🤑 Uniswap’s “UNIfication” Could Make UNI the Bee’s Knees of Buybacks! 🦄

by

By Jove, what ho! Uniswap’s old chap Hayden Adams has whipped up a corker of a proposal, dubbed “UNIfication,” which promises to turn the DEX world on its head and potentially shower UNI holders with a cool $38M in monthly buybacks. Toodle pip to the bears, I say! 🐻↙️

The Lowdown on This Spiffing Scheme

  • The plan, old sport, involves slicing the 0.3% trading fee like a perfectly buttered crumpet: 0.25% for the LPs and a nifty 0.05% for the protocol. What’s the result? A jolly good stash to buy and burn UNI tokens, of course! 🔥💰
  • One egghead analyst, @bread_, reckons this could rake in $38M monthly in UNI buybacks. That’s more than PUMP’s $35M, though still a tad behind HYPE’s whopping $95M. Not too shabby, eh? 📈🤯

Uniswap’s Grand Overhaul: A Bit of a Doozy

Hayden Adams, the chap behind Uniswap (UNI), has popped up with a proposal that’s as sweeping as a butler’s bow. “UNIfication” aims to spruce up the DEX’s revenue model and give UNI’s tokenomics a proper polish. 🧹✨

Today, I’m dashed excited to chuck my first proposal into the ring for Uniswap governance, alongside @devinawalsh and @nkennethk.

This little number switches on protocol fees and aligns incentives across the Uniswap ecosystem.

Uniswap’s been my cup of tea and sole focus for… 🫖🦄

The plan, my dear reader, activates protocol-level fees across Uniswap’s v2 and v3 pools for the first time. The 0.3% trading fee gets divvied up: 0.25% for liquidity providers and 0.05% for the protocol. All the dosh collected? Straight into buying and burning UNI tokens, reducing the circulating supply like a top-notch diet plan. 🔥📉

Adams also suggests a one-time burn of 100 million UNI from the treasury-a bit of housekeeping to account for tokens that would’ve vanished if fees had been in play since the beginning. And let’s not forget Unichain, which will toss some sequencer fees into the burn pot. 🏦🔥

There’s more, old bean! Structural and governance tweaks are on the cards, including a unified Labs-Foundation model, fee-discount auctions, and snazzy new aggregator features in Uniswap v4 to beef up revenue streams. 🛠️💼

Analyst Predicts $38M Monthly UNI Buybacks: A Jolly Good Show!

Crypto whiz @bread_ crunched the numbers using historical Uniswap data. With roughly $2.8 billion in annualized trading fees, the 0.05% protocol share could drum up about $38 million every 30 days for UNI buybacks. That’s enough to make even Jeeves raise an eyebrow! 🤔💸

According to this chap, UNI would outpace PUMP ($35M monthly) but still trail behind HYPE ($95M monthly)-two tokens currently making waves with their buyback models. Not a bad innings, though, what? 🏆🚀

Using historical numbers, here’s how $UNI would stack up against the buyback bigwigs.

→ 0.3% LP fee becomes 0.25% (LP)/0.05% (UNI)
→ 0.05% over ~$2.8B annualized fees and you get ~$38m in buybacks every 30d

Would put it ahead of $PUMP ($35M) and behind $HYPE ($95M) 🏇💨
