Arbitrum Reaches Milestone as First Layer 2 to Surpass $150B in Swap Volume

Uniswap has increased its dominance in stablecoin trading, now processing **57% of all stable-to-stable EVM volume** this month, up from 43% at the start of the year. In the last 30 days, the protocol handled **$16.6B in stablecoin volume** - more than the next four leading DEXs combined. This growth demonstrates Uniswap's strengthening position as the primary venue for stablecoin swaps across Ethereum Virtual Machine networks.

Base MCP now includes **native Uniswap integration** from launch, allowing AI agents to execute swaps and manage liquidity provider positions directly through Base Accounts. **Key features:** - Agents can swap tokens and handle LP positions without additional setup - Works seamlessly with Claude, ChatGPT, Codex and other AI platforms - No extra integrations needed - functionality is built-in The integration removes technical barriers for agents interacting with DeFi protocols. Users can access both Base MCP and Uniswap API through a unified interface at [base.org/agents](https://www.base.org/agents). This marks a shift toward agent-native DeFi infrastructure, where AI systems can execute on-chain actions as easily as they process text.

Uniswap has removed interface fees across its Web App and Wallet platform, making swaps more cost-effective for users. **Key changes:** - Zero interface fees now apply to all swaps - Available on both [Uniswap Web App](https://wallet.uniswap.org/?utm_medium=socials&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=wallet&utm_content=wallet) and Wallet - Users only pay network gas fees and protocol fees This move reduces the total cost of trading on Uniswap's platform. Interface fees, which previously went to the frontend operator, have been eliminated entirely. The change affects swappers across Uniswap V2, V3, and V4 protocols. Users can start taking advantage of fee-free swapping immediately through the platform.

The @bankrbot agentic ecosystem processed over $300 million in Uniswap protocol volume on Base in a single week, operating without requiring permissions. This milestone follows Bankr's previous achievement of $500M in total volume through their Uniswap hook, demonstrating consistent growth in their autonomous trading infrastructure. **Key Points:** - $300M+ weekly volume on Base network - Permissionless operation - Part of Bankr's broader agentic trading ecosystem The volume represents significant adoption of automated agent-driven trading on Uniswap's decentralized exchange infrastructure.

Uniswap has launched its Developer Platform in beta, allowing any builder to generate API keys and integrate swap and liquidity provider functionality directly into their applications. **Key Features:** - Instant API key generation for developers - Quick integration of swap functionality - Built-in LP (liquidity provider) capabilities - Launch timed for ETHDenver hackathon participants The platform aims to simplify the process of adding decentralized trading features to applications, reducing integration time from potentially days to minutes.
