- Uniswap officially launches Smart Wallets, enabling one-click swaps and bundled transactions using EIP‑7702 and EIP‑5792 standards.
- Despite internal DAO tensions and rising exchange supply, Uniswap continues advancing with Smart Wallet innovations.
Uniswap Labs has finally enabled a long-awaited new feature: Smart Wallets. Uniswap Wallet users—both mobile and extension—can now access the convenient, gas-efficient one-click swap capability. A single click is all it takes to complete a crypto asset exchange that used to involve two steps: approval and swap. Now, both are automatically bundled.
A new era of wallet UX is here 🦄

Smart Wallets Run on EIP‑7702, No Migration Needed
The feature is built on the EIP-7702 standard introduced via an Ethereum upgrade called “Pectra.” With this technology, traditional user accounts don’t need to migrate to a smart contract wallet. Simply activate the Smart Wallet, and all the advanced features are ready to go. It’s like adding cruise control to your manual car—the same experience, but much more convenient.
Looking back, CNF previously reported that Uniswap had already built support for Sony’s Soneium into its wallet. The collaboration allows users to swap assets, bridge networks, and even pave the way for transactions in collectibles and tokenized IP. So, the launch of Smart Wallet is actually just part of a long journey that they have planned for a long time.
Uniswap Balances Progress With Community Friction
Behind this big step, the Uniswap community has faced a small storm. In early May, a delegate named “Pepo” chose to resign from his position. In his statement, he said that the community’s voice was increasingly marginalized.
He highlighted the dominance of the Uniswap Foundation, which he said made too many decisions without transparently involving the DAO. In response, Devin Walsh, the director of the Foundation, said that input from delegates remains a priority, although many considered the response to sound… well, standard.
Furthermore, market conditions cannot be ignored. The UNI token itself, when this article was written, was trading at around $7.28—down more than 10% in the last 24 hours. The decline was not only due to technical pressure, but also due to the domino effect of the conflict in the Middle East, especially Israel’s attack on Iran.
Even on-chain data shows that the UNI supply on exchanges has risen sharply to its highest level since February, touching 85.6 million tokens. This is usually a signal for big investors to prepare to sell. Whale ownership also decreased from 846 million to 747 million.
On the other hand, Uniswap continues to advance. Smart Wallet not only offers one-click swaps, but has also integrated EIP-5792. This means that in the future complex transactions such as approve + LP or bridge + swap can be done in one send. Their plan also includes a feature for paying gas using other tokens or even making it free through sponsors.
If usually DeFi users have to worry about gas fees, separate approvals, and layered transactions, then all of that is slowly starting to be simplified.
