Uniswap sees two bullish catalysts in a row, price recovery is likely

Two developments in the Uniswap ecosystem are likely to act as bullish catalysts for UNI in the short term. The DEX successfully processed 200 million unique transactions, signaling rising adoption and utility for traders in the crypto ecosystem. Uniswap informed crypto market participants of the milestone in a recent tweet:

The second likely driver of UNI recovery is the rising trade volume on the decentralized exchange platform. Uniswap ranked first in the list of the top 10 DEXs on the Ethereum chain with a 24-hour trade volume of $391 million. The exchange is closely followed by Balancer V2 and Curve, with trade volumes of $174 million and $105 million, respectively.
