About Uniswap

The largest decentralized exchange on Ethereum and the inventor of the AMM model.

Uniswap is a decentralized exchange (DEX) protocol built on Ethereum that introduced the automated market maker (AMM) model to mainstream DeFi. Instead of a traditional order book, Uniswap uses liquidity pools where users provide token pairs and earn trading fees proportional to their share. UNI is the governance token that allows holders to vote on protocol changes.

Uniswap processes billions of dollars in trading volume daily and is the most-used DEX on Ethereum and its layer-2 networks. Liquidity providers earn fees from all trades in their pools. UNI holders vote on fee switches, protocol deployments, and grant allocations. Uniswap v4 (launched 2024) introduced "hooks" — programmable extensions for custom pool logic.
