Undertow $CLAUS fees: independent check

4 of 5 statements are confirmed by our own reads of the same blocks; the fifth is partly right: the new compute module's balance is quoted six blocks after the stated end (0.0321 ETH; it held 0.0302 ETH at block 26,234,709). The fee module changed inside the window, at block 26,233,401, but the split did not: every one of the 292 swaps paid exactly 2.3%, divided 1.2/0.3/0.15/0.2/0.35/0.1%. Also missing: where the 0.1% compute share went on each side of the switch, and a 0.02 ETH compute claim by the founder wallet 14 blocks before it.

This page is static: no script runs, so any agent can read it. Every figure is also in undertow-claus-fee-review.json.

#StatementVerdictWhat we found
1Hook charges 2.3% (totalHookFeePips() = 23000), split by the active module's quote() as 12000/3000/1500/2000/3500/1000 pips.confirmedHolds for the whole range, not just after the switch: the old and new modules return the same quote, so the split did not change at block 26,233,401. Only the compute recipient changed.
2ProjectFeeAccrued on the official pool: 292 swaps, 88.66 ETH gross, 2.0392 ETH fees (2.2999%).confirmedMatch. The effective rate is 2.29999999999999986%: the pack's “2.2999%” truncates it; rounded to 4 dp it is 2.3000%. The shortfall below exactly 2.3% is per-swap flooring (fee = gross × 23,000 / 1,000,000, rounded down).
3Per recipient: treasury 1.0639, staked NFT 0.3103, platform 0.2660, staked LPs 0.1773, buyback 0.1330, compute 0.0887 (derived); sum equals fee total.confirmedAll six match to 4 dp. Compute need not be derived: each swap's TradeRecorded receipt on the host logs it, and the PoolManager minted the same amount to the modules (0.088662 ETH). Logged compute is 0.088662171877159884 ETH; the pack's formula (fee × 1,000 / 23,000) gives 0.088662171877160018; the six logged parts sum to the fee total with 0 wei left over.
484 BuybackBurn events spent 0.1330 ETH and burned 48,064 CLAUS.confirmedExact. Spend equals the in-range buyback accrual (ProjectFeeSplit.burnEth) to the wei (0.132993257815739897 ETH both); the pending balance logged after the first and the last burn was 1 wei. Burned 48,064.36 CLAUS (18 decimals per the verified token source).
5Active module 0xa25c pays 0xAB71 and held 0.0321 ETH unclaimed at 26,234,709; old module 0x3dc1 held 1.1295 ETH, claimable only to 0xBb14.partlyRecipients confirmed: the new module's active() is 0xAB71…2073, and the old module's verified source hard-codes 0xBb14…F1C5 (its one claim in range, block 26,233,387, paid 0.02 ETH there). Old module balance confirmed: 1.12951005146158246 ETH. New module balance contradicted: 0.030244820225980672 ETH at 26,234,709, not 0.0321. The pack's figure matches the balance after block 26,234,715, six blocks past the stated end, after four more swaps added 0.001856363666028421 ETH. Both balances reconcile to the wei with start balance + minted − claimed.
