With the launch of Uniswap V4 on the horizon, it is expected to further revolutionize the market by providing enhanced features and greater scalability. This upcoming upgrade is anticipated to attract more liquidity and users, reinforcing Uniswap’s position in the DeFi space.
Amid these developments, a significant whale activity was observed. A whale, identified by the address 0x57d32…, recently deposited 552.5K $UNI to Binance.
This whale had withdrawn the same amount four months ago, valued at $3.89M, which is now worth $2.82M, indicating a potential loss of $1.17M if sold now. This move reflects the broader market’s volatile nature and the strategic decisions large holders must make.
