“This interface fee is one of the lowest in the industry, and it will allow us to continue to research, develop, build, ship, improve, and expand crypto and DeFi,” Adams wrote, pointing to new developments in the Uniswap ecosystem such as “an iOS wallet, Android wallet, UniswapX, major improvements to our web app, Permit2, Uniswap v4 draft codebase, and more.” 


Uniswap is one of the most popular decentralized exchanges in the industry. Based on data from DefiLlama, the DEX currently has $3 billion in total value locked, generating upward of $271 million in annualized protocol fee revenue. It has $12 million in its treasury and has raised $176 million from investors since its inception in 2018.


Cointelegraph previously reported on Sept. 27 that Uniswap Foundation, the DEX’s developer, is targeting $62 million in additional funding for building infrastructure and ecosystem grants. On Oct. 15, a new hook available on an open-source directory for Uniswap v4 generated controversy for its ability to require Know Your Customer verification before trading in the DEX’s liquidity pools.
