The teams at Uniswap Labs and Uniswap Foundation have introduced<\/a> the UNIfication governance proposal, which includes activating a ‘fee switch’ to reward UNI token holders. The asset’s price surged by 30%.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, the coin is trading at $8.76, having gained ~70% over the week and ~41% over the month, according to CoinGecko<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The initiative’s co-authors include protocol founder Hayden Adams, Uniswap Foundation’s executive director Devin Walsh, and researcher Kenneth Ng.<\/p>\n

The plan involves directing a portion of trading fees towards burning UNI to reduce supply. Sequencer fees from Unichain will also be used for this purpose.<\/p>\n

The initiative includes a one-time removal of 100 million tokens from the project’s treasury. This amount represents fees that could have been burned since UNI’s launch.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Uniswap Labs will cease charging fees for using its interface, wallet, and API<\/span>.<\/p>\n

UNIfication also proposes relocating teams from Foundation to Labs. The latter is responsible for the core development of the protocol and the L2<\/a> network Unichain. Following the reorganization, the company will assume operational functions for ecosystem development and funding.<\/p>\n

“We propose a long-term model for the Uniswap ecosystem, where protocol usage incentivizes UNI burning,” the proposal states.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

According to Adams, the team delayed implementing the fee collection mechanism “largely due to a hostile regulatory environment.”<\/p>\n

Today, I\u2019m incredibly excited to make my first proposal to Uniswap governance on behalf of @Uniswap<\/a> alongside @devinawalsh<\/a> and @nkennethk<\/a> <\/p>\n

This proposal turns on protocol fees and aligns incentives across the Uniswap ecosystem<\/p>\n
