Uniswap Founder Responds to Launchpad Fee Policy: The 2% Spread on Trades is the Launchpad's Primary "Rug Pull" Tool

BlockBeats News, August 6th, Uniswap founder Hayden Adams responded to community questions, stating that the 1% liquidity pool fee used by some token issuance platforms is equivalent to about a 2% bid-ask spread. This fee structure serves as their primary revenue extraction method, increasing not only traders' costs but also potentially leading to efficiency loss in the initial liquidity pool as the token scales.

He believes that Uniswap's self-built pools.trade, which adopts a 0.25% fee and fee auto-compounding, is more conducive to long-term liquidity. In contrast, LPs on issuance platforms typically provide assets from zero-cost locked positions and do not face price risks requiring high fee compensation.
