🔥 UNI Ecological Epic Node! 100 million tokens destroyed + transaction fee switch voting countdown, DeFi leader value reconstruction underway 🚀
As the undisputed king of the DEX track, Uniswap is ushering in a key transformation that will decide its direction for the coming years — the 'Unification' proposal led by founder Hayden Adams has entered the final governance vote (from December 19 to 25), and if passed, will trigger three core benefits:
1. Hardcore deflation realization: directly destroying 100 million UNI tokens, equivalent to 1.58% of the circulating total (current circulation 629.91M), instantly enhancing token scarcity;
2. Fee switch activation: Transaction fees for Uniswap v2, v3 mainnet, and Unichain will flow back to the protocol, continuously used for UNI destruction, establishing a long-term deflation model;
3. Governance compliance alignment: Through the DUNA legal structure of Wyoming, clarifying the boundaries of responsibilities between Uniswap Labs and the DAO, reducing regulatory risks.
The market has already reacted: UNI is currently priced at $6.16 (≈¥43.45), soaring 16.96% in 24 hours, with trading volume surging to $12.41M, and the price range hitting a recent high of $5.26-$6.38. This surge is by no means just a short-term emotional speculation; behind it is the solid foundation of the Uniswap ecosystem:
✅ Cumulative trading volume surpassing $3 trillion, leading the market share in the DEX track for a long time;
✅ Unichain has achieved $1 billion in locked value and $8 billion in cumulative trading volume, with version 4 contributing 20%-30% daily active users, and over 700 v4 hooks deployed;
✅ Fully decentralized + no KYC threshold + transparent open source, user assets are fully held throughout the process, and security has been verified by the market for many years.
Of course, there are rational controversies within the community: some voices are concerned about the blurred governance boundaries between Labs and the DAO, or that liquidity providers may migrate assets due to adjustments in fee distribution. But it is undeniable that this proposal represents a crucial leap for Uniswap from a 'traffic giant' to a 'value capture giant' — transforming a massive trading volume into sustainable token empowerment, setting a new benchmark for the economic model of DeFi protocols.
Currently, UNI's market value is $3.872 billion (ranked 43rd globally), with 6 times the potential for growth remaining to reach the historical high of $4.506 billion. The voting results will soon be revealed; under the dual drive of deflation logic and ecological expansion, is the value reassessment of UNI just beginning?👇
