Uniswap’s native token UNI has broken key technical resistance levels between $6.62 and $7.55 amid growing market optimism. This upward movement follows the platform’s impressive trading volume of $88.8 billion in May, marking its highest monthly performance since January and signaling robust user activity on the decentralized exchange.
Regulatory developments have further bolstered sentiment, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission proposing a draft ‘innovation exemption’ for decentralized finance projects. This regulatory clarity is reducing market uncertainty and positioning Uniswap favorably for enhanced institutional participation and liquidity growth within the DeFi ecosystem.
Technical indicators reveal bullish support through the 50-day moving average, though monitoring for potential breaches remains crucial. Mixed volume signals emerge from market metrics: On-Balance Volume indicates sustained buying pressure, while Chaikin Money Flow data shows modest capital outflows since early May.
The proposed regulatory framework is anticipated to strengthen Uniswap’s DeFi leadership by attracting new institutional capital and improving market depth. This convergence of technical strength and reduced regulatory friction continues to drive positive momentum for UNI.
