The Uniswap community voted unanimously in favor of a proposal that provides for the donation of a part of the protocol fees to the holders of the UNI token. The proposal called "UNI-DAO v2", aims to further decentralize the governance of the DEX and reward the project's loyal supporters.
How it will work
10% of the fees generated by the Uniswap protocol will be distributed to UNI token holders weekly via an airdrop.
UNI holders will be able to use the tokens received to participate in the governance of the protocol, voting on proposals relating to the future of the platform.
A good step forward for Uniswap and above all for the holders of its token which will help to decentralize governance, reward the loyalty of the project's supporters and increase the liquidity of its UNI token.
Surprisingly, but not too much, the UNI token has seen a surge in value in the last 14 days. The price rose more than 100% in 14 days and 142% in a month.
Conclusions
Uniswap is a market leading DEX with over $10 billion in value locked and its protocol has been experiencing significant growth in recent years and is expected to continue to grow in the future, especially given recent updates that reward holders.
It remains a revolutionary project that has the potential to change the way people trade cryptocurrencies, having a huge impact on the DeFi industry and playing a leading role in the future of finance.
