Everyone should be able to access high-quality financial assets, wherever they live.
That's what tokenization unlocks: taking the best of US capital markets and making them available on a global scale.
The industry is still small compared with global finance, but the advantages are becoming harder to ignore. Traditional market infrastructure was built around fixed hours, closed networks and layers of intermediaries. It was never designed for 24/7 execution, programmable assets, composability or self-custody.
The needs of investors have moved faster than the rails underneath them. We're working to change that.
What gives me confidence is seeing how many different people are now pushing this industry forward. Founders are building new products, LPs are bringing liquidity, traders are finding new uses, and infrastructure teams are making the whole thing work.
It's a privilege to be in the trenches with all of you.
We are still early, and there is a huge amount left to build. It will also take time and effort for the old guard to get onboard. This is worth fighting for.
SwingHook has passed Uniswap Labs’ Hook routing review and is now eligible for routing through the Uniswap Interface.
Thank you to the @Uniswap team for the careful review and for supporting independent developers building with v4 Hooks.
Proud to be building on Uniswap v4. 🦄

Shared 3 Eth plays so far and have dropped deep thesis on the first.
However, the 2nd Eth play mentioned ( ethereum:0xcf4d29f14cc585ddd1167f956092852af844e040) has currently ran from 1.4m to 3.4m mcap showing strength, huge attention and adoption across the web3 ecosystem.
So here's what @PrismMothership is about. 👇
Prism is trying to turn owning a token into automatically owning a piece of a liquidity business.
Normally in DeFi:
Traders buy a token and simply just hold the token till it either pumps or prolly dumps.
However, if they want yields on their holdings, they would have to separately provide liquidity, and then receive LP tokens, thereby managing these positions manually.
Prism tries to combine these things instead;
By holding the token, users gain exposure to liquidity + potential fee revenue.
Think of it like owning shares of a vending machine.
For traditional crypto token, you own the vending machine sticker.
What Prism brings to the table?Owning the sticker also gives you a claim on some money generated by the vending machine.
What problem is Prism solving?
Liquidity is one of the biggest problems in DeFi.
For instance, for every new token that launches, the team needs;
■ ETH liquidity
■ Stablecoin liquidity
■ Market makers
■ LP providers.
However, these traditional liquidity providers also face problems such as;
1. Impermanent loss
User deposit ETH + a token.
If the token pumps hard, your LP position may underperform simply holding the token.
2. Complexity
Normal users don't understand:
■ LP ranges
■ Fees
■ Rebalancing
■ Risk Management
3. Liquidity fragmentation
Every new protocol creates its own pools.
@PrismMothership thesis is:
"What if token ownership and liquidity ownership could be merged into one simple asset?"
The interesting part of Prism mechanics is its use of Uniswap v4 hooks.
Uniswap v4 introduced hooks, smart contract extensions that allow developers to customize what happens before/after swaps.
@PrismMothership uses this to create a different liquidity model where;
■ PRISM token interacts directly with liquidity mechanics.
■ Holders can receive value from trading activity.
■ Liquidity management is automated through the protocol design.
Why could this narrative matter?
This sits inside a few strong crypto narratives;
1. DeFi 2.0 / Yield-bearing tokens
The market and its participants has always wanted and asked questions like.
"Can my token do something besides go up or down?"
For instance,
staking
revenue sharing
real yield
buybacks
ethereum:0xcf4d29f14cc585ddd1167f956092852af844e040 fits into this direction.
2. Uniswap v4 ecosystem Advancement and Growth.
With the @Uniswap v4 is becoming a major infrastructure layer, projects like Prism building innovative hooks could become valuable if v4 adoption grows.
At this rate, ethereum:0xcf4d29f14cc585ddd1167f956092852af844e040 to $1000 isnt far fetched, and guess what? There are only 5000 Total supply of Prism tokens and still just 560 holders, so heavy supply shock and crazy demand incoming for this tech.
We are early.
