The integration, confirmed in a January 16 post on X, allows users to swap tokens, provide liquidity, and explore X Layer markets directly via the Uniswap web app, wallet, and trading API. This move strengthens Uniswap’s multi-chain strategy and provides OKX users with enhanced access to decentralized finance tools.
Zero Interface Fees and Native Market Access
At launch, Uniswap is offering zero interface fees on X Layer, significantly reducing swap costs for users. Participants can immediately trade key assets including USDG and other major stablecoins, as well as native markets like xBTC and USDT.
OKX stated that this integration provides deep liquidity, low transaction fees—often only a few cents per swap—and institutional-grade infrastructure while upholding robust security standards. The exchange further noted that introducing Uniswap to X Layer supports its overarching objective of merging centralized exchange access with decentralized trading capabilities.
The rollout has been met with positive reception from the crypto community on X, with users commending the smoother on-chain execution and improved access to DeFi products for OKX’s global user base.
Part of Uniswap's Broader Expansion Strategy
The deployment on X Layer follows a series of recent enhancements across the Uniswap ecosystem. In late December 2025, Uniswap governance approved the burning of 100 million UNI tokens from its treasury and the removal of interface fees across its platforms.
Uniswap has also broadened its integrations to include emerging networks like Monad, added support for Ledger wallets, and strengthened fiat on-ramps through partners such as Revolut. Additionally, Uniswap introduced Solana support, enabling direct swaps of Solana tokens within its Web App.
With the addition of X Layer support, Uniswap continues its focus on reducing trading costs and ensuring seamless multi-network access. Concurrently, OKX enhances its layer-2 offering by integrating one of DeFi's most significant protocols.
