Uniswap price has climbed back above a long descending trendline, and the next move hinges on the $7 to $7.50 area. UNI is trading near $6.27 after recovering from a June low around $2.80. The token has formed higher lows for several weeks, and buyers are now pressing against a resistance band that could decide the near-term trend.
Whale Accumulation Near $5.76
One large wallet drew attention after buying roughly 294,680 UNI worth about $1.7 million in a short period. The average purchase price was reported near $5.76, and UNI now sits above that entry. That puts the position in profit. The buying happened around the same zone where UNI recently reclaimed support, so it adds some confidence to the bullish setup.
The more important tell might be what happens next. If the whale keeps withdrawing UNI from exchanges, available supply could tighten. If those coins move back to an exchange, selling pressure may increase. The $5.50 to $5.76 area remains the key reference point because it combines the breakout zone with the whale’s average cost.
Robinhood Chain Fees Give the Rally a Fundamental Angle
Uniswap’s multichain expansion is also part of the story. The protocol is live across 47 chains, and Robinhood Chain is reportedly generating around 66 percent of Uniswap’s fees. I think that number is worth watching closely, since fee income reflects actual usage. High trading volume on Robinhood Chain gives UNI investors a reason to look beyond the chart pattern.
Still, there are limits to what fee data tells us. A single chain can dominate for a while, and the mix may shift. But if Uniswap continues to see activity across multiple networks, that would be a stronger signal that its expansion is turning into real economic activity.
The $7 Zone and the Risk Below
Looking at the daily chart, UNI’s decline from earlier highs has turned into a series of higher lows. The breakout above the descending trendline was the first clear shift in structure. Now the $7 to $7.50 band is the main test. A daily close above $7, followed by a retest that holds, would confirm the breakout. From there, $8 becomes the next target, and the $9 to $10 area could come into view.
If buyers fail at $7, the trade setup changes quickly. UNI needs to hold the $5 to $5.50 zone to preserve the current bullish structure. A sustained move below $5.50 would weaken the trendline breakout and likely send the token toward $4.
Right now, UNI enters this test with momentum on its side. Whale accumulation near $5.76 and Robinhood Chain’s fee contribution provide some support beyond the technical breakout. But the market still needs a clean close above $7.50 before larger upside targets become realistic. Until then, the range above $5.50 gives bulls a fairly clear line in the sand.
