Uniswap’s Price Surge: A Rather Dramatic Turn!

by

Oh, do pay attention, darling! Uniswap, that thoroughly modern phenomenon of a decentralized exchange – launched way back in 2018, can you imagine? – has decided to, well, do something. Their first governance proposal, rather grandly named “UNIfication” (one does rather adore the pretensions of these tech types 😉), has emerged from the brain of founder Hayden Adams. The idea? To actually charge fees and then, bless their little hearts, burn the UNI tokens. How…capitalistic!

The result? 📈 A frankly alarming 40% surge in UNI’s price. Reaching the dizzying height of $10, if you please. One almost feels sorry for those who sold it at a pittance yesterday. Almost.

Uniswap UNIfication Proposal

Mr. Adams, in a fit of industriousness, proposes this “UNIfication” business – activating protocol fees for the first time, and this burning system. Apparently, it’s all about rewarding those who provide liquidity (good show!) and token holders (even better!). A self-sustaining ecosystem, they call it. One shudders to think what happens if it isn’t self-sustaining….

They even intend to incinerate 100 million UNI from the treasury, in a retroactive burn. As if to say, “Oh dear, we should have done this ages ago!” 🤦‍♀️ Such forward thinking!

And, because one innovation simply isn’t enough, they’re planning “Protocol Fee Discount Auctions” where people can bid for the privilege of trading without fees. Heavens!

Uniswap Massive Buyback Plan

A chap called BREAD (a rather curious moniker, isn’t it?) from MegaETH Labs has been doing some calculations. If Uniswap were to adjust its fees – 0.25% to liquidity providers and a mere 0.05% to UNI buybacks – it could generate a rather substantial $38 million in monthly buybacks. Based on $2.8 billion in fees, naturally. It’s all so very…precise.

Using historical numbers, this is how $UNI would stack up against current buyback tokens.

→ 0.3% LP fee becomes 0.25% (LP)/0.05% (UNI)
→ 0.05% over ~$2.8B annualized fees and you get ~$38m in buybacks every 30d

Would put it ahead of $PUMP ($35M) and behind $HYPE ($95M)

This places the dear Uniswap just above PUMP’s $35 million and a tad below HYPE’s positively vulgar $95 million. A most profitable venture, wouldn’t you agree?

Community Vote Awaits Final Approval

It’s not merely the figures, you see. It’s the principle of the thing! This demonstrates that decentralized protocols can function…rather smoothly, while enriching both the users and the investors. A win-win! Though, one always considers the small print. 🧐

Approval would, apparently, lay the groundwork for long-term value growth, potentially turning UNI into a deflationary asset. How thrillingly dull!

The proposal requires the blessing of the community, a process involving comments, voting, and the inevitable execution. Twenty-two days of deliberation, imagine!

Uniswap UNI Token Jump 30%

The native UNI token enjoyed a rather boisterous surge – nearly 40% post-proposal, reaching a rather impressive $8.81. The RSI, naturally, climbed above 74, indicating…intense buying. How predictable!

Analysts, those oracles of finance, foresee a bullish outlook, with resistance near $12. Though, a minor correction to around $8 is anticipated before the next ascent. One must always remember the possibility of a fall, mustn’t one? 🥂
