<\/p>\n

The indefinite delay is due to a \u201cstakeholder raising an issue,\u201d said the Foundation.<\/p>\n

\n

On a day filled with uncertainty, the Uniswap Foundation announced<\/a> it was delaying a key vote<\/a> to upgrade the protocol\u2019s governance structure.<\/p>\n

Last week, the Foundation anticipated<\/a> that a vote would take place today to upgrade the Uniswap protocol so that its fee mechanism can reward UNI token holders who have staked and delegated their tokens.<\/p>\n

That vote has been postponed \u2013 and one of the oldest sagas in DeFi drags on.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the last week, a stakeholder raised a new issue relating to this work that requires additional diligence on our end to fully vet,\u201d said the Uniswap Foundation on social media. \u201cDue to the immutable nature and sensitivity of our proposed upgrade, we have made the difficult decision to postpone posting this vote.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Uniswap<\/a> Foundation did not immediately reply to a request for comment from The Defiant.<\/p>\n

UNI was hit hard by the news, dropping 7% to $10.21 today. However, the token is still up 44% in the past 30 days.<\/p>\n

Uniswap\u2019s fee switch has been a point of contention<\/a> over the years.<\/p>\n

People have asked this question since Uniswap V2, the second iteration of the protocol, was launched in May 2020. V2 included code to capture .05% of trading volume, but that function, also known as the \u201cfee switch,\u201d has never been activated.<\/p>\n

Members of the community once again began to push for the activation of the fee switch in 2023 and into 2024, with an initial vote slated for May 31.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, UNI holders seeking to share in the success of the top decentralized exchange in crypto will have to continue to wait. No timeframe has been disclosed for when the vote will take place.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
