Uniswap (UNI) increased by 20.26% following a new proposal offered by Uniswap Foundation and Uniswap Labs to enhance the value of the token. The proposal of UNIfication stated that the most important changes to be considered in UNI are to make it more attractive to investors and to raise its market price.
A protocol-level fee switch is one of the most outstanding features of the proposal. This characteristic will allow the burning of UNI tokens, which would decrease the total supply. Reducing the supply of tokens will result in the scarcity of UNI, which should also increase its value.
The proposal involves incineration of 100 million UNI, approximately 16% of the existing supply. Such a decline in supply will serve to enhance supply-demand forces, which may render UNI more valuable in the long term.
Besides the token burn, Uniswap will also launch a system of Auctions of Protocol Fee Discounts. This system will deliver greater rewards to liquidity providers, which will make them participate more in the Uniswap exchange.
Uniswap will benefit from attracting higher levels of liquidity and usage of their platform by providing greater incentives to provide liquidity. The move will likely make Uniswap the leading decentralized exchange and increase the demand of the UNI tokens.
Uniswap is also adding its Unichain solution, built on Ethereum Layer 2, to the UNI burn mechanism. Unichain has earned $7.5 million in annualized payments since its introduction, and this revenue will be used to burn UNI tokens. This will provide an extra source of revenue to assist the deflationary mechanism and an addition to increasing the worth of UNI.

The Uni Foundation is confident that the proposal of UNIfication will contribute towards consolidating the role of Uniswap in the decentralized exchange landscape. The foundation stated, “We believe this proposal positions the Uniswap Protocol to win as the default decentralized exchange for tokenized value.”

Since UNI has already surpassed the resistance level of $8.40, analysts recommend retesting the obsolete area of $8.40 and recommending new buyers to acquire between $7.60 and $8.40 with a narrow stop loss.
