Uniswap’s native token, UNI, posted a sharp gain on Wednesday after the 
world’s largest asset manager, BlackRock, announced plans to bring its 
Treasury‑backed digital fund, BUIDL, onto the decentralized finance (DeFi) 
platform. The move, which also includes BlackRock’s intention to purchase UNI 
tokens, fueled a strong rally in the token during the trading session. BUIDL 
Launch On Uniswap The development was detailed in a joint press release from 
Uniswap Labs and Securitize. The two companies revealed a strategic 
integration that will allow shares of the BlackRock USD Institutional Digital 
Liquidity Fund (BUIDL) to be traded using UniswapX technology. Through the 
integration of UniswapX with Securitize’s infrastructure, investors will be 
able to access market quotes and swap BUIDL directly with whitelisted 
participants around the clock, every day of the year. Related Reading: Ripple

companies described the move as an important step in bridging traditional 
financial products with decentralized trading systems. Robert Mitchnick,

decentralized finance. He said integrating BUIDL into Uniswap represents 
significant progress in enabling interoperability between tokenized US dollar 
yield funds and stablecoins. UNI Outperforms Sluggish Crypto Market Following 
the announcement, Uniswap climbed to a weekly high of $4.50 earlier on

token pulling back to around $3.68 at the time of writing. Related Reading:

Even with the retracement, UNI stood out as one of the few cryptocurrencies 
recording gains during the day, as Bitcoin (BTC) and the broader digital asset 
market continued to face bearish pressure. From a technical perspective, 
Uniswap investors will need to watch the $3.14 level, which has served as 
support since Friday of last week. On the upside, the $4.70 level may act as 
short‑term resistance if renewed buying interest pushes prices higher in the 
coming days. Featured image from OpenArt, chart from TradingView.com
