Explanation:
We voted YES on the BOB onboarding package because it supports a strategic initiative that leverages a promising Hybrid Layer 2 focused on Bitcoin DeFi. BOB has demonstrated significant organic traction—with over $247M TVL across its Dapps and $42–43M in Uniswap V3 liquidity—and positions itself as the primary venue for BTC-native volume. The proposal’s design to boost liquidity incentives (including a commitment of $500K matched at 75% by the DAO) helps reinforce Uniswap’s position as the canonical DEX on BOB. This early-stage boost is seen as critical for long-term network growth and for unlocking new BTC use cases on DeFi, thereby expanding Uniswap’s ecosystem influence.
Establish Uniswap v4 Licensing Process

Explanation:
Our YES vote on the v4 licensing process proposal reflects our confidence in establishing a strong operational framework for the next phase of Uniswap’s expansion. By creating dedicated ENS subdomains (v4-core-license-grants.uniswap.eth and v4deployments.uniswap.eth) and setting up a process for granting blanket license exemptions, the proposal not only preserves Uniswap’s temporary competitive moat under the Business Source License but also ensures secure and transparent tracking of official v4 deployments. This structured approach enables the DAO—and its partners like the Uniswap Foundation—to manage and accelerate v4 adoption across multiple chains, thereby setting the stage for advanced hook integrations and overall protocol growth before the license eventually transitions to MIT.
