In Uniswap’s initial tokenomics, it was stated that following the end of the unlock schedule, the UNI token could be subject to a perpetual issuance rate of 2% per year. Therefore, since September 2024, an annual issuance of 2% is allowed by the protocol. However, this inflation is not automatic, it must be activated by governance through an on-chain proposal. To date, no such issuance has been enacted.
Issuance rate
With a fixed supply and no mechanisms to increase or reduce it, the token is neither inflationary nor deflationary.
