The Series A investment round raised $11 million for Uniswap in 2020. Andreessen Horowitz led the round with heavy participation from big-name investors Version One, Parafi Capital, Variant, SV Angel, and A. Capital, along with Union Square Ventures. The capital raised was to facilitate the development and scaling of Uniswap’s non-custodial trading services.
As reported by crypto.news earlier, Uniswap also came to the attention of regulators when the Commodity Futures Trading Commission filed an order against Uniswap Labs on Sept. 4, 2024, for allowing illegal trading in digital asset derivatives. Under the terms of the settlement, Uniswap Labs was required to pay a $175,000 civil penalty and stop violating the CEA.

The continued shift of funds to Coinbase Prime, a service designed specifically for institutional investors, indicates a systematic approach to managing its UNI assets.
