Uniswap is the largest decentralized exchange (DEX) on Ethereum, with more than $1.6 billion in daily trading volume. As the Ethereum ecosystem expands and Ether ETFs begin trading, all eyes are on Uniswap’s $UNI token and where it could go.

In our Uniswap price prediction, we’ll explore the $UNI token’s price potential in 2025, 2026, and 2030. Find out how high $UNI could go and whether Uniswap’s governance token is a buy today.

Uniswap Coin Price Prediction 2025-2030


Here are the most important things investors should know from our Uniswap price prediction:

  • Our real-time $UNI to USD price chart gives the current Uniswap price as $9.65 on February 19, 2025.
  • Uniswap’s market cap is $5.79B, which puts it among the top 25 cryptocurrencies by market cap.
  • We predict $UNI will rise to a price of $13.11 by the end of 2025 as the crypto market heats up, then jump to $9.65 by the end of 2025.
  • We think Uniswap’s growth will slow after the crypto bull market cools off in 2026. We predict a price of $39.55 for $UNI by the end of 2030.

Year Average Price Potential Low Potential High

Uniswap Price Prediction 2025


Uniswap has a dominant position as the leading DEX on Ethereum, which remains the leading smart contract blockchain by a wide margin despite challenges from alternative Layer-1 blockchains like Solana, TON Network, and Avalanche.

We firmly believe that despite its limitations, Ethereum will remain the most important blockchain network for Web3 development. Its growth rate is also likely to increase thanks to advancements in Ethereum Layer-2 networks, which operate on Ethereum while increasing transaction speeds and reducing fees. That’s good news for Uniswap, which can expect increased trading volume as more users flock to Ethereum and its Layer-2 chains.

Uniswap Token Swap

In addition, the launch of Ether ETFs in the US could provide another tailwind for Uniswap. While Ether ETF holders aren’t on the chain and thus are unlikely to use Uniswap, the growth of these ETFs increases the value of the Ethereum ecosystem as well as its market capitalization and further cements its dominance in the crypto ecosystem. The more locked-in Ethereum gets, the more trading Uniswap can expect in the future.

The crypto bull market that kicked off earlier this year is already contributing to increased trading volume on Uniswap, and especially on the Uniswap v3 protocol. Across Uniswap’s 3 versions, monthly trading volume was over $50 billion in July, compared to less than $25 billion this time last year.

Uniswap Trading Volume

We expect this market sentiment and growth to continue through the end of the year, sending the price of $UNI sharply higher. While the token is priced at $9.65 on February 19, 2025, we think it could jump to $13.11 by the end of the year—an 80% gain.

Here’s how we expect the average price of $UNI to grow over the remainder of the year:

MonthPotential LowAverage PricePotential High
March 2025$9.76$9.88$9.99
April 2025$9.88$10.10$10.33
May 2025$9.99$10.34$10.68
June 2025$10.11$10.56$11.02

Uniswap Price Prediction 2025


We think the $UNI token could make another significant move higher in 2025 as the crypto bull market heats up even more, encouraging further development on Ethereum and trading on Uniswap. A new all-time high in Bitcoin and easing regulatory pressure on the crypto market in the US will fan the flames of the bull market, enabling more institutional investors and companies to jump into Ethereum.

That said, we don’t think the price of Uniswap will shoot so high as to exceed its all-time high of $44.93, set in 2021 at the height of the meme coin trading frenzy. That’s because while the price of $UNI correlates moderately with Uniswap trading volume and fees, $UNI token holders do not receive revenue from trading on the DEX. It’s purely a governance token.

$UNI and Uniswap Governance

Anyone who holds $UNI has a say in the future of the Uniswap DEX protocol, including the ability to vote on proposed changes. $UNI governance has played a central role in the upgrade from Uniswap v2 to v3 and in the upcoming upgrade to v4.

As a result, we think $UNI can make an upward move, but there’s a limit to how much investors are willing to pay to have a stake in the future of the DEX without the prospect of immediate revenue. We predict a price of $9.65 by the end of the year.

Uniswap Price Forecast Long-Term Outlook – 2026-2030 Predictions


Our long-term price prediction for Uniswap from 2026-2030 foresees a slow decline in the $UNI token’s price. This isn’t because of a change in the importance of Ethereum or Uniswap in the Web3 ecosystem—rather, we think Ethereum will remain the most important blockchain and Uniswap the most important DEX.

Uniswap Price Prediction Statistics

Instead, our prediction is based on an expected cooling of the crypto market overall combined with inflationary pressure on the Uniswap token supply.

The crypto bull market is expected to peak in 2025 and wind down in 2026. Although another crypto winter appears unlikely, the cooling could have a noticeable impact on Uniswap trading volume and make the $UNI token less desirable for potential investors.

$UNI Token Inflation

Uniswap is designed to have an inflation rate of 2% or less once the existing supply of $UNI has been distributed to liquidity providers. $UNI token holders can use their governance power to modify the inflation rate, but a 2% rate seems likely to hold for the foreseeable future.

At the same time, a large supply of $UNI tokens could enter the market in these years. Currently, only 60% of the 1 billion token total supply of $UNI is available for trading. Uniswap’s release plan—followed by a steady 2% per year inflation rate—means that the supply will expand significantly in 2026-2030, diluting the value of existing $UNI.

As a result of these two trends, our Uniswap price prediction for 2030 is $39.55, with a potential high of $70.60 and a potential low of $20.53.

Here’s how Uniswap’s price could evolve from 2026-2030:

  • 2026: $13.63
  • 2027: $18.67
  • 2028: $24.78
  • 2029: $31.83
  • 2030: $39.55

Potential Highs & Lows of Uniswap


While we have high confidence that Uniswap will remain the dominant DEX on Ethereum, there is uncertainty over how valuable the $UNI governance token will be as the DEX grows. With this uncertainty in mind, we’ve crafted high and low predictions for $UNI for 2026-2030:

Year Average Price Potential Low Potential High
2026 $13.63 $11.64 $15.62
2027 $18.67 $13.79 $24.29
2028 $24.78 $16.04 $36.22
2029 $31.83 $18.32 $51.71
2030 $39.55 $20.53 $70.60

Our Uniswap Price Prediction Methodology


Our Uniswap price prediction is based mainly on fundamental analysis of the Uniswap DEX and the Ethereum blockchain, on which the DEX is built and has a high dependency. We considered the likelihood that Uniswap will continue to fend off competitors like SushiSwap and Pancakeswap, as well as trends in Ethereum usage by traders and developers.

We did incorporate technical analysis into our short-term price prediction for $UNI in 2025. However, technical analysis provides relatively little information about the DEX’s long-term prospects.

Uniswap Price History


Uniswap launched the $UNI governance token on September 17, 2020, primarily to prevent users from leaving the exchange for rival DEX SushiSwap. Anyone who had ever used Uniswap up to that point received 400 $UNI tokens, an airdrop worth more than $1,000 per wallet.

$UNI began trading at a price of $3.50 but quickly rocketed to an all-time high of $44.93 in early May 2021 as trading around meme coins like $SHIB reached a fever pitch. The value of $UNI soon fell back to earth, falling below $16 by late June 2021.

After a brief resurgence in Uniswap’s trading price, the crypto winter set in, and $UNI fell to a low of $3.60 in June 2022. Uniswap then traded between $4 and $7 for the remainder of 2022 and 2023.

In February 2024, a surge in meme coin trading on Ethereum once again lifted $UNI’s price, this time to a short-lived high of $14.91. Uniswap now trades at $9.65 and has a market cap of $5.79B.

Where Does Uniswap Trade?

Uniswap’s $UNI token is available to trade on all major centralized exchanges and Ethereum DEXs. It can be found on Coinbase, Binance, Kraken, OKX, ByBit, and Gate.io, among many others.

What Do Other Analysts Predict for Uniswap?


As one of the largest cryptocurrencies, $UNI is the focus of speculation about future prices. We’ll compare our own predictions to several Uniswap price predictions.

CoinCodex predicts that $UNI could reach a high of $34.42 by the end of 2025, vastly exceeding our forecast. It also forecasts a high degree of volatility, including a high of $19.34 in 2026 and a high of $46.24 in 2029.

Changelly predicts a price of $12.45 for $UNI at the end of 2025, indicating a more bearish outlook than our prediction. However, Changelly also forecasts a more bullish trajectory for Uniswap through the end of the decade, with $UNI reaching a price of $79.79 in 2030.

Changelly

AMB Crypto predicts that Uniswap will lose value this year and next, falling to $5.06 by the end of 2025. It also predicts a slight recovery to $7.43, just above today’s current price, by 2030.

What is Uniswap?


Uniswap is the largest decentralized crypto exchange on Ethereum. It’s a hub for trading all ERC-20 tokens, including tokens built on Ethereum Layer-2 networks like Base, Optimism, Arbitrum, and Polygon. There are currently more than 2,300 trading pairs available to trade on Uniswap v3, the latest version of the Uniswap DEX.

The $UNI token is Uniswap’s governance token, giving token holders a say in future upgrades to the DEX’s smart contract. Anyone who contributes liquidity to the Uniswap decentralized exchange can earn $UNI as a reward, which incentivizes users to contribute to the exchange’s liquidity pools.

Is Uniswap a Buy?


According to our Uniswap price forecast, $UNI has the potential to jump 80% by the end of 2025, with additional gains possible in 2025. We think Uniswap will continue to dominate trading on Ethereum and its Layer-2 networks, which in turn will continue to dominate the overall crypto landscape. This increases the value of Uniswap itself and, with it, the value of the $UNI token.

Our long-term forecast indicates that the price momentum of $UNI could stagnate as the crypto market cools and inflationary pressure kicks in after 2025. So, investors interested in Uniswap may consider a medium-term investment horizon rather than approach $UNI as one of the best long-term cryptos.

Conclusion


Our $UNI price forecast indicates that Uniswap could jump to a price of $9.65 by the end of 2025, then consolidate from 2026-2030. It has the potential to be an attractive medium-term investment, but our analysis indicates that the $UNI governance token isn’t likely to mint new crypto millionaires.
