bitcoinethereumnews.com reports that Uniswap V4 has secured 31% of the tokenized-stock liquidity market, holding $59.1 million against a total sector value of $192.6 million. This liquidity depth surpasses Kamino, which holds $41.7 million, and Uniswap V3, which holds $20.9 million. Together, these three protocols control 63% of the total value locked in the sector.
The report notes that sector TVL has increased by 2,218.8%, with further inflows into V4 potentially reinforcing its advantage. This activity is directly boosting Uniswap’s economics, with daily revenue surging toward $600,000 and an annualized run rate near $220 million. The protocol’s V3 supports daily burns of roughly $598,000, while V4 generates over $10 million in daily fees.
Extending the fee swap mechanism to V4 could accelerate UNI removals as supply tightens. Large holders are positioning around this supply narrative, with BitMEX cofounder Arthur Hayes receiving 244,406 UNI worth $1.73 million via Flowdesk. Hayes used an over-the-counter route to limit market disruption and transferred $250,000 USDC to FalconX for future purchasing capacity. Fresh wallets added another $2.9 million while exchange balances fell by more than 350,000 UNI, indicating net absorption.
