The token maintained an upward trajectory that has added $1 to its value since June 14. Market data showed UNI jumped from around $3 to an intraday peak of $3.70 before retreating and consolidating around $3.60.<\/p>\n<p>The jump also drove UNI\u2019s seven-day gains to nearly 50%, making it one of the best-performing digital assets during the period. Despite this, UNI\u2019s monthly gains stood at a paltry 3.1%, while its year-to-date loss of 37.3% suggests the current rally is a recovery rather than new demand or capital flowing into the asset.<\/p>\n<p>Still, the token\u2019s latest daily gain lifted its market capitalization from $1.87 billion to $2.2 billion, a level last seen May 22. The digital asset\u2019s surge comes on the heels of a report by banking giant Standard Chartered asserting that UNI will reach $100 by the end of 2030, outperforming <span>bitcoin<\/span> and ethereum.<\/p>\n<p>According to the bank, the <span>bullish<\/span> projection is based on its prediction that the value of <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/tokenized-rwa-market-hits-27b-as-us-treasury-products-lead-growth\/\">tokenized assets<\/a> active in <span>decentralized finance<\/span> ( <span>DeFi<\/span>), will grow 37-fold between now and the end of 2030, reaching $2.7 trillion in total assets locked. It also predicts tokenized assets on-chain will reach $4 trillion by the end of 2028. This <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/uniswap-ai-suite-seeks-to-streamline-autonomous-trading\/\">structural growth<\/a>, the bank argues, implies that Uniswap <span>liquidity pools<\/span> will handle 37 times more assets on-chain to trade by 2030.<\/p>\n<p>With user fees in the past month topping $53 million, Uniswap reportedly remains the number one <span>decentralized exchange<\/span>. This makes the possibility of UNI reaching Standard Chartered\u2019s forecasts \u2014 starting with $6.50 by the end of 2026 \u2014 plausible. However, critics like <span>crypto<\/span> venture analyst Omar Kanji panned Standard Chartered\u2019s inclusion of <span>liquidity<\/span> provider fees in making the case that UNI trades at a lower multiple than Coinbase\u2019s COIN.<\/p>\n<p>According to critics, <span>liquidity<\/span> provider fees do not belong to UNI token holders; they go directly to the individual <span>liquidity<\/span> providers taking on inventory risk. Conflating total pool <span>volume<\/span> fees with value that directly accrues to the UNI token artificially inflates Uniswap\u2019s apparent valuation health.<\/p>\n<p>Others warn that asset tokenization does not automatically guarantee a major boost to <span>decentralized exchange<\/span> <span>liquidity<\/span>. Because tokenized real-world assets will span multiple <span>blockchains<\/span>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-is-liquidity\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">liquidity<\/a> is highly likely to become fragmented. This fragmentation limits the depth and unified pricing capabilities of Uniswap\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-are-automated-market-makers\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">automated market maker<\/a> pools.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, while Standard Chartered\u2019s aggressive valuation offers a highly optimistic long-term outlook, the immediate path forward for Uniswap remains tethered to broader macroeconomic trends and structural hurdles. Until the platform can successfully navigate the challenges of fragmented <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-is-liquidity\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">liquidity<\/a> and prove that value directly accrues to token holders, UNI\u2019s recent rally may map a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-is-volatility\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">volatile<\/a> road toward recovery rather than a guaranteed climb to new heights.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/uni-climbs-23-in-a-day-as-standard-chartered-forecast-sparks-fresh-interest\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Bitcoin News ) Key Takeaways UNI surged 23% to clear $3.60 on Wednesday, capping a 50% seven-day recovery for the Uniswap token.
