Uniswap ’s native token is set to surge nearly fortyfold in the coming years, outperforming Bitcoin and Ethereum as Wall Street migrates on-chain, according to Standard Chartered’s Geoff Kendrick.
Key facts
- Since it was established in 2018, Uniswap has facilitated more than $3.7 trillion in trading volume, while netting $5.6 billion in fees, according to DeFiLlama
- On Monday, Uniswap’s UNI token changed hands around $2.72, a 9.8% increase over the past day, according to CoinGecko
- Kendrick noted that UNI’s total supply has fallen to roughly 895 million from 1 trillion since the protocol's fee activation in December—a supply squeeze bolstered by a massive retroactive burn
- As a go-to DeFi platform, the decentralized exchange is poised to benefit from an influx of digital assets that represent traditional investments, the investment bank’s global head of digital assets
Summary
Standard Chartered forecasts a nearly 40x increase in UNI’s price by 2030 as Wall Street migrates real-world investments on-chain. Uniswap’s automated market maker model and fixed rules position it as the premier, open market-infrastructure layer, analyst Geoff Kendrick wrote. The platform’s late-2025 “fee switch” activation has bolstered the token’s scarcity, currently burning roughly 1% of the UNI token supply annually. As a go-to DeFi platform, the decentralized exchange is poised to benefit from an influx of digital assets that represent traditional investments, the investment bank’s global head of digital assets shared in a Monday note—while penciling in a price target of $100 by 2030.
