Uniswap Revitalization and Growth

Thank you to everyone who participated in the ten polls.

Here is the summary of the outcomes

  1. Linea: $250k
  2. Scroll: $250k
  3. Polygon zkEVM: $250k
  4. zkSync: $500k
  5. Blast: $500k
  6. Base: $500k
  7. Taiko: $250k
  8. Moonbeam: $250k*
  9. BSC: $1m
  10. Mantle: $250k

Some of the temperature checks were quite close. For those, I default toward the popular vote, but if a delegate feels strongly that one of the amounts should be different, please post a comment.

Pools
I have gone through the top DEXs for each chain and came up with 3-5 pools for each chain and the allocation amount of the incentives. Please take a look here and feel free to message me with comments or post on this thread. In addition to the pools, I also included the top DEXs for each chain. Generally, I was looking for three things: top pools by volume, top pools where the volume traded exceeds the liquidity available, and how the liquidity was distributed.

Next steps
I’d like to send an onchain proposal this week that approves the following Onboarding Packages.

  1. Linea: $250k (w/Oku + Merkl)
  2. Scroll: $250k (w/Merkl)
  3. Polygon zkEVM: $250k (w/Merkl - UniV3 only)
  4. zkSync: $500k (w/Merkl)
  5. Blast: $500k (w/Oku + Merkl)
  6. Base: $500k (w/Merkl)
  7. BSC: $1m (w/Merkl)
  8. Mantle: $250k (w/Oku + Merkl)

This excludes Taiko because their chain deployment is a few months away but includes Blast because the mainnet is expected in the immediate future. As for Moonbeam, the temperature check seemed indecisive. I figure we can always grant it an onboarding package at a later date.

Of the eight above chains, Oku currently supports all except for Blast, Mantle, Linea, and Polygon zkEVM. Oku has already announced Polygon zkEVM will be supported, so this proposal would only require three new additions.

Angle Merkl’s current support can be found here. Merkl will need to support five new chains and their Uniswap v3 deployments; they support Polygon zkEVM, so they only need to add UniV3; they currently fully support base, and I need to confirm before the on-chain proposal that they can support zkSync.

Please review the linked spreadsheet and either post here or message me if you have feedback.
