Uniswap to charge 0.15% swap fees beginning Oct. 17

Fees will not be collected on inter-stablecoin trades, nor on wrapping Ether.

Decentralized exchange Uniswap (UNI) will begin charging a 0.15% swap fee on certain tokens in its web application and wallet on October 17.

According to a post by Hayden Adams, the DEX's founder, the affected tokens are Ethereum (ETH), USD Coin (USDC), Wrapped Ether (WETH), Tether (USDT), DAI, Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), Angle Protocol (agEUR), Femini Dollar (GUSD), Liquidity USD (LUSD), Euro Coin (EUROC), and StraitsX (XSGD). Shortly after publication, a spokesperson for Uniswap reached out to Cointelegraph, stating that "both the input and output token need to be on the list for the fee to apply."

The interface fees will be deducted from the output token amount. In addition, fees will not be collected on swaps between Ether and Wrapped Ether trading pairs, nor on inter-stablecoin swaps.
