The Uniswap V3 contracts deployment on Polygon as a catalyst for growth
On November 18, we analyzed a study where 50% of Uniswap V3 liquidity providers suffered negative returns, which called for a change.
On December 18, we saw an official announcement from the Uniswap Labs Twitter page that they will deploy Uniswap V3 contracts based on the votes that reflected over 99.3% approval consensus.
It will be submitted by a $20 million fund, where $15 million are for the long-term liquidity mining campaign, and $5 million are for the overall adoption of Uniswap on Polygon.
This approval comes in the form of an on-chain vote, where over 72.6 million users from the community participated.
This was a proposal which was published by Polygon CEO Mihailo Bjelic on November 20, which was open for voting until December 18.
This proposal argued that deploying to Polygon PoS can bring a lot of benefits, such as base growth, savings for users, higher activity, revenue, market capture, and return to the original DeFi Vision.
Bjelic also noted that it was the right moment for Uniswap to deploy on Polygon, which would cite their position as the second strongest DeFi ecosystem after Ethereum L1.
