Uniswap Governance will vote on protocol fees for v2, v3 and v4 across 7 chains

Uniswap is advancing two key governance proposals, or activating multi-chain protocol fees and strengthening the UNI destruction mechanism

The decentralized transaction protocol Uniswap is advancing two major governance proposals aimed at activating protocol fees on multiple chains and strengthening the destruction mechanism of UNI tokens. The community will vote on the proposals before July 26.

Core proposals focus on UNI destruction and agreement fee expansion

Uniswap founder Hayden Adams said that if approved, these proposals will have a substantial impact on the UNI destruction mechanism. The measures will introduce fee charges for specific liquidity pools in Uniswap v4 for the first time and be extended to v2 and v3 pools running on Robinhood Chain.

Adams detailed the details on social media: A governance proposal aims to enable protocol fees in the liquidity pool of Uniswap v4, involving Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, BNB Chain, Polygon, Optimism and Robinhood Chain. Given that Uniswap's GovernorBravo contract has a technical limitation of up to 10 operations per proposal, the second proposal would handle additional v4 chains.

If both voting proposals are passed, protocol fee charging will be implemented in static fee pools, continuous clearing auction pools, and aggregator hook pools, providing the latest version of Uniswap with streamlined fee management across supported chains.

Technical Architecture and Plan Deployment

Uniswap v4 introduces a flexible pool fee based on a hook system, allowing fees to change block by block for more flexible management. The proposal plans to organize pools into "pool families" and use standardized rules to determine fee structures for different pool types, thereby reducing the need for separate votes for each individual pool.

At the same time, the Uniswap v2 and v3 pools still follow fixed rates for each agreement. According to the latest proposal, fees for these versions will only be activated on Robinhood Chain, which is built on the Arbitrum blockchain infrastructure.

Robinhood Chain was launched on July 1 as the main network of Ethereum Layer-2. It is secured by Arbitrum technology and directly integrated with the Robinhood trading ecosystem. In the first week after its launch, its decentralized trading volume has reached approximately US$3.1 billion, mainly driven by active trading in memein.

Brief description: Robinhood Chain is an Ethereum Layer-2 blockchain using the Arbitrum architecture designed to support fast and cost-efficient transactions and is connected to the Robinhood trading platform.

Governance, UNI Destruction and Network Expansion

Looking back on history, the Uniswap governance layer voted with a support rate of 99.9% in December last year to destroy 100 million UNI tokens from the treasury and enable protocol fees for v2 and v3 pools on the Ethereum main network. However, its agreement fee was delayed because the v4 infrastructure was not yet in place. The latest push to expand the fee system to 11 blockchains reflects Uniswap's larger strategy of increasing platform revenue and enhancing token scarcity through regular destruction events.

In the past month, Uniswap set a record for destroying nearly 186,000 UNIs in a single day. Both new proposals leverage Uniswap's accelerated governance framework implemented through unified upgrades. This process allows a proposal to move to the on-chain voting stage faster after it passes the five-day initial Snapshot vote. Discussions on the fee for the extension agreement have been under way since February this year.

If the proposal is approved, fees incurred for multiple chain operations will directly support the token destruction mechanism, thereby strengthening governance upgrades already implemented in other versions of the platform.

Since Robinhood Chain's Ethereum Layer-2 main network was launched on July 1, as of July 10, Uniswap's cumulative transaction volume on the network has exceeded US$6 billion, reflecting the high user engagement and liquidity injection brought about by this integration.
