This new “interface fee” is distinct from Uniswap’s existing “protocol fee” and is being levied by Uniswap Labs to “sustainably fund our operations”, as mentioned in a company blog post. Hayden Adams, the inventor of Uniswap, has underscored that this fee is one of the lowest in the industry and will aid the company’s continuous efforts toward the development and expansion of crypto and DeFi.

Following the story's release, a Uniswap representative clarified that both the input and output token must be on the list for the fee to be applicable.

Why It Matters: This move by Uniswap Labs comes on the heels of the company’s recent initiative to broaden its user base.
