- Uniswap’s L2 swap volume had exceeded $180 billion by mid-2025, already surpassing the overall 2023.
- New features such as gas-free restricted orders and smart wallets will drive the growth of L2 users’ adoption in UNISWAP.
By mid-2025, UNISWAP was able to record swap volumes of over $180 billion from the Layer 2 (L2) network alone. Not only is this figure higher than the 2023 total, it is on track this year to outperform its 2024 results. And interestingly, it’s not even six months yet.
Here’s a comparison that appeared in the community. Last year, UNISWAP’s total L2 swap reached approximately $311 billion. So, if the current pace continues, you can finish the calendar with new records in 2025.
In the past few months alone, monthly volumes from networks such as Arbitrum and Base regularly exceed $3.0 billion, previously only seen in Ethereum’s L1. now? The L2 network is beginning to take a central stage.

Behind the surge in Uniswap’s L2 volume
There is more than one or two things. Meanwhile, the convenience offered by the L2, such as cheap gas prices and highways, is much more appealing to everyday traders. But Uniswap is still not standing there either. They are enthusiastically adding features and making swap activities easier.
For example, just a few days ago, CNF reported that Uniswap now offers gas-free, limited orders via Uniswapx integration. This is a suitable solution for traders who don’t want to worry about it. Simply open the UNISWAP web application, select the token, set the desired price, set the order period and you’re done.
If the condition is met, the restriction order will be executed automatically immediately. Simple and efficient, without thinking about gas fees.
Plus, just a week after that feature, UniSwap has released a smart wallet that allows for one-click swap and automatic transaction bundles. It uses the EIP ‑ 7702 and EIP ‑ 5792 standards. This is a new technology that is widely discussed by developers.
Their internal DAO community sometimes discusses the direction of the protocol, but these innovative features continue to work. And in fact, users keep coming.
Of all this, Uniswap also welcomed new integrations with Sony via the Soneium Network. It may sound technical, but the impact is very broad. Through this partnership, UNISWAP will open a cross-chain exchange path, including digital collectibles and tokenized IPs. Imagine if you can just click and exchange GameSkins or Digital Collection Cards once. The road there is wide open.
People used to have to choose higher Ethereum rates or slower speeds on small networks, but now Layer 2 of bases, arbitrum, optimism and more are here as the answer. And Uniswap knows exactly how to use it.
Meanwhile, at the time of reporting, Uni has changed its hands at about the time of reporting. $7.81top 5.65% Over the past 24 hours 31.78% The past 30 days.
