burn of 100 million UNI tokens.<\/p>\n<p>This move, tied to the recently proposed \u201cUnification\u201d governance vote, seems to have sparked optimism among investors, with UNI seeing a notable spike in trading volume over the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>The gains for Uniswap come after a recent slump and amid broader market weakness that has altcoins mirroring Bitcoin\u2019s struggles.<\/p>\n<h2>Uniswap price eyes gains above $5.20<\/h2>\n<p>At the time of writing on Thursday, December 18, 2025, Uniswap\u2019s price hovered around $5.24.<\/p>\n<p>Intraday gains stood at nearly 4% as bulls looked to bounce off lows of $4.87.<\/p>\n<p>This uptick comes on the heels of a recent sell-off below $5.40, which came amid Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/uniswap-price-outlook-as-ethereums-vitalik-buterin-offloads-uni-tokens\/\">selling<\/a> of 1,400 UNI tokens.<\/p>\n<p>Initial pressure on the token\u2019s value pushed it to $4.99.<\/p>\n<p>Bulls bounced to $5.30 as Bitcoin showed a sharp uptick earlier in the week.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_354487\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-354487\"

the market appears to have shrugged off this uptick as selling pressure resumed and prices plunged to under $4.90.<\/p>\n<p>Now UNI is eyeing a potential bounce as buying interest resurfaces.<\/p>\n<p>The token\u2019s ability to recover and eye gains above the $5.20 support level will likely strengthen as the community weighs a new governance vote on fees and the potential token burn.<\/p>\n<h2>Uniswap poised for 100 million UNI burn<\/h2>\n<p>As noted, one potential catalyst for UNI\u2019s price gains lies in the \u201cUnification\u201d proposal.<\/p>\n<p>Hayden Adams, Uniswap founder, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/haydenzadams\/status\/2001566377656602705\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">submitted<\/a> a governance proposal for voting on December 18, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>As detailed in his X post, the voting period is scheduled to commence on December 19 at 10:30 PM EST and will conclude on December 25, allowing the Uniswap community to decide the protocol\u2019s future.<\/p>\n<p>If the proposal garners the required votes in favour, it will pass. There\u2019s a two-day time lock period before Uniswap executes its token burn.<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, the proposal looks at the removal of 100 million UNI out of circulation. The key is the flipping of the fee switches for v2 and v3 pools on the mainnet.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cv2 + v3 fee switches will flip on mainnet and begin burning UNI, along with Unichain fees,\u201d Hayden noted.<\/p>\n<p>As the community prepares to vote, the outcome of this proposal could mark a pivotal moment for the Uniswap price.<\/p>\n<p>The token traded at highs of $7.70 in mid-November.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/uniswap-price-gains-amid-potential-100m-uni-burn\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : CoinJournal: Latest Crypto News, Altcoin News and Cryptocurrency Comparison ) Uniswap price eyes gains above $5.20 after bouncing off lows of $4.87.
