The leak
When the real price moves, a pool still quotes the old one. Arbitrage bots trade the gap, and liquidity providers eat the loss. It's called LVR, and it's the biggest cost of providing liquidity.
Every time a price moves, bots trade against liquidity providers at the old price. HOOKFI charges those arbitrage swaps a tax. 80% goes straight back to LPs. 20% buys $HOOKFI and burns it. Normal trades pay nothing extra.

Everything below happens inside the swap itself. There's no off-chain part and no one to trust in the middle.

At the first swap of each block the hook records the price. Any swap that pushes price further from that anchor pays a tax sized to the move. Small moves in a free band, and moves back toward the anchor, pay nothing.
The tax splits in the same transaction. 80% is donated to in-range LPs. 20% waits in the hook until anyone sweeps it to the buyback, which swaps it for $HOOKFI and sends it to 0x…dEaD.
Same formula the contract uses. Pick a trade, see where the money goes.
Free band: 10 ticks (~0.1%). Tax cap: 5% of the trade. Capture rate is set in the contract; this slider shows what other settings would do.

When the buyback has ETH to spend. That ETH is the hook's 20% share, swept from Uniswap v4 pools that use the HOOKFI hook, so burns start once those pools see arbitrage. Before graduation the buyback buys straight off the Pons curve, after it through the Pons v4 pool. Every burn is a public transaction on the dashboard.
Only if it pushes the price further from where the block started, by more than the free band (10 ticks, about 0.1%). Small trades and trades that move price back toward the anchor pay nothing extra.
No. The anchor is set once per block, so splitting one big move into many small swaps in the same block pays about the same total. The test suite checks exactly this.
The hook calls donate on the pool in the same swap, which adds it to the fees of in-range liquidity. LPs collect it with their normal fees.
Anyone can call sweep to move it to the buyback. Buying $HOOKFI is keeper-only so there's always a slippage floor, and the output goes straight to the dead address.
No. It only works on Uniswap v4 pools created with the HOOKFI hook attached. The dashboard lists every hooked pool, and anyone can create one on Uniswap by pasting the hook address.
Yes. Every HOOKFI contract is verified on the Robinhood Chain explorer, and the addresses are in the contracts table above. The test suite covers retail swaps, arbitrage swaps, split trades, sweeps and burns.
