Uniswap has begun rolling out Uniroute, a completely rebuilt swap routing engine that delivers improved pricing across multiple networks.​

Performance improvements after one month of testing:

  • ~56% of swaps on Ethereum
  • ~62% of swaps on Base
  • ~67% of swaps on Arbitrum
  • ~76% of swaps on Unichain

The new routing engine represents a significant infrastructure upgrade for the decentralized exchange, potentially saving users money on the majority of their trades.​ The gradual rollout suggests Uniswap is taking a measured approach to deploying the new system.​

Uniroute's strongest performance appears on Unichain, where it improves pricing on more than three-quarters of swaps.​
