Arb recapture

Partner integration, betaLive

Keeps arbitrage value with the pool instead of outside MEV bots.

What The Hook's executor runs the arb recapture, and if it cannot, the trade goes through without it.

On new pools

What The Hook takes 25% of each arb recapture's profit and Hookr takes 25%, the same on every pool.

King of the Pool fills its pot from each arb recapture: on Hookr's hook the round's winner takes the whole pot, with no ceiling, with or without LP Rewards and Auto Burn. The prize is capped only on a hook you deploy, at half of Hookr's share of LP Rewards and Auto Burn on the winning buy, so a hook you deploy needs one of them on.

Of what is left, the trader named on the swap gets 25% by default and in-range LPs 75%.

King of the Pool

The biggest buy of each round takes the whole pot arb recapture fills.

Pot share

The pot takes this pool's whole share of every arb recapture after What The Hook's and Hookr's cuts. LPs earn the pool's base fee, plus the pot's release from a round with no winner.

Least buy that counts

In the quote's own units, pre-filled so a dust buy cannot take the crown: 0.01 ETH, 0.01 WETH, 25 USDG, 1,000 HOOKR, else 0.1% of the pool's quote depth. The contracts take any amount above zero.

An amount in the pool's quote, set at launch

King of the Pool is live on ETH/HOOKR, on the whole-pot core (0x10f6…55f7, module 0x60ef…d649): the round’s winner takes the whole pot, with no ceiling. Every King of the Pool launch on Hookr’s hook binds it, or Wallet Cap’s core if it takes Wallet Cap.

King of the Pool has its own page, with how it runs and the contracts it runs on.

  • King of the Pool without itKing of the Pool runs inside arb recapture, so it needs arb recapture on.
  • King of the Pool without LP Rewards or Auto Burn, on a hook you deployOn Hookr's hook, King of the Pool runs on the whole pot, with or without LP Rewards and Auto Burn, and the round's winner takes all of it with no ceiling. On a hook you deploy, its prize is capped at half of Hookr's share of LP Rewards and Auto Burn, so it needs one of them on there.
  • Zap Relay targetA Zap Relay target's pool launches without arb recapture: only its zap vaults may buy, so every arb recapture buy would be refused.

How it behaves

It wraps the native stack rather than joining it: this hook’s sealed profile carries the default hook’s module set, so all five blocks and their parameters stay as they are.

Creators earn through their in-range LP share. Attaching it is free and never touches the pool fee.
