Coinbase Unveils Verified Pools: A New Era for DeFi & Onchain Liquidity

Coinbase has launched Verified Pools, a new DeFi initiative that integrates KYC verification with onchain liquidity. Using Coinbase Verifications, users from select regions can connect their wallets to Verified Pools, receiving a "trusted badge" for enhanced security and reduced counterparty risk. 

Built on Uniswap v4, the platform utilizes smart contract "hooks" for customized functionality. Additionally, Coinbase collaborates with Gauntlet to optimize liquidity pool configurations and ensure market integrity.
