I\u2019m excited to see what we build together.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The partnership came at a time when Uniswap is facing major headwinds, including the soaring competition from other DEX networks like PancakeSwap and Raydiu. Most of the competition is coming from perpetual DEX networks like Hyperliquid, edgeX, Lighter, and Aster.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>For example, data compiled by DeFi Llama shows that Uniswap handled over $60 billion in volume in January, much lower than the October high of $123 billion. Its fees dropped to $58 million from the October high of $132 million.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Hyperliquid\u2019s volume in January stood at over $208 billion, while its fees was $78 million. Aster and Lighter are handling more volume than Uniswap as demand for decentralized perpetual futures rise.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">UNI price prediction: Technical analysis<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Uniswap price chart | Source: crypto.news\u00a0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The daily timeframe chart shows that the UNI crypto price has been in a strong downward trend in the past few months. It dropped from a high of $12.30 in August to a low of $2.80 this month.<\/p>\n<p>The coin rebounded and retested the important resistance level at $4.55 after the BlackRock announcement. This price was important as it coincides with the neckline of the head-and-shoulders chart pattern that formed between April and January this year.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, there are signs that the coin has formed a break-and-retest pattern, a common continuation sign in technical analysis. This pattern often leads to a continuation, meaning the downward trend will resume as the crypto market crash continues.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Uniswap price spiked after securing a major deal with Securitize, BlackRock\u2019s partner.\u00a0 Summary UNI price jumped after a major partnership between Uniswap and Securitize.
