UNI token review

UNI is a cryptocurrency token that was issued on Ethereum and used as a governance token in the Uniswap protocol.

About Uniswap

Uniswap is one of the first decentralized exchanges that allow users to swap different ERC-20 tokens in a trustless manner on Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, and other EVM-compatible blockchains.  

One of the most important innovations that Uniswap introduced to the public was the Automatic Market Making model (AMM), which allows the creation of liquidity pools and conducting trades in these pools rather than finding direct buyers or sellers. By providing liquidity to these pools, users earn trading fees in return and use liquidity tokens in different mining programs organized by this DEX. 

From the start, Uniswap became one of the most important protocols in the DeFi sphere and constantly introduced new features, such as optimized liquidity provision, enhanced trading features, etc.

UNI token use cases

  1. Governance. UNI holders can vote for protocol changes and direct the future protocol development
  2. Incentivization programs. UNI tokens can be used by the Uniswap team in different incentivization programs, including rewarding users who provided liquidity to the DEX (Liquidity mining) or encouraging participating users in other Uniswap products.
  3. Trading. The UNI token is listed on many popular exchanges, and it's the most popular token for trading on the Uniswap DEX.

UNI token economic review

UNI has a fixed total supply that is equal to 1 billion tokens; the current amount in circulation is 588 million tokens. The team planned to distribute all tokens in four years from its launch in September 2020. At the moment, the token's inflation rate is controlled by UNI holders through governance proposals. 

Distribution

A significant portion (around 60%) of the initial supply was distributed among Uniswap users: traders and liquidity providers. 21.51% was reserved for the Uniswap team with a 4-year vesting period. 0.69% went to advisers, and 17.8% was transferred to the Uniswap treasury and used for development of the Uniswap ecosystem.

The token value depends on the Uniswap ecosystem health, governance decisions of the main token holders, marketing conditions, and possible new government regulations that might be applied to crypto in the future.
