About UNI
Uniswap (UNI) is the governance token of the Uniswap decentralized exchange (DEX), which operates on the Ethereum blockchain. Launched in 2018, Uniswap revolutionized decentralized finance (DeFi) by enabling peer-to-peer trading of ERC-20 tokens without intermediaries. Using an Automated Market Maker (AMM) model, Uniswap replaces traditional order books with liquidity pools, where users provide liquidity and earn transaction fees. UNI token holders can participate in governance decisions, shaping the future of the protocol. With low fees, open access, and robust security, Uniswap is widely adopted as a key infrastructure in DeFi.
