Uniswap Founder Proposes Activation of Long-Awaited UNI Fee-Switch

Hayden Adams, the founder of Uniswap, yesterday announced his proposal to activate the long-awaited UNI fee-switch on the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector’s leading exchange. Widely expected to pass this time, the move would mark a significant milestone for DeFi — but not everyone is convinced.

### The Proposal

The proposal would see a portion of fees, which currently go to liquidity providers (LPs), redirected to the buy-and-burn of UNI tokens. For most pools, this would amount to one-sixth of the total fees, with some of the lower tiers contributing up to 25%.

As part of the initiative, 100 million UNI tokens will be burned to represent the amount that “would have been burned if fees were on from the beginning.” Additionally, sequencer fees from Unichain will also be directed towards the UNI burn. Other features under consideration include earning fees on external pools and capturing Miner Extractable Value (MEV) on the protocol.

Notably, the wildly unpopular front-end fees — which have generated almost $180 million for Uniswap Labs to date — will be abolished under this proposal.

### Overcoming Past Challenges

Despite multiple fruitless attempts in the past, the UNI fee-switch has yet to be implemented. Legal concerns have often been cited as reasons for delay. Adams refers to this as “a hostile regulatory environment that cost thousands of hours and tens of millions in legal fees.”

However, the Trump Administration’s more permissive regulatory landscape may have helped ease earlier worries. Coming this time directly from founder Hayden Adams — who speaks as if the proposal is a done deal — it seems likely that the changes will be enacted following 22 days of governance proceedings.

### A New Era for DeFi

Adams states that the “proposal comes as DeFi reaches an inflection point.” Alongside the shift in regulatory approach, he praises decentralized platforms’ “performance and scale,” the mainstream adoption of tokens, and increasing institutional interest as key tailwinds pushing the sector forward.

Uniswap remains DeFi’s dominant decentralized exchange, with approximately $5 billion of total value locked (TVL) and over $100 billion in trading volume in the past 30 days. During that period, it generated $109 million in fees — which, at a minimum, would translate to around $18 million worth of UNI tokens burned, approximately 0.3% of its $5.7 billion market cap.

Estimates using annualized revenue put the figure closer to $38 million monthly revenue, placing the scale of this initiative alongside similar buyback and burn programs like those for PUMP and HYPE tokens.

The idea has garnered popularity within the DeFi community, with $30 billion liquid staking giant Lido also considering similar buybacks. This “anti-cyclical” mechanism would increase buybacks during bull markets and tighten spending during tougher times.

### Criticism and Concerns

Competitors warn that the reduction in swap fees going to liquidity providers may lead to an exodus of liquidity, potentially worsening trade execution and opening up opportunities for rival exchanges.

More broadly, supporters feel the move signals a new era of confidence for DeFi. Bankless’ Ryan Sean Adams summarized the moment as Uniswap “[keeping] a promise” and “inject[ing] a little belief back into our jaded souls.”

### “A Sad Day for DAOs”?

Adams’ proposal has not escaped criticism. While many celebrate a long-awaited milestone, others have expressed concerns about what the move means for decentralized governance as a whole.

Worries over the influence of large UNI stakeholders such as a16z and Binance have fueled accusations of “decentralization theater.” Critics are frustrated by what they see as a further transfer of power to Uniswap Labs, whose actions are not governed by token holders.

Under the proposal, foundation teams would transition to a legal entity structure under Labs — a shift described by some as an admission that “DAOs are inefficient at governing and allocating resources.”

In response, Adams states there is an “explicit commitment from Labs ensuring Labs does not pursue strategies that conflict with token holder interests.” He also insists that Uniswap’s “vision has always been to minimize the need [for Labs’ intervention] by relying on automation and protocol decentralization.”

Others speculate that Uniswap never intended to have a token in the first place, only launching UNI in response to 2020 competitor SushiSwap. The fee-switch proposal “basically reverts this; buyback and burn is the mostly simple, boring way to do so.”

The activation of the UNI fee-switch could represent a pivotal moment for Uniswap and the broader DeFi ecosystem, balancing innovation with governance challenges as the sector matures.

Where to search the monastery cellar during the Anamnesis quest – Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

During the **Anamnesis** quest in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, you will learn from Brother Celestine that his good friend, Brother Jaroslav, has been sneaking off to the monastery basement. This behavior is suspicious, as Jaroslav clearly does not want anyone to know what he is up to. Since Celestine doesn’t know exactly where Jaroslav has been going, it’s up to you to investigate and find out.

### Where to Search the Monastery Cellar

The monastery cellar extends nearly the entire length of the large building and has multiple entrances. No matter which entrance you use, your objective is to reach a specific point shown on the in-game map.

You might need to pick a couple of locks depending on your chosen route, but the easiest way is to enter through the kitchen stairs. From there, turn through the door opposite the room where the monks are secretly gambling. This path takes you straight into the cellar.

As you proceed, you will come across an area with spilled wine. Be sure to examine this carefully. Beyond some wooden beams, you’ll notice some footsteps on the ground. Follow these to discover a strange locked door.

Finding this door completes this part of the Anamnesis quest and reveals what Brother Jaroslav has been hiding.

Tiffany Haddish reveals her surprise marriage on road trip: I want to ‘hold myself accountable’

Posted on by

**Tiffany Haddish Marries Herself During Girls’ Trip to Africa**

Wedding bells are ringing for Tiffany Haddish—well, for herself, that is. During a recent vacation to Africa with some close girlfriends, the actress and comedian surprised everyone by having a self-marriage ceremony.

“I thought to do that because first, I wanted to have a little party,” Haddish, 45, exclusively told The Post. “Second, I also wanted to hold myself accountable for some things.”

The “Girls Trip” star embarked on a real-life girls’ trip across Africa with her four best friends in the new Peacock docuseries *Tiffany Haddish Goes Off,* premiering November 13. She explained that although it might look like she’s doing well to her friends and the world, there are “things that I have not been honoring, for me.”

Haddish is coming off a challenging period that included two DUI-related arrests in 2022 and 2023. In 2024, she also faced backlash on social media after posting a TikTok during her Africa trip, marveling at Zimbabwe having a grocery store.

“I feel like it was just like a constant attack on her when she didn’t have any bad intent,” said her friend Sparkle Clark, who appears in the series. “I just talked to Tiffany and I was like, ‘I think that before you post [on social media] you should call us or talk to us about it first.’ Tiffany is not this person who they make her out to be. She really has a kind heart.”

Haddish admitted that dealing with social media backlash feels “like walking on a Lego.” She added, “I’ve got to be more careful about what I post. It’s irritating, but it’s a part of the business.”

In the series, Haddish travels with childhood friends Selena Martin, Shermona Long, and Sparkle Clark through locations including Zimbabwe and Cape Town, South Africa. Their friendships pre-date Haddish’s fame.

“What an honor that these women have gone on this life journey with me since we were little girls. But also it’s a testament to how awesome we all are at communication. I think a lot of friendships fall apart because they don’t communicate,” Haddish told The Post.

She recalled a time after a radio interview when one friend called a week later to share that she’d felt “hurtful.” “We’re gonna talk about it. We have conversations and [it leads to] much growth. So to be able to go to Africa together is something that I’ve been talking about for years,” Haddish said. She jokingly added that her “bad” friends “didn’t make it” and “didn’t get to go on a trip,” but her close pals were there for her impromptu self-marriage ceremony.

Haddish was previously married to William Stewart from 2008 to 2013 and was in a relationship with rapper Common from 2020 to 2021.

“This marriage to me has been going very good. We have been having a fantastic time seeing who our third is going to be,” Haddish joked. “Who is gonna be the third wheel?”

She is also close with comedian Kevin Hart, who once helped her financially during a difficult time when she was homeless and living in her car. When asked if she told friends like Hart about the marriage, Haddish quipped, “You just told him.”

“It’s not everybody’s business that I’m in a relationship with me. I mean, first of all, my relationship with me is my relationship. So I haven’t told everybody,” she explained. “Sometimes I wear my wedding ring and people are like, ‘Oh, my God, where did you get that?’ I’m like, ‘Africa. I’m married!’”

Surprisingly, Haddish revealed that the self-marriage has positively impacted her dating life. “I’m getting more dates now when I tell [men] I’m married. If you tell a man you’re married, but you’re willing to go out with him, he’s like, ‘Oh, she’s a freak!’”

The Emmy-winning actress emphasized the importance of her self-marriage. “If you going to keep any promises in life, the promises you make to yourself are the main ones you need to be keeping. That’s the longest relationship you’re going to have, and there’s no ceremony for you, to you. There’s no ceremony for that,” she said. “So, f-k it, I’m marrying me.”
