UNI’s financial report came out this week, with revenue at $9.5 million—at first glance, not bad? But the story behind it is pretty sobering.
A change in the tokenomics triggered a massive capital exodus. Revenue plummeted from tens of millions down to the single-digit millions—this isn’t just a minor dip. Simply put, a lot of holders lost confidence and voted with their feet, leaving faster than anyone expected.
Now the key question is what happens next: Can capital flow back in? If things stay quiet even after this round of adjustments is fully implemented, UNI’s spot as the leading DEX could really be at risk. After all, this sector is never short of challengers—fall behind even a little, and there are always others ready to take your place.

Isn't this just changing one model and the whole ecosystem collapses? It's too fragile.

Ah... UNI is really getting hard to hold onto. As soon as the tokenomics model changes, people start leaving. What does that say?

UNI is really done for this time. Bragging about 9.5 million in revenue? It'll be 0 next year, lol.
The die-hard fans have already bailed. Who's even sticking around here?
Just tweaking the tokenomics can tank the whole project like this—shows they have no clue what they're doing.
Plenty of competitors are circling. Even Curve could overtake them.
No more running, everyone who's bagholding might as well accept their fate.
As for DEXs, I’m honestly speechless at how Uniswap managed to mess up this move.

Damn, UNI really crashed hard this time. Changed the model and everyone bailed?
This is the power of tokenomics—a single decision wipes out all the chips.
9.5 million in revenue sounds okay, but in reality, it's just the last fig leaf.
Curve is eyeing them closely; if they slack off even a bit, it's over.
Can UNI make a comeback? The elimination mechanism in this sector is truly brutal.
If this round of reform still can't attract funds back, the DEX top spot will really go to someone else.
Those who bailed early must be laughing their asses off right now.
Hurry and change it back? Or just leave it as is—it's already hurt enough anyway.
Holders voting with their feet always works—money is more honest than anything else.

Bro, this adjustment is really harsh. I’m bullish on UNI but this time it’s honestly a bit scary.
---
So many people left just because of a tokenomics change, shows that confidence is really gone.
---
Still need to look at how the on-chain data moves, revenue isn’t everything.
---
Doesn’t matter who’s the DEX leader, the key is actual usage.
---
At this rate, Curve must be laughing their heads off.
---
Let’s wait and see what happens next, it’s too early to draw conclusions now.
---
9.5 million looks like a lot, but compared to last year, it’s really not enough.
---
Feels like they launched the policy change before figuring it out—now that really hurts.
---
Capital flowing back? I doubt it, market sentiment is the hardest thing to fix.

*checks notes* ah yes, the classic "tokenomics restructuring" phase... statistically speaking, this is exactly how the governance token death spiral started back in 2021. funny how we're repeating the playbook with remarkable precision, just different ticker

UNI really messed up with this model change. Did they only realize it after a round of dumping? Now all the funds have moved to Curve. Waiting for a rebound, but it doesn’t look promising.
