The AMM at the heart of Warren — concentrated liquidity expressed through Liquidity Density Functions, the Uniswap v4 hook architecture, the auction-managed AMM (am-AMM), shapeshifting, autonomous rebalancing, surge fees, rehypothecation, and hooklets — was designed and built by the Bunni team.

Warren reuses Bunni V2's AMM as its execution layer and adds a governance-and-emissions layer on top: gauge-directed WRN emissions, deposit-only bWRN governance, and a bribe market that turns gauge votes into liquidity rentals. The credit for the underlying AMM tech belongs to Bunni.

Specifically, the following work originated with Bunni and is reused here:

  • The BunniHub / BunniHook / BunniZone / BunniQuoter core contracts (rebranded to WarrenHub / WarrenHook / WarrenZone / WarrenQuoter in this codebase).
  • Liquidity Density Functions (LDFs) and the rick-based liquidity model.
  • The auction-managed AMM (am-AMM) for MEV capture.
  • Surge fees, autonomous rebalancing, and the rehypothecation vault model.
  • Hooklets — the per-pool extension surface for custom logic.

If you're publishing research, docs, or integrations that touch the AMM layer, please cite Bunni. The Warren team's work is the layer above.
