"Starting today, you can trade NFTs across major marketplaces to find more listings and better prices. To celebrate NFTs on Uniswap, we are airdropping approximately 5 million USDC to certain historical Genie users and offering gas rebates to the first 22,000 NFT users (more on that below). We also continue to be open-source, trustless, and self-custodial, staying true to our values of decentralization."

Deploy Uniswap V3 on StarkNet
This proposal will grant a Uniswap v3 BSL exemption to the Nethermind 9 team to deploy Uniswap v3 onto StarkNet mainnet 12.

StarkNet is a permissionless ZK-rollup that inherits security from Ethereum mainnet. StarkNet runs CairoVM, a virtual machine optimized for generating zero-knowledge proofs about L2 state transitions. Cairo is the high-level language used for writing smart contracts on StarkNet.
Warp is a transpiler from Solidity to Cairo developed by a team at Nethermind. Nethermind has successfully used Warp to transpile the Uniswap v3 Core contracts to Cairo. Uniswap v3 Core is currently running on a local StarkNet testnet, passing all provided tests. The Nethermind team may use Warp to transpile the Uniswap v3 codebase and deploy it on StarkNet.

In my impression, Uniswap is very popular in 2020. It's certainly a success. Friends and family around me have always liked Uniswap. It was also the peak of the price of Bitcoin at that time, and I really want to go back to the summer of that year. Slowly feel the joy of encryption again. I hope that Uniswap will become more and more successful in the future!

KYC hook for Uniswap v4 stirs community controversy
"A new hook available on an open-source directory for Uniswap v4 hooks is sparking controversy within the crypto community. The hook enables users to be checked for Know Your Customer (KYC) before they can trade in token pools.

Criticizing the hook, a user on X (formerly Twitter) noted that the hook opens up the possibility of decentralized finance protocols being whitelisted by regulators:

“As I explained in all my posts for the past year: It starts with ‘kyc option’ for LPs. And then eventually it moves into a ‘regulator whitelist approved’ database hosted offchain. And then non-kyc gets labeled as illegal terrorist money laundering. Stop simping for soyboys.”"

To play devils advocate, the upside of this is it will deter criminality in those particular pools. E.g., hackers, thieves, scammers & fraudulent team members / influencers will be forced to use other methods for the sake of dumping their ill-gotten tokens.

On the downside, KYC sucks & is stupid, and I think it can still be faked using stolen identities.

Honestly it makes no difference to me... I use Uniswap about once a year on average.

Unfortunately, now, for most services, registration with fake data is impossible and it doesn’t work that way. Now a 3D video of the owner in front of a camera is required, and even in Europe there are people willing to undergo such verification for 30-50 dollars.

"DeFi platform dominance highlighted as UNI witnesses 22% surge in recent bull market, reaching $7.05.

Uniswap has seen substantial growth over the last week following the implementation of various features on the platform, such as Rootstock, an Android mobile wallet app, and extended capabilities to other blockchains.

Meanwhile, Uniswap founder Hayden Adams joked on X that the trading volume on the Uniswap platform exceeded the combined numbers of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and Nasdaq yesterday. It’s worth noting that the NYSE and Nasdaq were closed because of the Christmas Holidays."
