Uniswap Crypto Nears Cup-and-Handle Breakout Amid V4 Ethereum Volume Surge

Principali approfondimenti:

• Uniswap crypto could be headed for a retracement as part of its cup-and-handle price pattern.
• Uniswap V4 handled more than 50% of the total DEX volumes on the Ethereum ecosystem.
• The leading decentralized exchange secures second place in the tokenized commodities ranking.

Uniswap Crypto just concluded yet another bullish run, with the price pushing past $10 for the first time in months. But beyond the UNI price action, the Uniswap protocol has also been celebrating some wins.

The Uniswap crypto has been experiencing significant demand, and part of it was organic. The latest market data revealed that the protocol has secured a large share of DEX volumes.

For context, Uniswap V4 has reportedly secured 50% of the Ethereum DEX volumes since late August last year. Moreover, it has held the top position since March this year, compared with other Uniswap versions and Curve Finance.

Interestingly, Aave V4 has secured dominance within the first 6 months after its launch. This highlights the rapid adoption rate that it has achieved since March.

Uniswap Claims Second Place in Tokenized Commodities Boom

Le RWAs segment has been rapidly gaining traction in 2026. Tokenized commodities, in particular, have seen significant uptake, and Uniswap is one of the protocols driving that growth.

According to Token Terminal, Uniswap is now the second-largest DeFi protocol by tokenized commodities. Aave secured the top position with 51.3% of the deposits. Uniswap V3 held 17.3% of the tokenized commodities market share, while Uniswap V4 ranked third at 11.2%.

Uniswap’s ability to capture RWA volumes was noteworthy, considering that it is one of the key narratives this year. As such, the native Uniswap crypto stands to gain from organic demand.

Beyond the RWA volumes, the subsequent network or protocol activity was evident. For example, Uniswap crypto TVL jumped from around $2.93 billion on 18 August to over $4 billion by 26 September.

The TVL spike was also accompanied by a sizable uptick in DEX volume during the same period, compared to the previous few months. This was more evident on the monthly scale.

Uniswap has already clocked over $81.7 billion worth of monthly DEX volume so far this month. This was more than double the $39.8 billion DEX volume it registered in May. This was its lowest monthly DEX volume year to date. Despite its strong performance this month (September), DEX volumes were still shy of the levels last seen in August and October 2025.

Here’s Why Uniswap Crypto May Face More Short-Term Sell Pressure

The DEX’s impressive performance has no doubt spilled over into Uniswap crypto. The latter traded at $9.7 at press time, up about 86% so far this month. This was its highest monthly gain since February 2024.

Le bullish momentum has been building within a recovery trend that has been in place for 3 months. However, zooming out reveals a pattern that may reveal its next potential move.

UNI price has been forming a cup and handle pattern. Its latest top suggests the price may be headed toward the last handle, which could be characterized by a sizable pullback.

This long-term pattern has been at play since November last year. If the pattern remains consistent, then UNI price may pull back by as much as 50% or even more.

However, it is worth noting that price may not always yield specific outcomes. UNI price may still lend itself to bullish momentum for the next resistance retest above $12. Uniswap crypto topped out at $10.9 earlier in the week.
