Uniswap Labs has introduced Permissioned Pools in its Uniswap v4 protocol, enabling regulated and permissioned assets like tokenized funds and equities to trade on automated market makers with compliance checks enforced at the protocol level. This new feature allows issuers to control which wallets can trade or provide liquidity directly through smart contracts, removing the need for external verification.
