Author: COINTURK NEWS

Uniswap Labs has surpassed $1 million in revenue within a month from the front-end fee implementation of Uniswap, a decentralized cryptocurrency exchange (DEX) and altcoin project. The company introduced a 0.15% fee for web interfaces and wallet applications in mid-October this year.

Uniswap’s Front-End Fee Implementation

Uniswap Labs, the developer company behind the largest decentralized cryptocurrency exchange Uniswap, has generated over $1 million in revenue within a month after implementing the cumulative front-end fee.

The company started charging a 0.15% fee for transactions on web interfaces and wallet applications on October 17th. This new fee structure was different from the previous 0.3% protocol fee that was distributed among liquidity providers as an incentive. The new front-end fee implementation is directed solely to Uniswap Labs, aiming to increase the company’s revenue.

Users who do not want to pay the front-end fee have the option to use alternative interfaces such as 1inch or Matcha, but it should be noted that these platforms have different fee models.

Front-End Fee Implementation Can Yield an Annual Average of $16 Million in Revenue

Data provided by The Block shows that the revenue generated from Uniswap’s front-end fee implementation has exceeded $1.1 million in the past 25 days. With a daily average revenue of $44,000, this translates to a return of over $16 million annually.

According to Dune Analytics, over 16% of Uniswap’s trading volume has been conducted through the front-end in recent days. With the overall activity in the cryptocurrency market increasing, it is expected that the increase in transactions through the front-end on Uniswap and the resulting revenue will also increase significantly.
