Uniswap Expands Presence on Robinhood Chain with Pools.trade Launch

Uniswap Labs has expanded its presence on Robinhood Chain by launching Pools.trade, a platform for creating, discovering, and trading tokens. The launchpad allows users to create one billion tokens through two routes: Crowd Launch and Instant Launch. Both formats result in permanently locked liquidity pools on Uniswap v4.

Pools.trade offers instant launches without minimum requirements and crowd launches that fill bids gradually over a four-hour period. Trading fees are automatically compounded into the locked position, preventing creators from withdrawing initial liquidity after launch.

Uniswap charges no separate launchpad fee but does take a 0.25% liquidity provider fee per pool. Creators can activate an additional fee of 0.05% on each trade, giving them a direct financial interest in continued activity around their token.

The platform has arrived on a network that has already seen significant decentralized trading volume. DefiLlama reported $519.97 million in daily DEX volume and $597.51 million stablecoin capitalization at the time of review.
