Launch of Flash Blocks for Uni Chain delivers 200ms swaps, achieved by embedding Trusted Execution Environments into sequencer design so blocks are built faster and ordering comes with cryptographic proofs (Flash testations). Uni Chain posts data to Ethereum L1, integrates with the Uniswap wallet, and uses TEEs to enable privacy, MEV redistribution, and runtime signals that let liquidity providers update prices or apply dynamic fees. Argument: AMMs compress state so they outperform order books for low‑latency onchain trading.
