What are Uniswap and UNI?
Uniswap is a decentralised exchange protocol built on Ethereum. Rather than using an order book, it relies on an automated market maker (AMM), smart contracts that let users swap tokens, provide liquidity or create markets directly on a blockchain.
UNI is the governance token of the Uniswap Protocol. UNI holders can vote on proposals about how the protocol operates.
