Uniswap reveals wallet browser extension and other tools for easier cryptocurrency transactions

Uniswap UNI

+4.31%
launches three tools to facilitate easier cryptocurrency transfers.

The first is Uniswap Extension, a browser sidebar wallet extension that streamlines exchanging digital assets, signing transactions, and trading cryptocurrencies online. The other tools are limit orders, which automatically execute a user’s trade when a token reaches a certain price, and Data & Insight pages with charts, pool data, trade logs and other relevant information for traders.

Limit orders and Data & Insight pages launch today. Users should join the Uniswap Extensions waitlist by claiming a uni.eth username and expect access to the tool within four to six weeks, a company spokesperson said.

“We have long wanted to build Uniswap into a complete home for swapping. We think these new features are a powerful articulation of what it means to meet users wherever they are,” said Callil Capuozzo, Vice President of Design at Uniswap Labs. “We’re especially excited to be part of the world of extensions. Our extension is designed for the swapper in a way that others are not, and as we build out this platform we expect people to be able to seamlessly move from web to extension to the mobile app and see what they already know and like in all three cases.”

The move comes after the Uniswap Foundation proposed changes to the compensation structure to reward UNI strikers and delegators, The Block previously reported. Uni.eth usernames, launched on February 23, make Ethereum addresses human-readable.
