According to Blockworks, Uniswap Labs has announced the release of three new products aimed at simplifying swapping on the decentralized exchange. The new products include a Uniswap extension tool, a limit order function for its web app, and a data and insights web page. Uniswap is currently the largest decentralized exchange (DEX) by total value locked (TVL), with Uniswap v3 boasting a TVL of $3.044 billion.
Callil Capuozzo, the VP of design at Uniswap Labs, stated that the extension tool has been in development for some time and will help the DEX become a more complete platform for swapping. The Uniswap extension tool resides in a user's browser sidebar, allowing for easy access even when switching between multiple tabs or pages. Users can custody their assets across different chains, and the latest extension is unique because it allows users to connect to the tool through their mobile devices. The extension tool is currently in beta testing, and interested users must join a waitlist to gain access.
The limit order function and data analytics dashboard are available to users immediately. The limit order function, accessible on the front end of the Uniswap UI, enables users to place a limit order for any token available on Uniswap. Users can set a price for their swap to execute at, and if the market reaches that price within a set time frame, the swap will execute. If the set price is not reached, the swap will not execute. The data and insights webpage allows users to discover new tokens and view real-time data and information on individual tokens. Capuozzo hopes that these tools will simplify the onboarding process onto Uniswap and enhance the way people swap on the platform.
