ok @dish I've got some ideas I'd like to build on top of clanker. Some questions I have:
1. if I interact directly with the factory contract, is there any reason that custom uniV4 hooks wouldn't work? I know in the SDK you've hardcoded the clanker static/dynamic fee hooks as the only options there.

2. The pool configuration is roughly this, yeah? 
  - Starting Tick: -230400 (~$27,000 market cap equivalent)
  - Default Supply: 100 billion tokens
  - Paired Token: WETH (default)
  - Tick Spacing: 200

3. Is there a way to specify a different Paired Token? The "goal" is for a new clanker token to be a "dao" token (sorta like $anon) that enables holders to launch new clankers "as the collective/dao" and denominate their new tokens in their dao token (creating buy pressure on the dao token). I've figured out the dao part, but I'm not so sure on the Paired token part?

4. Last question: I assume it would be annoying to have to directly buy the dao token for each new launch, so some sort of router contract would be necessary. I see you can buy directly with ETH even if the paired token is WETH, so I assume it's hitting the WETH gateway? sorry I'm a bit of newb on this token routing stuff

How do you mean? It’s supposed to sorta function like the new Zora token model but for a collective/dao token on Clanker?

Doing #3 is a pointless exercise unless you want no investors on base.
