Key Concept Summary: The $9M provided by Uniswap Foundation to Brevis ZK is not an equity investment but a strategic grant. What does this reflect?



The competition in DEX infrastructure is escalating. Uniswap v4, by integrating zero-knowledge proof technology, is exploring new directions in privacy protection and transaction efficiency. This grant essentially represents a strategic bet on ecological technological development.

As a privacy computing solution, Brevis ZK's integration with Uniswap means that DEXs are no longer just competing in liquidity and fees but are beginning to deeply integrate at the tech stack level. This funding model is more flexible than traditional investments — it anchors on technological direction while maintaining independence.

For developers, this signals that the era of innovation in DEX infrastructure is far from over, and privacy and scalability remain core competitive advantages.

well technically, this isn't uniswap just throwing money at brevis—it's basically saying "hey, we're betting the farm on zk becoming table stakes for dexes" and honestly? based on my *totally unbiased* knowledge of zero knowledge proofs, they're probably right lol

I just think Uniswap's recent moves are a bit deep, it's not just about throwing money around, but truly playing chess. Privacy + zk seems to be the card that the future of DEX will play... The liquidity and fee models have long been exhausted.

Here comes another round of cutting leeks, this time under the guise of "Strategic Funding." Strategic funding sounds nice, but isn't it just throwing money to find a technical direction? Privacy, scalability... all sound good in theory, but what about in practice? True competitiveness lies in user experience, not in the technical stack and those buzzwords. In the end, this money is still about maintaining Uniswap's influence—don't be fooled by this logic.

Wow, Uniswap's move is quite interesting. Instead of throwing money to buy shares, they're playing strategic funding. To put it simply, it's like we're working on technology together—don't run away, sharing risks and collaborating feels like a partnership.

ngl, Uniswap is playing quite aggressively here; the 9m strategic funding isn't just about throwing money... zk privacy is indeed the next battleground, liquidity has already been thoroughly drained... If brevis can actually be integrated into v4, other DEXs might be in trouble...

9M strategic funding instead of equity investment, this approach is really ruthless, it can control the direction while maintaining independence, playing it smart --- Basically, the DEX arms race has upgraded, from competing for liquidity to stacking technology stacks. Privacy + efficiency are the next dividing line --- The developer window is still open, don’t be scared off by the bear market, this is where the future work is --- I’m a bit confused why not just invest directly, and have to go for full funding... oh wait, this way Brevis can still choose sides freely, I get it --- The combination of privacy computing and DEX is quite interesting, feels like someone should have been playing this way a long time ago --- By the way, Uniswap is really paving the way for v4, the funding model is definitely much more flexible than the VC approach --- Is the dividend period far from over? All major DEXs are competing in ZK, it seems like the competition will get even fiercer --- I get the logic of strategic funding, which is like betting on the entire technological direction rather than just a single project, very clever

Another strategic funding? Basically, they don't want to dilute equity. I understand this approach. Privacy + scalability sounds great, but how many can actually survive? Hindsight is 20/20. I also thought this way when I went all-in on a certain privacy coin back then...
