Bitcoin in turn dragged much of the industry higher, with only two assets – Huobi’s HT and Trust Wallet’s TWT – among the top 100 by market capitalization in the red on a 7-day basis, per CoinGecko.

This past week, Uniswap Labs’ development team instituted a select fee for their decentralized exchange, Uniswap. The initial results appear to be extremely lucrative, with the team earning $120,000 over 48 hours. Uniswap founder Hayden Adams announced the fees Monday in an X post. The fees applied only to 11 assets, only when two of those assets were traded in a paired pool, and only if the user was trading on the Uniswap mobile app or on the uniswap.org-linked frontend.
