HOOKED Exchange
HOOKED Exchange
What is HOOKED Exchange?
HOOKED Exchange is a hook marketplace for Uniswap V4 - where developers can experiment with custom fee systems without launching their own protocol, token, or fundraising!
Why developers choose HOOKED: Deploying an independent hook requires massive overhead - aggregator whitelisting, liquidity incentivization systems, and launch infrastructure. HOOKED eliminates these hurdles, letting developers focus purely on building innovative fee algorithms.
First iteration focuses on:
- 🧪 Fee System Experimentation - Developers test and deploy custom dynamic fee algorithms
- 🔬 Oracle Strategy Testing - Build and validate new pricing and fee optimization strategies
- 🗳️ Community Validation - Token holders vote for the most effective fee systems
- 💰 Performance-Based Rewards - Developers earn when their fee systems attract liquidity
Think of it as a "laboratory" for fee innovation - where developers experiment and the community chooses the winners!
How Does It Work?
HOOKED is a fee innovation laboratory:
