About Uniswap
Uniswap is the largest decentralised exchange (DEX) and a cornerstone of decentralised finance. Instead of an order book, it uses an “automated market maker” model, where users trade against pools of tokens supplied by other users, who earn fees for providing that liquidity.
UNI is Uniswap’s governance token: it lets holders vote on proposals about the protocol’s future. Uniswap runs on Ethereum and several other networks, and processes a large share of on-chain trading volume.
Uniswap is influential and widely used, but the value of the UNI token is tied to governance and the ongoing debate over whether and how the protocol’s fees might benefit token holders. DeFi also carries smart-contract and regulatory risk. UNI is volatile.
The story
Uniswap is the leading decentralised exchange, using an automated-market-maker model where users trade against community-supplied liquidity pools. UNI is its governance token.
The context
Uniswap’s usage and influence in DeFi are substantial, but UNI’s value hinges on governance and the unresolved question of fee value-accrual to holders — plus DeFi’s smart-contract and regulatory risks. It is volatile.
DEX trading volume and fees, the long-running “fee switch” governance debate over whether UNI holders share protocol revenue, and competition from other venues.
