Summary

  • Adds GlueHook — a free, keyless, general-purpose buyback / sell-absorption / auto-compounding hook — to HOOKS_ADDRESSES_ALLOWLIST.
  • Hook address (identical on every chain, deployed via CREATE from a nonce-0 deployer): 0xb216070c3509047ea597e2e626a29cea427a60c8
  • Chains added (all where the hook is live AND present in ChainId): Mainnet, Optimism, Arbitrum, Polygon, Celo, BNB, Avalanche, Base, Zora, Blast, World Chain, Unichain, Monad, Soneium, X Layer, Tempo (16). The hook is also deployed on MegaETH and Robinhood at the same address.

What is GlueHook?

GlueHook is a general-purpose Uniswap V4 hook — not a platform-specific one. Any project, DAO or community attaches it to its own pool permissionlessly and gets, natively on Uniswap:

  • Buyback pot — a permissionless per-pool treasury in the paired asset, fillable by anyone: the project, the community, a fee stream, or one-off donations.
  • Pump — on buys, the pot buys too, in the same flow at the pool's live price. Buy pressure compounds buy pressure.
  • Shield — on sells, the pot can absorb the sell: the seller receives the pool's exact output (fee and tick impact included), and the tokens go to the pot instead of dumping on the curve.
  • Burn cascade — tokens the pot buys are burned via the token's own burn(), else sent to 0xdEaD, else held forever inside the hook with a public per-asset counter. Deflation with proof.
  • Self-compounding LP — the hook's own LP position auto-harvests its fees (swap-triggered, no keeper) and splits them by the owner's config between autocompound, pot refuel, burn, and a recipient.

And it is infrastructure, not a product with privileged access:

  • General purpose — ONE deployment serves every pool on the chain, at the SAME address on all 18 mainnets.
  • Not upgradeable — no proxy, no upgrade path, no pause switch. The verified bytecode is final; what you review today is what runs forever.
  • No owner, no admin keys — the contract has no privileged role of any kind. Nobody (including its deployers) can change its behavior, censor a pool, or touch funds it holds.
  • Zero protocol fee — the hook takes nothing for itself. 100% of what flows through it goes to the pool's own program: pot, burn, autocompound, or the recipients each pool's owner configures.
  • Swaps can never be blocked — every hook action is fault-tolerant (try/catch); on any internal failure the hook no-ops and the swap settles exactly like a vanilla pool.

Safety properties relevant to routing

  • Swaps can never be blocked by the hook. Every hook action is wrapped in try/catch-style fault tolerance — on any internal failure the hook no-ops and the swap settles exactly like a vanilla pool. A misconfigured program cannot revert a route.
  • Sellers/buyers always settle at the pool's own math — no oracle, no external price input, no keeper. Nothing off-pool to manipulate or stall.
  • Not upgradeable — no proxy, no admin, no pause switch, no parameter Uniswap routing would need to track.
  • No custom swap data required — pools route with empty hookData; standard Universal Router flows work unmodified.
  • Hook flags (from the address bitmask 0x20C8): beforeInitialize, beforeSwap, afterSwap, beforeSwapReturnsDelta.

Because the hook uses a delta flag, we have also submitted the Uniswap Labs hook routing allowlist form in parallel; this PR mirrors the precedent of other integrator submissions to this file.

Verification

Test plan

  • Confirm the address is lowercase and identical across all 16 chain entries
  • Verify pools with this hook appear in routing results on the added chains
  • Confirm no regressions in existing hook routing

Live metrics: activity, volume and TVL for GlueHook pools across all chains are tracked on a public Dune dashboard: https://dune.com/lalilulel0x0869/gluehook-live
