About Uniswap (UNI)

Uniswap is a decentralized exchange (DEX) for cryptocurrencies that was launched in November 2018 by Hayden Adams on Ethereum mainnet. A DEX lets you trade tokens directly via open-source smart contracts, eliminating the need for a centralized exchange (CEX) or intermediary, like a bank. In the case of Uniswap, you can trade (aka swap) tokens that are ERC-20, and therefore compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). 

Uniswap uses an Automated Market Maker (AMM) in lieu of traditional finance (TradFi) order books. Users add tokens to liquidity pools on the platform. In return for being a liquidity provider, you can earn a share of trading fees. When you want to trade tokens, Uniswap smart contracts calculate the exchange rate based on relative amounts tokens in the liquidity pool.

The native cryptocurrency of Uniswap is UNI, a utility token that is largely used for governance purposes. Holders of UNI can vote on decisions about the development and management of Uniswap. You can’t pay transaction fees with UNI. When trading, transaction fees are paid in the tokens being swapped.

UNI token holders are typically active DeFi investors and crypto protocol participants.

24h change: -1.68%. From $2.86 to $2.81.

  • Teams can now configure and launch onchain token sales directly in the Uniswap web app in four steps. The integration uses the continuous clearing auction mechanism to create fairer price discovery across blocks without manual smart contract deployment. This lowers barriers for projects and may drive more activity and liquidity to the platform.
  • Spark deployed initial pools for its Stablecoin FX Layer on Uniswap v4 to reduce fragmentation across stablecoins. The migration includes USDS paired with PYUSD and USDT and ranks among the largest in DeFi history. A custom DualPool hook developed with Uniswap Labs lets liquidity providers earn yield on idle assets pulled only when needed for swaps.
  • The bank issued research positioning Uniswap as neutral market infrastructure for institutions once tokenized real world assets scale. Projections include DeFi TVL reaching $2.7 trillion by 2030 with UNI potentially hitting $100. This reflects broader TradFi interest in onchain trading and liquidity for tokenized securities and stablecoins.

24h change: -0.96%. From $2.89 to $2.86.

  • Recent data indicates Uniswap token transfer volume has increased 233 percent with transaction counts up 196 percent. The protocol has processed $9.1 billion in real-world asset swaps across 2.6 million transactions and 140,000 wallets, driven largely by a tokenized S&P 500 product. Active addresses reached a four-month high while whale transactions hit a seven-month peak. These metrics reflect growing adoption of the decentralized exchange for both DeFi and traditional finance instruments.
  • The bank initiated coverage of Uniswap with a $100 price target for UNI by the end of 2030, implying roughly 35-40x growth from current levels near $2.90. The staged projection starts at $6.50 by end of 2026 and cites expected growth in tokenized assets and on-chain finance. The forecast has contributed to renewed interest, on-chain activity spikes, and whale transactions in the Uniswap ecosystem.
  • Tokenized versions of assets including shares linked to SpaceX, Apple, Tesla, and NVIDIA are now live and tradable on Uniswap. The Uniswap API powers approximately 31 percent of swaps within MetaMask after recent integration. Additional wallet partnerships with Zerion, Privy, and others have increased accessibility. These developments build on prior protocol upgrades including v4 hooks and the UNIfication fee mechanism.

24h change: -5.35%. From $3.02 to $2.86.

  • Standard Chartered initiated coverage of Uniswap with a long-term target of $100 for UNI by 2030, outlining stepped increases starting at $6.50 by the end of 2026. The report cites expected growth in tokenized assets traded in DeFi and Uniswap's central role as infrastructure. This forecast triggered a short-term price rally, higher whale transactions, and multi-month highs in network activity. It reflects growing institutional views on decentralized exchange tokens.
  • Tokenized stocks, bonds, yield-bearing assets and more from major names are now live for trading on the Uniswap web app, wallet, and API. Users access these with one tap and zero interface fees from Uniswap. This builds on strong wallet integrations, including powering roughly 31 percent of swaps in MetaMask. The rollout broadens the platform beyond crypto-native assets toward real-world asset use cases onchain.
  • Governance proposals under UNIfication have turned on protocol fees across more pools, directing revenue toward UNI buybacks, burns, and a proposed annual growth budget. Over 100 million UNI tokens have been burned. These changes follow earlier votes and aim to strengthen alignment between protocol usage, revenue, and token value. Implementation continues across chains with further votes expected.

24h change: +1.00%. From $3.05 to $3.08.

  • Standard Chartered initiated coverage of UNI with a $100 price target by 2030, roughly 30 to 40 times current levels near $3. The bank expects tokenized real-world assets to grow significantly and flow into decentralized platforms, with Uniswap acting as core trading infrastructure. It projects intermediate targets including $6.50 by the end of 2026. The report has contributed to recent price strength and highlights increasing traditional finance interest in DeFi governance tokens. Fee switch mechanics that support token burns were also noted as a positive factor.
  • Tokenized versions of stocks, bonds, and other securities from companies like Apple, Tesla, and NVIDIA are now discoverable and tradable on the Uniswap web app, wallet, and through its API. This expands the protocol beyond traditional crypto pairs into real-world asset trading. It builds on earlier partnerships that brought funds like BlackRock's BUIDL onchain. The development positions Uniswap as an interface for both DeFi and tokenized traditional assets.
  • The Uniswap API has powered over $126 million in swaps for MetaMask users and wins roughly 31 to 52 percent of routing decisions depending on the source. It provides competitive quotes and low failure rates. Similar integrations have rolled out with wallets including Zerion and Privy. These developments increase accessible Uniswap liquidity across different user interfaces and support broader adoption.

24h change: +0.29%. From $3.03 to $3.04.

  • Standard Chartered initiated coverage of Uniswap with a $100 price target for UNI by 2030, citing the expected growth of tokenized real-world assets flowing into decentralized finance. The bank sees Uniswap as foundational infrastructure that will capture significant volume from on-chain stocks, bonds and other assets. The note triggered a roughly 20 percent price surge for UNI in mid-June 2026, its longest winning streak in years, along with heightened on-chain metrics including four-month highs in daily active addresses and seven-month highs in large transactions. Uniswap's fee switch, activated in late 2025, routes trading fees toward token burns, removing over 100 million UNI from circulation and shifting its economics toward deflationary supply dynamics.
  • Uniswap's API has been integrated by multiple wallets including MetaMask, where it now powers approximately 31 percent of swaps on average after processing over $126 million. Zerion Wallet and Privy have also added native Uniswap-powered swaps supporting versions 2, 3 and 4. These integrations make decentralized trading more accessible directly within wallet interfaces. The developer platform launched earlier in 2026 with updated documentation, new liquidity provider tools and an AI toolkit to simplify building on Uniswap.
  • Uniswap now supports trading of tokenized real-world assets including shares tied to companies such as SpaceX, Apple, Tesla and NVIDIA. This expands the protocol beyond traditional crypto pairs into broader on-chain financial infrastructure. The development aligns with institutional interest in bringing traditional assets onchain and positions Uniswap to benefit from expected growth in tokenized asset volumes. It builds on prior partnerships such as the one with Securitize for BlackRock's BUIDL tokenized treasury fund.
