PANews reported on November 13th that Uniswap announced the launch of Continuous Clearing Auctions ( CCA ), which enables newly issued or low-liquidity tokens to drive liquidity and conduct open price discovery on Uniswap v4 . CCA operates entirely on-chain, setting a single clearing price per block, prioritizing higher bids, distributing shares proportionally to bids at the same price, and paying the same price to all successful bidders. Proceeds are automatically pooled in v4 after the auction ends. The first partner project is Aztec , and an optional ZK Passport module is provided for private and verifiable participation. Projects can customize options such as the quantity sold, starting price, duration, and batching.
