Recently, the Uniswap team has been heavily promoting its V4 hook feature, leading the community to speculate that the website may be related to a new platform or function coming with Uniswap V4. According to GMGN market data, FRONG's market cap surged to $4 million shortly after launch before pulling back, and is currently at $2.68 million.
