Delegate Statement

Uniswap Delegate Profile

Platform

We support policies that grow Uniswap’s reach, increase its usefulness, and protect tokenholder rights.

What do you want to see happen in Uniswap governance over the next year?

We have three major goals for Uniswap governance over the next twelve months. The first and most immediate is to solidify Uniswap’s position as the dominant decentralized exchange on as many chains as possible, for as many assets as possible. This includes cross-chain deployments to increase breadth, and encouraging development on top of the protocol to allow Uniswap to reasonably challenge centralized exchanges as a professional venue for trading.

The second goal is to create and deploy the infrastructure for UNI holders to safely enable a protocol fee. Whether or not governance ultimately chooses to collect fees from the protocol’s users, we want to ensure that a safe, simple solution is ready.

Our third goal is positioning Uniswap to compete directly with traditional spot exchanges by launching our Uniswap v3 pro-trader interface. Uniswap is the leading DEX with over 60% of the DEX market share, but it has less than 2% of the total spot market share. We want to bring users over from traditional exchanges by offering a better user experience.

Reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

GFX Labs is founded and staffed by builders. We provide some of the most well-known protocols in DeFi with governance expertise, and Uniswap has always been one of our main venues for governance participation.

Skills and areas of expertise:

We have a proven track record of expertise in technical implementation, consensus-seeking governance, due diligence, and technical research.

Past contributions to Uniswap:

GFX Labs and its founders have proposed 25% of the successfully executed Uniswap proposals. That is more than any other contributor, with an emphasis on enabling new fee tiers, such as the 1bp fee tier, executing the first cross-chain governance proposal, and growing Uniswap's reach through additional deployments.

What are your views on 3 past Uniswap governance proposals?

  • UNI 38: For - A post-BSL deployment process is needed and we believe 38 solves that need.
  • UNI 37: For - We love to see more contributors become involved in the DAO.
  • UNI 36: For - The Gnosis deployment was previously approved.

Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest:

GFX Labs is active in governance and development of multiple protocols. Current and recent relationships include Uniswap, MakerDAO, 0x, Optimism, Arbitrum, Wormhole, Interest Protocol, Hop, and Compound.

Top Issues

Mechanism design
Mechanism design
We're excited by the notion of growing the scope of the protocol by adding additional mechanisms.
Fee tiers
Fee tiers
Having proposed the 1bp fee tier addition, we place a high value on improving Uniswap through additional fee tiers, though each fee tier must be carefully considered.
Cross chain deployments
Cross chain deployments
Cross-chain deployments are vital to the long-term growth of the Uniswap protocol and ecosystem.
