Uniswap enters meme coin market with launch of Pools.trade platform

Uniswap Labs launched the Pools.trade platform on the Robinhood Chain on Thursday, August 6, 2026 (15 Mordad 1405), entering the meme coin creation and trading market, Arzdigital reported. The platform lets users create, discover and trade tokens through a single interface; each token launches with a fixed supply of 1 billion units, and successful launches are ultimately moved into a Uniswap v4 liquidity pool. Two launch methods are available: a four-hour "crowd launch" that only enters trading once its valuation reaches $10,000, and an "instant launch" that begins trading immediately on a bonding curve. Uniswap charges no separate fee for using the launchpad beyond the standard 0.25 percent liquidity-provider fee on each pool, and token creators can activate a fee of 0.05 percent per trade for themselves. Uniswap warned that assets launched on the platform are highly volatile and could fall to zero in value, and that a project's presence on Pools.trade does not represent Uniswap's endorsement or official review of it.
