Uniswap Labs' decision to launch Unichain, its Layer-2 (L2) network, without consulting the Uniswap DAO has led to controversy in the DeFi community. Critics are concerned about transparency and centralization. The launch has raised governance concerns within the Uniswap ecosystem, with community members expressing frustration over the lack of input from UNI token holders. There is also discontent among UNI investors as Uniswap has not shared its earnings, unlike competitors like Aave and Maker. Concerns about funding have led to speculation that Uniswap may sell UNI tokens, which could dilute token value and dissatisfy holders. The risk of liquidity fragmentation is another issue, as incentives may attract liquidity providers from other networks, potentially weakening Uniswap's market share. Despite skepticism, the Uniswap Foundation is committed to expanding Unichain's adoption. Since its launch, the Uniswap token price has been declining.
