Uniswap v4
Verified Pools leverages Uniswap v4 to enable its permissioned liquidity pools. As a successor to Uniswap v3, the v4 protocol inherits all of the capital efficiency improvements of its predecessor while providing more flexibility to developers via hooks and simultaneously improving gas efficiency with a singleton architecture.
Verified Pools achieves its permissioning layer by utilizing a Uniswap v4 hook which performs a series of policy checks on all liquidity operations. These policy checks validate that the transacting wallet possesses a valid Verified Account + Verified Country Coinbase Verification in addition to ensuring the wallet is not on a sanctions list.
In addition to hooks and a singleton architecture, Uniswap v4 also introduces dynamic fees, flash accounting, support for native ETH, and custom accounting features. To learn more about Uniswap v4, please see the official Uniswap v4 Whitepaper as well as the official Uniswap v4 docs.
