This proposal requests $250k to integrate Uniswap V4 on Ethereum into the Oku interface within two months and asks for a $90k annual budget to operate and maintain Unichain support. It also seeks a blanket Additional Use Grant so GFX Labs can deploy licensed V4 instances across new EVM chains without separate DAO votes, accelerating Uniswap’s growth beyond the 30+ chains already reached after its earlier $1.6M grant.
Vote: For
Rationale:
We supported this direction during the Snapshot vote, and our stance remains unchanged because ongoing Oku maintenance will keep the ecosystem’s primary user gateway robust while accelerating V4 adoption. The request is proportionate to the operational burden of keeping cross-chain infrastructure up to date and aligns with the DAO’s mandate to ensure key interfaces remain accessible and community-owned.
This election selects two candidates for Season 4 of the Uniswap Accountability Committee, which plays a critical role in maintaining accountability and evaluating governance processes within the DAO.
Vote:
Doo Wan Nam: 25%
Cole Schendl: 25%
Sov: 25%
Takeshi Ohishi: 25%
Rationale:
We chose candidates based on their demonstrated commitment to transparency, governance expertise, and consistent advocacy within the Uniswap community. Given that Takeshi from our organization participated as a candidate, we strictly adhered to the election’s voting guidelines, ensuring balanced representation and fair distribution among qualified nominees. This approach reinforces accountability standards, ensuring effective oversight within the committee.
The proposal is the second on-chain vote requesting the Uniswap DAO to allocate $250K for integrating Uniswap V4 into Oku on Ethereum, along with a recurring $90K per year to maintain Unichain support, aiming to drive liquidity migration, improve developer tools, and maintain the protocol’s leadership.
Vote: For
Rationale:
Our support for this proposal reflects a consistent stance demonstrated through the previous Snapshot vote and the prior on-chain vote. Utilizing external providers for diverse frontend interfaces and multi-chain expansions has repeatedly proven efficient, significantly reducing the workload for Labs and core development teams. We view this practice as highly beneficial, effectively optimizing resource allocation, we believe that GFX Labs is the right team to take the role after all the contributions in the past.
This proposal establishes a 12-month Technical Advisory Board to give Uniswap DAO consistent code-level guidance, backed by 2.5 million UNI of delegated voting power. It budgets 39,400 UNI to pay six technical advisors and one professional delegate.
Vote: Against
Rationale:
This proposal creates a costly advisory layer even though only two of the twenty-nine on-chain items since January 2024 were technically complex. Existing bodies—the UAC for deployments and the Foundation for partnerships—already cover the rare code changes, so a 39 k UNI budget and a 2.5 M UNI delegation add bureaucracy without closing a real gap. Pre-selecting six members also removes the community’s ability to choose its own experts and risks inactive participants drawing equal pay. The DAO can obtain ad-hoc audits far more cheaply whenever a genuine upgrade appears.
This proposal introduces a $4M Uniswap DAO incentive program, split between a $1M fixed budget and up to $3M in unlocks tied to TVL growth milestones for USDS and sUSDS on Unichain. The plan aims to rapidly expand stablecoin liquidity via co-incentives and monthly DAO oversight, with at least $2.4M reserved for co-incentives only if Unichain TVL surpasses $100M and retention targets are met.
Vote: For
Rationale:
This proposal represents a efficient use of DAO funds, since the majority of the $4M budget is strictly performance-based and directly tied to the growth of USDS and sUSDS on Unichain. The expansion of USDS is an important driver for Unichain’s ecosystem, and rewarding real, on-chain results with matched incentives makes sense both strategically and operationally. Looking forward, we believe that decisions around similar incentive programs should be more closely coordinated with the Uniswap Foundation to maximize alignment and impact.
This proposal is to allocate $300K in incentives from the Tezos Foundation and request a $150K co-incentive from the Uniswap DAO, aiming to bootstrap liquidity for key Uniswap v3 pools on Etherlink, an EVM-compatible Layer 2 built on Tezos Smart Rollup technology.
Vote: Do Not Approve
Rationale:
This proposal outlines an exciting path for Etherlink and Uniswap.
However, it does not yet demonstrate that the requested $150k in UNI incentives will lead to durable liquidity and volume after rewards conclude. Similar campaigns on other young networks faced difficulties retaining their TVL three months post-incentive, and we do not have any other data that would indicate potential stronger retention at this point.
Also, because the distribution is preset rather than KPI-based, the DAO would have little flexibility to adjust or pause the program if the results prove underwhelming.
