Uniswap

April

The average daily trading volume on the Uniswap decentralized exchange has approached $3 billion over the past week. 
According to DefiLlama, between April 10 and April 15, Uniswap’s average daily trading volume was $3.08 billion. 
Breaking the $3 billion mark indicates that <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/dex/" target="_blank" rel="">DEX</a> did not record a decline in the indicator amid news of a possible legal confrontation with the U.S. SEC.
