The regulatory iron curtain collapses! UNI surges 70%, igniting the rebirth of DeFi
After a long silence, UNI has recently awakened like a sleeping lion, with its price violently rising 70% from the low on April 7, breaking the six-month decline! Behind this comeback, three engines are roaring:
The U.S. SEC ended its investigation into Uniswap at the beginning of the year, declaring its technological legitimacy. The Trump administration further pushed for the implementation of the crypto market structure bill, clearly defining 'non-securitized tokens'—the breaking of regulatory shackles clears the greatest uncertainty for UNI.
With ETH surging 48% in a month, UNI, as the leader of DEX, captures overflow funds.
More critically, its Layer 2 solution Unichain activates staking scenarios, where validation nodes must stake UNI to earn rewards, injecting real utility into governance tokens for the first time.
UNI's weekly chart shows seven consecutive bullish candles, breaking the strong resistance at $7.5, forming a classic bullish structure.
The derivatives market is also showing synchronized movements: contract open interest soars to a historic peak of $514 million, with a large holder long-to-short ratio reaching 3.87, indicating that whales are betting on the ecological value reassessment.
However, the frenzy hides concerns. Despite the imminent breakthrough of $8, there are signals of volume divergence and capital outflow flashing;
A more profound challenge lies in the token economic model—if the 'fee switch' proposal fails to materialize in the second half of the year, UNI will still be unable to directly capture protocol revenue, and the prosperity of the ecosystem and token value will continue to diverge.
The surge of UNI is essentially a conspiracy between regulatory expectations and technological breakthroughs. When staking economics creates a value anchor for governance tokens, regulatory loosening tears open survival space for decentralized finance, UNI's wild rise is not just a price rebound, but a manifesto for the reassessment of DeFi value!
