Uniswap Labs 宣布推出新的 Unichain Layer 2 以改善碎片化的 DeFi 体验

Uniswap 的原生治理代币 UNI 的价格在 Uniswap Labs 正式宣布之前的 24 小时内上涨了 14% 以上

The price of UNI, the native governance token for Uniswap, jumped more than 14% in the 24 hours before Uniswap Labs officially announced on Thursday morning at 9 a.m. ET that it was launching a new L2 network, prompting speculation that at least some traders had information about the news ahead of time and had traded on it.

Uniswap 的原生治理代币 UNI 的价格在 Uniswap Labs 于美国东部时间周四上午 9 点正式宣布将推出新的 L2 网络之前的 24 小时内上涨了 14% 以上，这引发了人们的猜测，至少有一些交易者已经提前了解有关新闻的信息并进行交易。

Over the same time period, the largest cryptocurrencies by market cap each dropped between 2% to 3%.

同一时期，市值最大的加密货币均下跌 2% 至 3%。

One significant piece of evidence for the speculation was a tweet from Joseph Delong, CTO of lending protocol Astaria, at 12:58 a.m ET Thursday, strongly implying that the announcement from the world's largest decentralized exchange was coming. In his post, Delong shared a screenshot of a 2022 article written by venture capitalist Dan Elitzer arguing that a Unichain L2 was inevitable. “Someone should accuse Dan of being a time traveler,” Delong commented.

这一猜测的一个重要证据是借贷协议 Astaria 首席技术官 Joseph Delong 在美国东部时间周四中午 12:58 发布的一条推文，强烈暗示全球最大的去中心化交易所即将宣布这一消息。 Delong 在帖子中分享了风险投资家 Dan Elitzer 在 2022 年撰写的一篇文章的屏幕截图，该文章认为 Unichain L2 是不可避免的。 “有人应该指责丹是一个时间旅行者，”德隆评论道。

The announcement about Unichain was also sent ahead of time on embargo to some news outlets, including Unchained. And crypto publication Bankless published a podcast about the news two hours before the official announcement.

关于 Unichain 的公告也提前向包括 Unchained 在内的一些新闻媒体发送了禁运消息。加密货币出版物 Bankless 在官方宣布前两小时发布了有关该消息的播客。

Noted crypto security expert Ogle told Unchained that UNI's rise appeared to be a clear case of people with advance information trading on the news.

著名加密货币安全专家 Ogle 告诉 Unchained，UNI 的崛起似乎是掌握预先信息的人根据新闻进行交易的明显例子。

“Any time a big thing happens at any company, crypto or not, people need to know about it to prepare. Almost invariably at least some of those people leak the info. So almost certainly that happened here and will almost always happen,” Ogle said. “The difference is that in crypto the markets are relatively illiquid, and the mouths are relatively free-flowing. So you end up with 12% gains before announcements.”

“任何时候任何公司发生大事，无论是否加密，人们都需要了解并做好准备。几乎总是有一些人泄露了信息。因此，几乎可以肯定，这种情况发生在这里，而且几乎总是会发生，”奥格尔说。 “不同之处在于，加密货币市场的流动性相对较差，而人们的言论相对自由。因此，在公告发布之前，您最终获得了 12% 的收益。”

A spokesperson for Uniswap Labs denied the possibility that any trading in UNI prior to the announcement could have been carried out by employees of the firm. “In an abundance of caution, Uniswap Labs implemented a trading restriction on UNI for its employees prior to the Unichain announcement,” the spokesperson said.

Uniswap Labs 的发言人否认了在公告发布之前 UNI 的任何交易都是由该公司员工进行的可能性。该发言人表示：“出于谨慎考虑，Uniswap Labs 在 Unichain 宣布之前对其员工实施了 UNI 交易限制。”

Data from Etherscan and Nansen also showed some significant trades involving UNI in the time leading up to the announcement.

来自 Etherscan 和 Nansen 的数据还显示了在宣布这一消息之前涉及 UNI 的一些重要交易。

farmertaiki.eth (0x98e) which has an overall balance exceeding $1 million, swapped $350,000 of USDC for UNI roughly an hour prior to Delong’s post on X was published. And a different address (0x1666), which has the ENS findnemo.eth and consistently interacts with staking pools, swapped $50,000 USDC for 6,443 UNI tokens at 8 a.m. Thursday, according to Nansen.

farmertaiki.eth (0x98e) 的总余额超过 100 万美元，在 Delong 在 X 上发布帖子之前大约一个小时，将 350,000 美元的 USDC 兑换成 UNI。据 Nansen 称，另一个地址 (0x1666) 拥有 ENS findnemo.eth 并始终与质押池交互，该地址于周四上午 8 点将 50,000 美元 USDC 兑换为 6,443 个 UNI 代币。
