Uniswap (UNI)

What is Uniswap?

Uniswap is the largest decentralised exchange (DEX) on Ethereum. UNI is the protocol's governance token, allowing holders to vote on code changes and treasury allocation.

Uniswap's Automated Market Maker (AMM) model revolutionised on-chain trading by eliminating traditional order books. With Uniswap v4, the protocol introduces customisable hooks that allow pools to have custom fee and liquidity logic. Uniswap's monthly volume regularly exceeds $50 billion, generating fees distributed to liquidity providers.

Key data

Why analyse Uniswap with machine learning?

Trading volumes on Uniswap are directly correlated with overall crypto market activity and on-chain liquidity demand. During periods of high volatility, DEX volumes explode and drag UNI higher. Governance discussions around the fee switch, redistributing a share of fees to UNI holders, are a recurring catalyst that the model identifies.
