1/ Clockworks is back.
a fee machine for any @ponsdotfamily token! It runs in your own repo, on your own wallet, every 15 minutes.
It claims your fees, splits them the way you set, buys your token back and burns it, fills a treasury, can pay a board of your holders, and prints every hash.

Two major things happening today.
Platform update shipping this morning, with a full changelog at release.
Founder AMA at 5PM EST / 9PM UTC, discussing roadmap, architecture, and an open Q&A.
We will see you there!
We know we’ll find bugs and edge cases as more hooks go live.
If you run into anything, join our Discord.
We’ll go through your launch with you and get it sorted.

Custom Programmable launches are live 🪝
The first launchpad where anyone can launch a custom @Uniswap v4 hook.
Build something unique, launch it on https://t.co/gh8Sd4OD81
The next few weeks are about onboarding developers and helping them launch their first custom hooks on Programmable.
We will be active in Discord and work directly with builders whenever a launch needs extra attention.
We also want to make building here worth it through regular hackathons and strong prizes.
At the same time, we are improving the review and security system, growing the team, and adding more chains. Robinhood Chain is the first one we are working toward.
The Plan is to give builders the freedom to choose the chain that makes the most sense for their project.
We have learned from past mistakes, so we will not announce timelines or features before they are ready.
We will keep building and show the progress as it happens.
We believe @Uniswap v4 hooks can become much more than anti snipe tools, or short lived Ponzis.
They can power new games, markets, creative assets, and onchain products we have not seen before.
We want https://t.co/gh8Sd4OD81 to be the place where those ideas get built and launched
A few people have messaged me about the new v4 launchpads showing up, and I keep seeing the same idea on my timeline: make it possible to launch a hook as quickly and easily as possible.
I understand why people are building that. I just think the more important problem is somewhere else.
For me, v4 is still too difficult for traders and investors to understand. Most people cannot look at a hook and quickly understand what it changes, what could go wrong, or why they might want to invest in the project behind it.
That is the part I care about making easier:
On the developer side, I actually think some work should remain. If you are asking people to put money into something, you should have to explain it properly.
You should have real docs, a website, public accounts, clear branding, and enough information for people to judge what they are buying.
I don’t want a single prompt to become a live project ten minutes later with nothing around it.
AI can help with the work, but it should not remove the need to do the work.
If launching becomes almost effortless, we will probably get many more projects, but not necessarily better ones.
Attention and liquidity get divided between all of them, and it becomes harder for serious projects to stand out.
Personally, I would rather see fewer launches that people have actually put time into.
That’s the tradeoff I’m thinking about with Programmable right now. I’m much more interested in making hooks understandable to the people buying them than in maximizing the number of hooks people can launch.
I know I don’t have the same starting point as some other founders.
When people already know and trust your previous work, they naturally give the next product you build more credibility. I understand that.
But I don’t see it as an excuse, I want to be judged by the work I put out and prove that I can deliver.
I want to earn that trust properly. I also want to be part of making onchain assets more creative in the next bull run.
That’s why seeing the first external custom hook launch through Programmable means a lot to me.
The first external project has now launched a fully custom Uniswap v4 hook through https://t.co/gh8Sd4OD81
We only wanted to mention it because it’s the first project to complete the full custom launch flow on the platform. This is not an endorsement or financial advice. Please do your own research and always trade at your own risk.
For us, this is mainly a technical milestone. We’ve been working our asses off on the infrastructure. Seeing the entire process work for a real project instead of one of our own tests is the proof we needed.
The core technology is live, and it works. We’re honestly just proud to see it happen.
Today, we’re focusing on the smaller details around the launch experience. We want project logos, websites, X accounts and other basic metadata to be required at launch, so people don’t have to waste time researching whether a project has even done the basics.
We’re also improving the indexer so new launches appear on the website quickly and can be traded properly from the start.
What’s left today is mostly cleanup.
Tomorrow, we start shifting our focus to Robinhood Chain
