High-Level Architecture

The illustration below shows how the Alphix Hook connects with Uniswap v4, users, and external partners. By building directly on the protocol, Alphix introduces new financial products and capabilities that synergistically enhance the entire Uniswap ecosystem.

On the left is the Uniswap V4 infrastructure consisting of Pool Manager, Position Manager and Router. Unified Pools are launched on top of this infrastructure, but they rely on the single, shared Alphix Hook that adds powerful products.

The illustration below shows user interaction flows to explain how Alphix works in tandem with Uniswap. It traces the process from a trader's (and Liquidity Provider's) initial action through the stack to the Alphix Hook, which interacts with a Fee Manager to enable the Dynamic Fee feature.

Depending on the feature, the Alphix Hook requires an externally owned address to call functions. In the Dynamic Fee product, this role is filled by a Fee Manager who executes the algorithm randomly depending on Pool Type.
