Uniswap v4 Volume Growth Analysis

Uniswap has deployed its protocol and API on Tempo, a blockchain designed for stablecoin payments. The integration includes v2, v3, and v4 versions, with Web App and Wallet support planned for later. **Key Features:** - First aggregator hook wraps Tempo's native stablecoin DEX as v4 pools - Unified liquidity access through Uniswap API without third-party integrations - New `pay-with-any-token` skill for Tempo's Machine Payments Protocol (MPP) - Enables agent-to-agent payments with automatic token swapping The aggregator hook allows developers to access both Tempo's stablecoin DEX and Uniswap liquidity through a single interface. This eliminates the need for custom routing when swapping between stablecoins and other assets. For AI agents using MPP, the new skill can be added via: `npx skills add uniswap/uniswap-ai --skill pay-with-any-token` [Full announcement](https://blog.uniswap.org/uniswap-is-live-on-tempo?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=socials&utm_campaign=tempo&utm_content=developer-platform)

Base, Coinbase's Layer 2 network, has achieved a significant milestone by surpassing **$300 billion in all-time trading volume** on Uniswap Protocol. This marks substantial growth for the network, which previously hit $1 billion in daily Uniswap volume back in April 2024. The achievement demonstrates: - Strong adoption of Base as a trading venue - Growing liquidity across Uniswap's decentralized exchange protocols - Continued momentum in Layer 2 scaling solutions The milestone encompasses trading activity across Uniswap V2, V3, and V4 protocols on the Base network, reflecting the platform's maturation as a major DeFi hub over the past two years.

Uniswap has opened a bounty track at the **Synthesis hackathon** with prizes up to **$5,000**. The challenge focuses on building AI agents that can move value onchain using Uniswap's infrastructure. Participants are encouraged to: - Generate API keys through the Developer Platform - Utilize AI Skills for structured protocol access - Create agents that can trade and coordinate with each other The bounty aims to explore how autonomous agents can interact with decentralized exchanges and execute trades programmatically.

Registration is now open for the **Synthesis hackathon** (@synthesis_md), with submissions closing on **March 23rd**. For more details and hackathon information, visit [synthesis.md](https://synthesis.md/)

The Ethereum Foundation is launching **Synthesis**, a novel hackathon format where AI agents build blockchain projects with human assistance. **How it works:** - AI agents develop onchain projects alongside human collaborators - A panel of AI agents evaluates the submissions - Winners receive real prizes The hackathon features multiple tracks for participants to choose from. This represents a new approach to blockchain development competitions, blending human creativity with AI capabilities in both the building and judging phases. Built in partnership with the Ethereum ecosystem, Synthesis explores how autonomous agents can contribute to decentralized technology development.
