 Uniswap has launched its UNI token on Ethereum network
Another giant on Ethereum ‘s DeFi sector has introduced a governance model to engage its users. Uniswap, a decentralized trading platform, announced the launch of its governance token UNI on 17 September. 1 billion ERC-20 tokens will be released over the next four years, with the platform currently giving away 400 UNI to all platform users prior to 1 September. The activity of users in the protocol, with the aim of claiming their tokens, had a direct impact on the sharp increase of transaction fees in the Ethereum network.
