<h3 id="5-upcoming-uniswap-v4-launch">5. Upcoming Uniswap V4 Launch</h3> 
<p>Uniswap v4’s launch should take place this week since it was postponed for Q3 and it hadn’t launched yet.</p> 
<p>According to an official Uniswap<a href="https://x.com/UniswapFND/status/1758146187318669666" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> post</a> via X, v4 should be the most rigorously audited code ever deployed on Ethereum.</p> 
<p>Its roadmap included the following:</p> 
<ol> 
 <li>Phase 1 – Code Freeze: Including core code completion, testing, gas optimizations, security enhancements, and finalizing the periphery.</li> 
 <li>Phase 2 – Auditing and Testnet: Including comprehensive auditing by multiple audit firms, and a community audit contest, along with the final adjustments to the code.</li> 
 <li>Phase 3 – Launch Push: v4 was pushed to Mainnet ETH in Q3 and should launch this week, but it’s not certain yet.</li> 
</ol> 
<p>Uniswap v4 will introduce a flash accounting system, allowing users to chain multiple actions in one transaction. These actions include swapping and adding liquidity.</p> 
<p>The system tracks token balances via the transaction and will ensure that all debts are settled. If this is not the case, the transaction is reversed – this would cut gas costs and boost efficiency.</p> 
<p><a href="https://crypto.ro/en/news/8-reasons-to-be-bullish-on-crypto-in-q4/">Q4</a> is about to begin and these are only some of the most important bullish events to watch at its debut.</p>
