Mary-Catherine Lader has resigned from her roles as President and Chief Operating Officer of Uniswap Labs, concluding a four-year tenure where she significantly contributed to the company’s expansion and regulatory strategy.
Under Lader’s leadership, Uniswap Labs secured $165 million in a Series B funding round in October 2022, achieving a $1.66 billion valuation. The platform also navigated critical regulatory challenges including the closure of a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission investigation without enforcement action earlier this year.
Operational milestones during her tenure include processing over $73 billion in trading volume within a recent 30-day period, cementing Uniswap’s position as a dominant decentralized exchange. Lader will transition to an advisory role to support the platform amid ongoing evolution in the decentralized finance sector.
