In short
- Standard Chartered is predicting a nearly 40x rise in UNI’s value by 2030 as Wall Street moves virtual businesses around the world.
- Uniswap’s automated market maker and fixed rules put it as the first, first-tier open market, analyst Geoff Kendrick wrote.
- The opening of the “fie switch” at the end of 2025 has fueled the decline of the token, which burns about 1% of UNI tokens annually.
Unauthorized‘s native token is expected to increase by almost forty in the coming years, a very successful performance Bitcoin and Ethereum as Wall Street moves on-chain, according to Geoff Kendrick of Standard Chartered.
Like go DeFi platform, and central exchange is poised to benefit from the surge in digital assets that represent traditional businesses, a global bank’s head of digital assets shared in a note on Monday – as he pencils in a $100 value by 2030.
Kendrick’s reasoning stems from Uniswap’s neutrality, which allows Wall Street firms to build on its platform with confidence that the underlying rules will not change as things stand. Along those lines, he compared Uniswap to YouTube and Coinbase to Netflix.
“For TradFi institutions, Uniswap should not be seen as a DEX trading program and more The market infrastructure that TradFi can integrate is once tokenized all assets are TradFi users want to connect them to DeFi,” Kendrick said.
On Monday, Uniswap’s UNI token changed hands at around $2.72, an increase of 9.8% over the previous day, according to CoinGecko. Although the decentralized exchange platform has long been proven great, the price of the connection token rose to about $45 five years ago.
Since its launch in 2018, Uniswap has facilitated more than $3.7 trillion in transactions, of which it has paid out $5.6 billion, according to DeFiLlama.
By the end of the decade, Standard Chartered expects the value of digital assets stored or stored in the DeFi protocol to reach $2.7 trillion. As a result, fee pools on Uniswap could have 37x more assets to sell on-chain by then, Kendrick said.
There is a correlation between Uniswap’s protocol fees and trading volume, which means that as the economy increases, the “UNIfication” upgrade of the platform at the end of 2025 will cause more burning, he added.
Kendrick said UNI’s net income has dropped to about $895 million from $1 trillion since the fines began in December — a squeeze fueled by a high rate of burnout along with a year-over-year growth rate of about 1%.
Despite having established the DeFi space for years, Kendrick argued that Uniswap faces threats from smaller players who can create competing solutions for specific situations. On top of that, he wrote that headwinds could come from the creation of regulations to follow around tokenization.
However, Mr. Kendrick noted that a more reliable way to create sustainable products for the use of sustainable development is beginning to emerge. In February, BlackRock he announced that its money market fund, BUIDL, will be available through the UniswapX-protocol for trading – offering the asset through the Securitize trading platform.
At the time, the world’s largest asset manager planned to buy UNI’s shares, a person familiar with the matter said. Decrypt. Kendrick, meanwhile, revealed on Monday that the digital price will reach $6.50 by the end of the year.
