Welcome to The Protocol, CoinDesk’s weekly wrap of the most important stories in cryptocurrency tech development. I’m Margaux Nijkerk, a reporter at CoinDesk. In this issue: Uniswap Proposes Sweeping ‘UNIfication’ With UNI Burn and Protocol Fee Overhaul Monad Unveils Tokenomics Ahead of Nov. 24 MON Token Airdrop Bitcoin DeFi Gets Another Institutional Boost Through Anchorage Digital Custody Injective Launches Native EVM, Promising Faster and Cheaper DeFi Network News SWEEPING UNISWAP PROPOSAL OVERHAUL: Uniswap Labs and Uniswap Foundation, two of the main firms that help steer the Uniswap protocol, are joining forces to propose a sweeping governance proposal that would completely change the way the ecosystem works. The proposal, called “UNIfication,” aims to align incentives across the Uniswap ecosystem and position the protocol as the default exchange for tokenized assets. It would do this by activating protocol fees, burning millions of UNI tokens and consolidating the project’s key teams under a single growth strategy, according to a blog post dated Nov. 11 and briefly published on Nov. 10. Under the proposal, which DAO members will vote on, the protocol would redirect a portion of trading fees to a UNI burn mechanism and fees from Uniswap’s layer-2 network, Unichain, would also flow into the burn. Uniswap Labs also proposed a retroactive burn of 100 million UNI from the treasury, which the team claims would equal the amount that might have been burned if protocol fees had been active since launch. The changes related to Uniswap’s tokenomics are not the only restructuring happening to the ecosystem. Uniswap Labs, which is the main developer firm that supports the Uniswap protocol, will absorb the Uniswap Foundation’s ecosystem teams. If passed, UNIfication would mark the most significant evolution of Uniswap’s governance and economics since its token launch in 2020. — Margaux Nijkerk Read more. MONAD TOKENOMICS…
