access to Lighter's perpetual contract trading.Robinhood also announced the expansion of its European perpetual contract product range, its official entry into the Canadian market, and the acquisition of a Singapore Capital Markets Services license. Furthermore, Agentic Accounts for crypto trading are planned to begin rolling out in the US soon, allowing AI agents to participate in trading and fund management.Robinhood stated that this update represents its most ambitious global expansion and product vision to date, with the goal of establishing a more direct connection between traditional finance and DeFi, integrating stocks, crypto, RWA, perpetual contracts, and AI trading into a unified financial experience.

Sky (formerly MakerDAO), in collaboration with Spark and Uniswap, announced that the initial 150 million in liquidity for FX Layer, a stablecoin exchange system jointly developed by the three parties, is entirely sourced from the Sky ecosystem's stablecoin USDS. As the platform's core pricing asset, USDS provides base liquidity for USDS/USDT and USDS/PYUSD trading pools, marking the first large-scale implementation of this shared liquidity framework.The long-term plan for the three parties is to introduce institutions engaged in stablecoin operations, such as PayPal's PYUSD, Ripple's RLUSD, Robinhood, and Revolut, to access the unified infrastructure. This eliminates the need for each issuer to independently build liquidity pools and market-making systems. Simultaneously, a governance mechanism will be established to allow idle funds not involved in market-making to generate ongoing returns.Looking back to June 25th, Spark and Uniswap officially announced the launch of FX Layer. The division of roles is clear: Spark acts as the orchestration layer to allocate cross-stablecoin liquidity, while Uniswap v4 executes transaction paths via its programmable AMM mechanism through the DualPool hook. It offers a one-stop stablecoin exchange service for banks, fintech companies, and payment enterprises.
According to a research report released by Geoff Kendrick, Standard Chartered’s Global Head of Digital Assets, as Wall Street accelerates the onchain migration of real-world assets, Uniswap’s native token UNI is poised for nearly a 40-fold increase before 2030, with a price target of $100 and a year-end target of $6.50. Kendrick positions Uniswap as an open-market infrastructure layer accessible to TradFi institutions—not as a retail DEX application—and forecasts that total value locked (TVL) across DeFi protocols will reach $2.7 trillion by 2030, at which point Uniswap’s liquidity pool size could expand 37-fold.
According to official announcements, Fidelity, one of the world’s largest asset management firms, is advancing the on-chain deployment of its stablecoin and has selected Uniswap as its liquidity layer.
that, according to Bubblemaps, the FIFA-related token WCUP, which launched yesterday, surged to a market cap of approximately $50 million. Over 30 new wallets snapped up 95% of its supply immediately at the opening. These wallets were funded by multiple centralized exchanges within the half-hour before the launch, had no prior on-chain history, and subsequently distributed the tokens to over 2,500 new addresses via Uniswap Router.Bubblemaps noted that the project's documentation only vaguely mentions a presale and partner allocations, with no on-chain evidence directly linking to the team. However, this level of concentration, combined with undisclosed paid promotion arrangements with KOLs, poses a significant risk.
