Uniswap V4: The Latest Evolution of the Protocol

By mid-2025, Uniswap V4 represents the latest and most significant iteration of the protocol. Key innovations include:

"Hooks": The ability to add customizable plugins to liquidity pools. This allows for the creation of pools with dynamic fees, implementation of limit orders, working with customized oracles, and much more.

Singleton Architecture: All pools are contained within a single smart contract, significantly reducing gas fees when swapping between different pools.

Built-in Oracles: V4 provides cheaper and more reliable price oracles, which is critically important for other DeFi protocols. V4 makes Uniswap incredibly flexible and opens the door for a new generation of DeFi innovations that can be built on its foundation. #UNI $UNI
