Institutional flows boost Uniswap as governance triggers deflation focus

Uniswap has seen a significant boost in ecosystem growth following the launch of Robinhood Chain, which quickly became its second-largest deployment by 24-hour trading volume after Ethereum. Daily trading volumes reached approximately $500 million in the first week, and total value locked surpassed $100 million, driven by institutional participation. The protocol managed 58% of all EVM stablecoin trading volume last month, with governance proposals moving UNI toward a deflationary model and expanded protocol revenue features.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes that UNI’s recent surge is driven by speculative demand and protocol news, yet longer-term technicals remain unfavorable. He observes that the price staying under the 200-day moving average signals unresolved structural weakness. Despite signs of strong buyer activity, volatility and overbought readings warn of limited follow-through. Kharitonov is wary of market exuberance spilling over from Robinhood Chain but believes upside may stall without further fundamental shifts. "I remain cautious and would not chase this upswing with such stretched intraday momentum and persistent overhead resistance."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, highlights substantial ecosystem growth and strong institutional flows post-Robinhood Chain deployment. He sees Uniswap’s expanding role in EVM stablecoin trading and governance proposals as driving further opportunity. Karapetjanc believes the bullish structure remains intact, with consolidation near highs favoring further growth. "I expect continued strength, as rising protocol activity and upcoming revenue features point to upside potential for UNI."

Bullish momentum persists as overbought signals flag exhaustion risk

UNI/USD is trading above its 20-day and 50-day moving averages at $3.0412 and $2.969, respectively, but remains below the 200-day moving average at $3.7666. This setup confirms bullish short- and medium-term momentum, with longer-term pressure from sellers, while the Ichimoku Kijun at $3.0975 lends nearby trend support. Immediate focus sits on near-term levels with resistance at $3.637 and support at $3.4485. Momentum readings are moderately bullish: the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) signals a “Buy,” and the Average Directional Index (ADX) reads neutral, suggesting a developing trend. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) approaches overbought territory at 68, while both the Stochastic RSI and Commodity Channel Index (CCI) also indicate overbought conditions, highlighting potential for short-term exhaustion. Bull/Bear Power (BBP) at 0.2937 confirms buyers dominate intraday momentum, supporting the positive move, though oscillators warn of overheating. The daily session saw an upside gap of around 2.48%, with UNI/USD climbing $0.32 or 9.66% to $3.633, trading near the top of its range. Intraday volatility stands at 7.92% as the pair shows strength toward highs. Short-term momentum signals and intraday price action broadly align, but overbought warnings point to possible consolidation.

Earlier, analysts noted that Uniswap was exhibiting resilient bullish momentum and expanding adoption despite security challenges. The current setup reinforces the protocol's constructive outlook, with traders advised to monitor for a decisive breakout above $3.637 as a signal of potential short-term upside continuation.
