The new version inherits the capital efficiency advantages of Uniswap v3 while introducing significant architectural improvements.
Key Features of Uniswap v4
- “Singleton” Liquidity Architecture:
The new liquidity architecture consolidates all liquidity into a single smart contract. This change is designed to accelerate transactions, lower gas fees, and improve the user experience. - “Hook” Integrations:
Hooks are modular contracts that allow developers to add custom functionalities to liquidity pools. This feature significantly enhances the protocol’s flexibility. - “Flash Accounting” System:
In v3, assets were transferred in and out of pools at the end of each swap. In v4, only net balances are transferred, which the Uniswap team claims will result in significant gas savings.
Why Was It Delayed?
Uniswap v4 was initially scheduled for release in 2024. However, extensive code audits and security competitions caused delays in the timeline.
The new version aims to provide a more efficient DeFi experience for both developers and users. Uniswap continues to solidify its position as a leader in decentralized finance with innovative solutions.
