Uniswap founder Hayden Adams said the team renounced all creator fees from “Uniswap employee testing” after tokens created during Pools testing were discovered, redirecting the fees to an automated buy-and-burn contract.
TradePools said Wednesday that test tokens made while building Pools no longer carry a creator-fee path back to Uniswap Labs. It said all past and future creator fees now route to a programmatic buyback-and-burn mechanism.
Adams said the team had not expected the test tokens to be discovered. His post did not name the tokens or state how much had accrued in creator fees.
TradePools launched Aug. 5 as a Uniswap launchpad on Robinhood Chain.
TradePools said the redirected fees are released as ETH and that anyone can claim the ETH by burning the corresponding token. In practical terms, the claimant gives up tokens to receive ETH from the creator-fee stream, while the burned tokens are removed from circulation.
