Standard Chartered Bank has initiated coverage of the decentralized trading protocol Uniswap, predicting that its UNI token could rise from the current approximately $2.7 to $100 by the end of 2030, representing an increase of nearly 40 times. Geoffrey Kendrick, the global head of digital asset research at Standard Chartered, stated that the next wave of wealth opportunities in the digital asset space may come from DeFi protocols. The core logic is that the scale of tokenized assets entering DeFi will significantly increase, thereby enhancing the trading asset base and fee potential of protocols like Uniswap.Standard Chartered expects that the scale of on-chain tokenized assets will grow from the current approximately $340 billion to $4 trillion by the end of 2028; of which the proportion entering DeFi will rise from the current approximately 3.5% to 30% by the end of 2030. Coupled with the growth of crypto-native assets, the locked assets in DeFi could reach approximately $2.7 trillion, an increase of about 37 times from the current level. Kendrick believes that if Uniswap can successfully commercialize and establish sufficiently scaled partnerships with traditional financial institutions, the valuation multiple between its market capitalization and trading fees is expected to increase, narrowing the gap with centralized trading platforms like Coinbase.Standard Chartered's projected price path for UNI is: $6.5 by the end of 2026, $20 by the end of 2027, $40 by the end of 2028, $65 by the end of 2029, and $100 by the end of 2030, and it is expected that UNI's performance during this period may outperform ETH and BTC.

According to Cointelegraph, Standard Chartered Bank predicts in its latest research report that by 2030, the locked assets in decentralized finance (DeFi) will reach approximately $2.7 trillion, growing about 37 times from current levels. The report points out that this growth will be primarily driven by the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) and the migration of crypto-native assets to on-chain protocols.Geoff Kendrick, Head of Digital Asset Research at Standard Chartered, stated that the next round of "structural growth opportunities" in digital assets will come from DeFi protocols, and it is expected that by 2030, the proportion of tokenized assets entering the DeFi system will increase from the current approximately 3.5% to about 30%.Current data shows that only about 3% of stablecoins and 10% of tokenized real assets are actually used in DeFi protocols, indicating significant room for penetration. The report also emphasizes that achieving the $2.7 trillion target will rely on the rapid expansion of tokenized asset scale and a significant improvement in on-chain capital efficiency. Previously, Standard Chartered predicted that by 2028, the scale of tokenized non-stablecoin real assets would reach $2 trillion, with money market funds and U.S. stocks becoming major components.At the infrastructure level, the report mentions that decentralized trading protocols like Uniswap could become important trading hubs for tokenized assets and notes that traditional financial institutions will focus more on security and stability when entering the on-chain market. However, analysts also warn that tokenization does not necessarily lead to increased liquidity, and fragmentation between different chains and asset standards may still limit market depth and unified pricing capability.

Uniswap posted on platform X that the asset management company Fidelity Investments has chosen Uniswap as the liquidity infrastructure for its stablecoin FIDD, and the FIDD liquidity pool has been launched on the Uniswap protocol.Previously, in February, it was reported that Fidelity's stablecoin FIDD was officially launched, open to retail and institutional investors.

According to Fortune, the crypto-focused venture capital firm Variant has completed the fundraising of its new fund, Variant 4, totaling $222 million. The fund will invest in projects at their earliest stages, focusing on the theme of "autonomy" to integrate AI and crypto applications.Partner Jesse Walden stated that in the future, the label "crypto investor" will disappear, and crypto will become a universal "underlying pipeline" like internet infrastructure. The core is to provide users and businesses with greater autonomy and security through decentralized and contract security architecture, supporting the development of applications including DeFi platforms Uniswap and Morpho.

Uniswap founder Hayden Adams expressed deep gratitude for the long-term funding and multifaceted support provided by the Ethereum Foundation (EF), but specifically clarified that Uniswap was not incubated by EF, and that he participated as an external grantee with a close personal connection to EF.Previously, EF Chair Aya Miyaguchi and co-founder Vitalik Buterin publicly shared their views on the future direction of the Ethereum Foundation. Miyaguchi stated that part of the reason for proposing the EF mission framework at the end of last year was the issue of deviation in technical discussions.

In response to Bankless founder David Hoffman's liquidation of ETH, Uniswap founder Hayden Adams posted on the X platform stating that "ETH is Money" is the correct narrative, just different from most people's understanding.Hayden Adams stated that in the future, all assets will be tokenized, and people will hold the assets they value most, while the most decentralized monetary system will manifest as "an infinite form of currency competing with each other." He believes that with a low-cost, high-efficiency, 24/7 asset exchange system, there is no need for a single unit of account. He also claimed that Ethereum-based Uniswap is "the best decentralized monetary system," and it is still in its early stages.

According to official news, Base MCP has officially launched. Users can connect their Base accounts to the AI interface to execute exchanges, transfers, track portfolios, and participate in the Base ecosystem through chat. The service supports Morpho, Moonwell, Aerodrome, Bankr, Avantis, Virtuals, and Uniswap from the start, covering areas such as lending, exchanges, and perpetual contracts.Users can install and use the Base account for authentication through AI clients that support MCP.

Base MCP is built on the OAuth 2.1 standard for authentication, generating wallet request links through the storage request feature, and the MCP server does not hold or access user private keys.

On-chain analyst "b-block" posted on social media on Monday that a counterfeit Uniswap website is stealing funds from multiple wallets, with assets held by the scammers valued at over $400,000. Stacy Muur, founder of the Web3 marketing agency Green Dots, shared screenshots of false sponsored results from search engines, criticizing Google for ignoring this issue for years, leading to fake links ranking above real ones, resulting in users continuously being scammed.According to Etherscan data, the two flagged addresses hold a total of about 146 ETH, valued at approximately $306,000. DeFiLlama pointed out that fake ads on Google are a common source of phishing attacks. The crypto nonprofit organization Security Alliance (SEAL) reported in April that phishing activities on Google searches significantly increased in March, with attackers deploying highly deceptive fake ads by paying for or hijacking legitimate ad accounts, using seemingly real URLs to bypass Google's automatic checks, and loading malicious payloads through hidden iframes.SEAL has blocked over 356 malicious ad links and stated that the volume of Google ads deployed by attackers has remained stable for over a year, with no slowdown in attack activities. Reports indicate that between March 13 and 30 alone, a total of $1.27 million was stolen. Additionally, earlier this month, there were malicious ad campaigns targeting Mac users that utilized Google ads and the AI chatbot Claude for shared chats. Malwarebytes also reported that Facebook is similarly a hotspot for fake ads and scams.

According to Blockaid monitoring, the cross-chain routing protocol Squid is currently under continuous attack on the SquidRouterModule on the Ethereum and Base networks. Within about two hours of the attack, 86 Gnosis Safe wallets have been emptied, with losses amounting to approximately 3 million dollars.The attacker subsequently exchanged all stolen tokens for DAI through their controlled Uniswap V3 liquidity pool and consolidated them into a single address. Currently, this consolidated wallet holds approximately 3.07 million dollars in DAI.

Uniswap's governance proposal aims to extend the protocol fee collection and burning infrastructure to BNB Chain and Polygon, and to complete the fee activation process on Celo that was not executed due to a configuration error.The proposal includes: setting the fee receiving address for the V2 protocol on BNB Chain, Polygon, and Celo to TokenJar, and designating the V3 Factory owner on the relevant chains as V3OpenFeeAdapter; additionally, Celo will transfer the feeToSetter role and V4 PoolManager ownership to CrossChainAccount.The proposal states that fees from each chain will be aggregated into the corresponding TokenJar, and then UNI will be bridged back to the Ethereum mainnet and sent to the burn address.

Cardano (ADA) ranks third with a weight of 17.96%, followed by Avalanche, Hedera, and Sui.This adjustment is primarily based on the methodology of the CoinDesk DeFi Selected Index and the CoinDesk Smart Contract Platform Selected Cap Index, aiming to ensure that the fund's holdings are consistent with liquidity, custody, and market capitalization requirements.

According to DL News, Uniswap DAO is voting on a proposal to reclaim approximately 12.5 million UNI (about $42 million) that was previously lent to representatives and the foundation. The voting will end on May 8, with about 53% in support, 46% abstaining, and very few opposing votes.Between 2022 and 2023, the DAO lent out the aforementioned governance tokens to enhance governance participation. Uniswap Labs stated that current governance activity has significantly increased, with an average voting participation of about 750,000 votes, and the related mechanism has achieved the expected results. This reclamation also aims to address the issue of incentive misalignment—some representatives hold significant voting power without having their own economic exposure. At the same time, this move is seen as a response to external doubts about the degree of decentralization in governance.In addition, the Uniswap ecosystem has recently promoted reforms including fee mechanisms, token buyback and burn, and governance structure optimization to further enhance governance transparency and decentralization.
