Uniswap lands on OKX’s X Layer as exchange deepens DeFi strategy
The integration marks a key step in the crypto exchange’s second-phase rollout, bringing Uniswap’s markets directly to its layer-2 network.
Uniswap has launched on X Layer, a layer-2 blockchain built by crypto exchange OKX, becoming the chain’s preferred decentralized exchange as OKX expands its decentralized finance footprint.
The integration gives X Layer users access to Uniswap’s markets, including crypto token pairs and liquidity pools, with swaps executed at layer-2 costs and no fees charged by Uniswap Labs, the protocol told Cointelegraph.
Launched in 2024, X Layer is OKX’s Ethereum Virtual Machine-compatible network, serving as core infrastructure for its DeFi applications. The network is integrated with OKX’s wallet and exchange, allowing users to move assets into the layer-2 network.
