Uniswap Labs launched aggregator hooks on Ethereum, Base, and Robinhood Chain on October 22, letting its app and API route swaps through outside venues such as Curve, Fluid, and PancakeSwap. Separately, trading aggregator 0x has disputed Uniswap's protection against malicious third-party hooks, following a September study. For traders, the change could affect where swap liquidity comes from and how safe hook-based trading is.

Bitcoin fell 1.71% over 24 hours to about $80,102, and most major coins also declined, with only 53 of 295 tracked coins higher. The most likely reasons are the Federal Reserve's hawkish hold on interest rates, with traders now pricing a December hike, and a tech stock selloff that pushed investors away from riskier assets. Leveraged traders also took heavy losses, with $356 million in crypto futures liquidations.
