Is-a-fork-of
Uniswap (v2 + v3)'s assessment for RD-F-126 — scored not_applicable on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
Both V2 and V3 are original Uniswap Labs protocols, not forks of any upstream. V2 redesigned from V1 by the same team. V3 is an entirely new concentrated-liquidity design independent of V2. No upstream fork relationship in either GitHub repo. Pre-marked per profile flag `cat_8_not_applicable_both_versions: true`.
Detail #
V2 GitHub repo (https://github.com/Uniswap/v2-core) has no upstream fork relationship. V3 GitHub repo (https://github.com/Uniswap/v3-core) has no upstream fork relationship. Both are original designs with independent whitepapers documenting their novel contributions. V2 has itself been forked by SushiSwap, PancakeSwap, and many others — but V2 is the original, not the fork.

Methodology #
Identify the upstream protocol this is a fork of (if any) via bytecode similarity, function-selector set overlap, or team declaration.
