Uniswap (UNI)

$UNI As long as the price remains below the lower yellow trend line of the channel, the overarching structure still points to a continuation of the downtrend. A breakout downwards from the channel suggests the market may be in a developing third wave toward the bottom. In this scenario, the next key target area lies at the bottom, around $1.40 and lower, which aligns with projected wave extensions. A sustained rise back above the yellow trend line would be the first signal that downward momentum is waning. Until then, recoveries should be viewed as corrective counter‑movements rather than the start of a new impulsive upward structure. The price remains in a long‑term corrective phase. The structure would need to improve markedly before a more bullish scenario could be justified.

ThreadFi Daily | Big Money Finally Gets DeFi @BlackRock, the world’s biggest money manager, is letting rich clients trade its $BUIDL token on @Uniswap. They’re also quietly buying $UNI tokens. Only players with at least $5 million can join for now but this is huge. When traditional finance giants start using DeFi platforms, it’s not just a test. It’s validation. The door is cracking open. MAJOR TECH AND INVESTMENTS MOVES Ripple Teams Up With UAE Bank @Ripple is working more closely with Zand, a digital bank in the UAE to build stablecoins for dollars and dirhams. These tokens keep a steady value and help banks move money on chain safely. The deal is part of the UAE’s plan to grow its digital economy using trusted crypto tools. Tokenized Funds Become Trading Collateral @Binance and Franklin Templeton now let big investors use tokenized money market fund shares as collateral when they trade. These fund tokens stay in a separate vault run by @CeffuGlobal while their value shows up on the exchange. This helps pros cut risk, keep earning interest and still trade anytime. Tiny Exchange Closes Its Doors @Arkham Intelligence is shutting down its crypto trading platform because almost nobody used it. Bigger exchanges like @Binance and @Coinbase handle way more volume every single day. Arkham will keep running its main data business but the trading dream died in a crowded market. Lesson: being first doesn’t matter if nobody shows up. Cautious Bank Opens Crypto Door @DanskeBankFI will now let customers buy @Bitcoin and @Ethereum products after eight years of saying no. The bank still warns it’s risky and won’t give advice. Only clients who pass a quiz proving they understand the danger can access these products. Progress is progress, even when it’s slow. Ripple Puts Funds On XRPL @Ripple is teaming up with Aviva Investors, a big European fund manager to turn normal investment funds into tokens on the XRP Ledger. This should make trades faster and cheaper while still following strict rules. It’s Ripple’s first deal with a European asset manager and could push more real world assets on chain. AI Bots Get Crypto Wallets @Coinbase made a special wallet tool that lets AI agents hold and use crypto like USDC while keeping the real keys safe. The wallet runs on @Base and lets agents swap tokens or pay for services without ever seeing the private key. Extra checks help stop scams where bad prompts try to drain the wallet. In The Other Web3 News Crypto thieves can move stolen coins in just two seconds after a hack, long before most people even know what happened. They now take more days to fully hide the money, chopping it into many small parts and sending it through bridges and mixers. Most losses hit Ethereum, and only a tiny bit ever gets frozen. China’s new crypto rules are clear: no digital coins tied to its money. You also can’t turn real world stuff into tokens inside China. That kind of deal can only happen overseas and must follow very strict rules. Only big, clean projects with strong assets can participate. China wants control not chaos. @MoonPay launched a tool that lets people send many types of crypto from other wallets and have it auto swapped into the right token and network. It’s live inside the TON Wallet in @Telegram, so over 100 million users can now fund TON apps without first buying TON. MoonPay handles all swaps in the background. MARKET PULSE Fear and Greed Index : 5 (Extreme Fear) Global market Cap: $2.371 T 24hr Volume: $129.22 B SUMMARY Big institutions moved deeper into onchain assets, opening tokenized funds, testing DeFi access and partnering with banks and managers. Rules tightened in one major Asian market. Hacks are getting faster. An AI ready wallet and easier chat based deposits improved user access while one small trading platform shut down on low demand.

UNI token of Uniswap surged more than 20% but ultimately fell back . The main reason stems from a name many are familiar with… BlackRock . Indeed, BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager overseeing roughly $14 trillion, announced it has taken a position in Uniswap’s UNI token, though the amount was not disclosed . As soon as the news broke, UNI traded around $4.36, still far from its 2021 peak of nearly $45, but such a market‑contrarian rally drew renewed attention . This is not just “BlackRock buying the token” but about Uniswap enabling traders to access BlackRock’s funds on the blockchain . BlackRock has a fund called BUIDL that invests in U.S. Treasury bonds, cash, and repo agreements What differs is that they “tokenize” it on the blockchain . In other words, instead of holding the fund in paper or traditional systems, it is converted into a digital format on the blockchain, transferable and tradable like a crypto token. Currently, Uniswap is working with a company called Securitize to allow BUIDL fund shares to trade through Uniswap . The BUIDL fund has already attracted over $1 billion in inflows within a year . Points worth considering: - BlackRock holding UNI—does this signal a long‑term belief in the protocol’s role? - If bond funds can truly be traded on a DEX, this bridges traditional finance with the new world - The tokenization market is growing, and DeFi may be one of the major trends of this cycle . Obviously, a single‑day 20% rise does not guarantee future performance, as the price has already slipped back near its original level, reflecting a crypto market condition that even BlackRock cannot rescue 5555
