WHAT IS UNISWAP?
Uniswap is a decentralized exchange well positioned for community-led growth, development and self-sustainability. Its native token UNI serves the purpose of enabling shared community ownership and a vibrant, diverse and dedicated governance system, which will actively guide the protocol towards the future.
UNI officially enshrines Uniswap as publicly-owned and self-sustainable infrastructure while continuing to carefully protect its indestructible and autonomous qualities.
Characteristics of UNISWAP
Uniswap was launched with the idea of solving decentralized exchanges' liquidity problem.
- It is an Ethereum-based decentralized exchange that allows anyone to swap ERC20 tokens.
- UNI allows the exchange to swap tokens without relying on buyers and sellers creating that liquidity.
- Uniswap uses a pricing mechanism called the “Constant Product Market Maker Model.”
- Any token can be added to Uniswap by funding it with an equivalent value of ETH and the ERC20 token being traded.
Differences between Uniswap and Bitcoin

- 1 billion UNI have been minted at genesis and will become accessible over the course of 4 years.
- A perpetual inflation rate of 2% per year will start after 4 years, ensuring continued participation and contribution to Uniswap at the expense of passive UNI holders.
