The Uniswap Foundation, which supports one of the world’s leading decentralized protocols, has released its Q1 2025 financial report — and the numbers are impressive. The foundation generated $140.3 million in revenue during the quarter and committed $12.4 million to new grant initiatives.
💰 Strong Financial Standing
As of March 31, 2025, the foundation held $53.4 million in cash and stablecoins, along with $95 million in token reserves — mainly consisting of 15.8 million UNI and 257 ETH. It also holds an additional 5 million UNI as collateral for a $29 million loan, providing fast USD liquidity without needing to sell its token holdings.
📈 Grants and Growth Strategy
Of the newly committed $12.4 million in grants, most are dedicated to multi-year projects. A total of $9.9 million has been earmarked for programs running through 2026–2029. The foundation’s grant strategy rests on four key pillars:
🔹 Supporting developers and infrastructure to build top-tier DeFi protocols
🔹 Boosting capital efficiency on EVM chains through liquidity incentive programs
🔹 Creating sustainable revenue streams and improving governance tooling
🔹 Empowering long-term protocol-aligned contributors to strengthen the ecosystem
The grants are structured so that partners can receive up to 100% of the allocated funds after meeting growth milestones — ensuring both accountability and flexibility.
🔮 Operational Outlook Through 2027
Based on its current financial position, the foundation is funded to operate through January 2027. A total of $33.3 million is set aside for operating expenses and token-based employee compensation. An additional $115.1 million has been allocated for grant expenditures, of which $99.8 million is planned for 2025 and 2026.
