what's uniswap?

Uniswap is a leading decentralized exchange (DEX) protocol in the DeFi ecosystem that has processed over $2.5 trillion in all-time volume on Ethereum mainnet. The protocol operates across multiple versions including V3 and V4, with V4 being highlighted as a significant advancement. Uniswap features concentrated liquidity pools for capital efficiency and supports cross-chain functionality through its own blockchain called Unichain. The platform has a native token ($UNI) and is supported by the Uniswap Foundation, which focuses on advancing ecosystem growth and decentralization. Recent activities include participation in Korea Blockchain Week with community events, continued integration across multiple blockchain networks including Plasma and various Layer 2 solutions, and ongoing development of new features. The protocol maintains strong composability with other major DeFi protocols like Aave and Curve, and continues to be referenced as a benchmark for decentralized trading infrastructure.
