Uniswap is a distributed financial model on Ethereum. Anyone can use this model to establish a trading pair and an initial trading pool between two trading products on Ethereum. After the establishment of this trading pool, anyone can provide more liquidity to this trading pool. Any trading user can trade against this trading pool. Three thousandths of each transaction is contributed to the transaction pool as a commission. The accumulated transaction commission income generated by the transaction will be distributed to the liquidity provider. Such a process runs completely automatically on Ethereum, without any individual or institutional operation and maintenance. Since Uniswap can benefit liquidity providers, this application has been very warmly welcomed in the market. The number of assets provided in Uniswap can be seen from the figure below. Since June, the funds in the pool have grown rapidly. For users who trade on Ethereum, there is sufficient liquidity to trade any product on Ethereum.

Uniswap will have the most direct and greatest impact on future digital asset exchanges. Future digital asset exchanges can apply this model based on some basic improvements. These improvements include the adoption of permissioned chains, the identity authentication of trading users, the use of compliant digital currency and the generation process of tradable digital asset products, etc. These improvements and the application of the Uniswap model will further increase the advantages of digital asset exchanges over existing stock exchanges. First, the listing of trading products will be free. Secondly, since there is no need to use the transaction order mode, and liquidity does not need to be provided by a dedicated market maker, the cost of the current market maker in the securities market can be eliminated. Since anyone can participate in providing liquidity and profit from it, exchanges can provide sufficient trading liquidity. The operation of the exchange is completely based on the needs of the market. Manual operation and maintenance costs are greatly reduced. Since more users can participate in more businesses in the exchange ecosystem, this essentially further realizes inclusive finance.
