Uniswap Foundation Security Fund (UFSF) - March 2026 Cohort Applications Now Open

The Uniswap Foundation Security Fund (UFSF) is now accepting applications for the March 2026 cohort.

As the Uniswap ecosystem expands - particularly with teams building on Uniswap v4 hooks and integrating the Uniswap Trading APIs, the complexity of smart contract architecture continues to increase. Historically, smart contract exploits remain one of the most significant risk vectors in DeFi. A single overlooked edge case can materially impact user funds, protocol credibility, and long-term ecosystem trust.

The UFSF is designed to reduce security as a capital bottleneck for high-potential teams building within the Uniswap ecosystem.

Selected projects will receive:

  • A pre-audit security scan and tooling suite to identify vulnerabilities early

  • Up to 100% subsidy on a professional smart contract audit

  • End-to-end security guidance throughout the audit process, supported by Areta in collaboration with the Uniswap Foundation

Key Dates

  • Application Deadline: March 7, 2026 at 23:59 UTC
