Polkadot’s Parachain Moonbeam Taking Uniswap on its Network

Polkadot further mentioned the arrival of Uniswap to its ecosystem. It mentioned, “Uniswap’s arrival in the Polkadot ecosystem adds visibility and momentum towards the development of a new world of decentralized financial products & services on Polkadot.”

Notably, the initiative to bring Uniswap to Polkadot along with Moonbeam was led by Michigan Blockchain. It then successfully passed the governance processes of Moonbeam on May 17th with strong community support. Once this gets live, all the parachains will have immediate access to Uniswap.

Omar Elassar, the Global Head of Growth and BD at Parity Technologies shared his thoughts on this team-up. He said “Polkadot is a strong fit for Uniswap. Its DeFi ecosystem benefits from a marquee name in the space.”
