Elysium, a new layer-2 blockchain developed by Kinetiq on Arbitrum Orbit, is integrating Uniswap contracts into its infrastructure. The network utilizes HyperEVM technology and the HYPE token for gas fees. It targets high-frequency traders with performance goals of 100-200 ms block times and 300 Mgas/s throughput.
The integration includes Uniswap V3 pools, with V2 routers and V4 deployments currently queued for the testnet. Launchpads such as Supercolony and Citadel will facilitate token launches by directing assets into locked liquidity pools quoted against HYPE, bypassing traditional bonding curves.
The public testnet launched on September 22, 2026, with the mainnet scheduled for November 9, 2026. The mainnet chain ID is 999, while the testnet uses 998. Currently, there are no official figures for total value locked or trading volume.
The integration is limited to on-chain deployments, and Uniswap Labs has not announced official support or a partnership. Investors are advised to note that the current implementation relies on open-source code rather than formal backing from the protocol's core developers.
