Uniswap is a decentralized crypto exchange (DEX) that runs on the Ethereum blockchain. Instead of using a traditional order book, Uniswap relies on smart contracts and a system called 'automated market making' (AMM). This basically means you can swap tokens without needing a middleman. Instead, trades happen through liquidity pools.

The best part? No account needed, no verification, and you can start trading instantly as long as you have an Ethereum wallet (like a Metamask wallet). That makes Uniswap super accessible and perfect for anyone who wants to trade tokens quickly and hassle-free.

Uniswap even has its own token, called UNI. Holding UNI gives you voting rights, meaning you can help decide the future of the platform. People who buy Uniswap can actually use this governance token to participate in decisions.

Uniswap uses automated market making (AMM), meaning the platform runs on an algorithm that sets token prices and enables swaps without needing an order book.

Instead of buyers and sellers, Uniswap works with liquidity pools. Users can deposit their tokens into these pools in exchange for a financial reward. Other traders then use these pools to swap tokens. Smart contracts handle everything, so Uniswap runs entirely without a third party, completely decentralized.

Uniswap makes money by taking a small cut from the trading fees. These fees are then shared with liquidity providers and UNI token holders.

Uniswap was created by Hayden Adams, a former mechanical engineer at Siemens. The platform launched on November 2, 2018. Adams was fascinated by Automated Market Makers (AMMs) and decided to build a platform where users could swap crypto without relying on a centralized exchange. And that’s how Uniswap was born, a DEX where you can trade tokens directly from your wallet, without any middlemen.

Uniswap is built on the Ethereum blockchain and uses smart contracts for automated market making. The platform mainly relies on two key components: liquidity pools and the AMM algorithm.

Liquidity pools are collections of tokens that users deposit. These tokens are traded based on supply and demand. Liquidity (how easily an asset can be bought or sold) is dynamically adjusted based on buy and sell orders.

The AMM algorithm sets token prices based on the amount of each token in the liquidity pool. Every time someone places a buy or sell order, the algorithm recalculates the price. That means token prices on a DEX like Uniswap are always changing in real time, depending on supply and demand, often offering some of the best rates in the market.

Since Uniswap runs on the Ethereum network, all transaction data is stored on Ethereum as well. Uniswap’s smart contracts are open-source, meaning anyone can check them out.

Overall, Uniswap’s entire tech setup is designed for decentralized, automated market making. That makes it easy to use and gives users access to a wide range of tokens.

Like any platform, Uniswap has its pros and cons. One major perk is that you can trade directly from your own wallet (like Metamask or another software wallet). Just hit ‘connect,’ approve the app, and start swapping, no account or verification required.

Another big plus? Decentralized exchanges like Uniswap usually offer a huge variety of tokens. In this case, we're talking about ERC-20 tokens (a type of token that runs on Ethereum).

Uniswap has also introduced advanced trading options, like stop-loss and limit orders, something that wasn’t possible before but was added in 2024.

That said, Uniswap isn’t perfect. Since there’s no account system, there’s also no regulation, which means less protection against risks like hacks or scams. Also, the cost of trading depends on Ethereum’s network fees, if those go up, your Uniswap transactions will get more expensive too. That’s a common issue with Ethereum-based platforms.
