Uniswap Launches Continuous Clearing Auctions on Base

The feature gives Base builders on-chain price discovery with automatic liquidity at the auction’s final price.

Overview

  • Uniswap confirmed the Base deployment on Jan. 22, making CCA available to all developers on a permissionless basis.
  • CCA runs on-chain auctions that clear bids block by block to establish a market price before open trading begins.
  • When an auction concludes, liquidity is seeded automatically into a Uniswap v4 pool at the final cleared price.
  • The model is designed to curb sniping, front-running, and bundled transactions while removing manual pool creation.
  • The rollout expands Uniswap v4 tooling after initial CCA use in late 2025, including by Aztec Network, alongside broader integrations with Revolut, Ledger, and deployments on Monad and X Layer.
