Uniswap, the top DEX in cryptocurrency, handles roughly $2 billion in daily trading volume, producing hundreds of millions in annualized fees based on data from platforms like DeFiLlama.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, these fees went entirely to liquidity providers, leaving UNI holders with only governance rights and no direct tie to the exchange\u2019s performance.<\/p>\n<p>Now, a portion of fees will flow to an on-chain system specifically built to reduce token supply through burns. This creates a direct connection: higher platform usage leads to more tokens removed from circulation, which could support price appreciation over time.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the approval triggers a one-time retroactive burn of 100 million UNI tokens from the treasury.<\/p>\n<p>Valued at approximately $590 million based on recent market prices, this action compensates for potential fees that might have accumulated since Uniswap\u2019s launch in 2018 if the switch had been enabled earlier.<\/p>\n<p>The changes will take effect following a short governance timelock period, solidifying Uniswap\u2019s evolution toward greater sustainability and alignment between protocol growth and token holders.<\/p>\n<h2>UNI price signals reversal around $5.90<\/h2>\n<p>Following the proposal\u2019s passage, UNI has shown signs of building momentum, trading around the $5.90 level as markets digest the deflationary implications.<\/p>\n<p>Technical indicators point to a potential bullish reversal after a period of consolidation.<\/p>\n<p>As the chart below shows, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) currently hovers above the neutral territory near 53. It\u2019s upsloping and indicating neither overbought nor oversold conditions. This positioning leaves ample room for upward movement without immediate risk of exhaustion. It suggests buyers could step in aggressively on positive developments.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_355353\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-355353\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-source=\"CoinJournal\" class=\"size-full wp-image-355353\" src=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/UNIUSD_2025-12-26_16-34-32.png\" alt=\"Uniswap Price Chart\" width=\"2040\" height=\"972\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-355353\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/symbols\/UNIUSD\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Uniswap price chart<\/a> by TradingView<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>More encouraging is the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), where the histogram has turned positive in recent readings. This reflects growing bullish momentum, and a classic setup for trend reversals.<\/p>\n<p>Analysts note that sustained momentum here could propel UNI toward short-term targets. In this context, the $6.50-$6.60 range could prove crucial for bulls if volume increases.<\/p>\n<p>The combination of these indicators, alongside the fundamental catalyst from the fee activation and supply reduction, supports an optimistic price outlook. As protocol activity ties directly to token burns, UNI appears poised for renewed strength in the coming months.<\/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-as-100m-uni-burn-proposal-passes\/\">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\u2019s token UNI traded at $5.90 on December 26, 2025.
