A federal judge ruled in favor of Uniswap Labs, lifting legal uncertainty that had lingered since 2022 and prompting renewed investor confidence in the decentralized exchange’s governance token.
A U.S. federal judge dismissed with prejudice a class action against Uniswap Labs and founder Hayden Adams, concluding that the company had no actual knowledge of fraud involving scam tokens. This ruling, delivered in March 2026, helped boost the price of UNI by about 6%, reaching $3.97, as it removed legal risks and enhanced investor confidence in the platform’s governance token.
