Uniswap founder responds to v4 agreement fee controversy
Uniswap founder Hayden Adams recently refuted criticism caused by the project's newly activated v4 agreement fee, arguing that claims that agreement fees will reduce liquidity providers 'profits are based on false assumptions.
In a Platform X post posted on Tuesday, Adams said recent criticism surrounding the activation of the agreement fee was nothing more than "FUD (panic, uncertainty and suspicion) and misunderstanding." He also dismissed suggestions that the agreement would take away 25% of liquidity providers 'profits. Taking a 30-basis point liquidity pool as an example, he pointed out that a 5-basis point agreement fee only accounts for about 14% of total transaction fees and will not reduce the liquidity provider's income.
Adams's comments came after Uniswap governance voted to approve opening protocol fees for some v4 pools on multiple blockchains. He denied claims that liquidity providers would receive lower fees, emphasizing that agreement fees were additional and not deducted from existing liquidity provider fees.
Uniswap is currently the world's largest decentralized exchange. Based on the total locked position value, the assets locked in the agreement are approximately US$3.06 billion.
