Analysis: Enabling the Uniswap fee switch may cause a large number of fraudulent pools on Base to disappear
According to ChainCatcher, data analyst jpn memelord stated that one major effect of Uniswap enabling the fee switch is that fraudulent liquidity pools (such as honeypots and automated rugs) would disappear overnight, as these pools rely on the protocol's zero fee rate.
Based on rough estimates, about half of Uniswap's trading volume on Base may belong to this category. Unfiltered official data shows that Uniswap's trading volume on Base in 2025 is $208.07 billion, but after applying some filtering criteria, the non-fraudulent trading volume is only $77.38 billion.
