30-Day Change: +20%
Ticker: UNI About:Uniswap is one of the few DeFi protocols to see its token price increase over the past 30 days. The UNI token broke free from sector-wide weakness beginning November 4; it would more than double in price during the course of a six-day rally preceding this analysis, which culminated on November 10th with founder Hayden Adams unveiling a governance proposal to turn on protocol fees and align incentives across the Uniswap ecosystem. Although the Uniswap ecosystem has frequently contemplated the creation of UNI value drivers through governance, no such proposals have passed. Most recently, the Uniswap Foundation’s February 2024 proposal to enable fees was unexpectedly canceled after undisclosed complaints were raised by an unknown “stakeholder.” Token Catalysts:- Big Burn: Hayden Adams’ proposal would use Uniswap protocol fees to burn UNI. It would also burn Unichain sequencer fees and symbolically delete 100M UNI from the Uniswap Foundation treasury to represent the protocol fees that could have been burned if fees were turned on at token launch. This substantial reduction in token supply should theoretically have a positive impact on UNI prices.
- Enhanced Functionality: Adams also seeks to improve the Uniswap protocol. His proposal calls for the creation of “Protocol Fee Discount Auctions,” which could internalize MEV to improve LP performance, and the launch of aggregator hooks, which would turn Uniswap V4 into a DEX aggregator.
- Questionable Economics: If adopted in its entirety, Adams’ proposal will merge the independent Uniswap Foundation into Uniswap Labs. The joint venture will receive an annual 20M UNI stipend, a hefty $160M+ expense that critics contend is unlikely to be offset by protocol fees.
