Overview
Uniswap is the largest decentralised exchange by volume, pioneering the automated market maker (AMM) model that has become the standard for on-chain token trading. With the launch of Uniswap v4, the protocol introduces Hooks — customisable smart contract plugins that enable institutional-grade features like dynamic fees, on-chain limit orders, TWAP execution, and KYC-gated pools. This hook architecture allows institutions to deploy compliant, customised liquidity pools while leveraging Uniswap's massive existing liquidity and user base. Uniswap has processed over $2 trillion in cumulative trading volume and deploys across all major EVM chains.
