The "DUNI" proposal recently put forward by Uniswap has sparked widespread attention in the industry, and this move is seen as laying the foundation for the future value release of the $UNI Token. Looking back, the fee switch mechanism that was hotly debated in 2024 was suspended by a16z due to compliance issues. The core of this proposal is to leverage Wyoming's DUNA legal framework to give the protocol a legal identification.

The DUNA model did not emerge out of thin air; as early as March 2024, a16z published related articles showing their active promotion in this field. This framework is specifically designed for decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), which is why the industry generally looks favorably on the feasibility of this proposal.

Currently, the proposal is still in the Request for Comments (RFC) stage. In the short term, Uniswap may prioritize launching features that are easier to implement, such as Unichain Staking, and then gradually transition to the fee switch mechanism.

In the long run, Uniswap is working to address long-standing institutional barriers. Although this process will take time, the development roadmap is already clear, laying the groundwork for the true launch of the UNI Token in the future.

This series of measures reflects Uniswap's forward-thinking and strategic layout in the DeFi field, providing new ideas for the compliance development of the entire industry. With the improvement of the legal framework and the gradual implementation of functions, the value potential of UNI Token may be further released, and it is worth the market's continuous follow.
