Decentralized exchange Uniswap announced that its web application now supports Solana, allowing users to connect their Solana wallet and swap SOL tokens directly from the app.
"Until now, Uniswap Web App users had to leave the app to trade on Solana," Uniswap wrote in its Thursday blog post. "With support built in, you can now access tokens across Ethereum, Solana, Unichain, Base, and more — all from the Uniswap Web App."
Uniswap stated its goal is to address the fragmentation in DeFi resulting from the separate development of the Ethereum and Solana ecosystems.
"That kind of fragmentation makes DeFi harder than it should be. It adds friction for experienced swappers and raises the barrier for people just getting started," the announcement said.
The announcement noted that the launch is the first stage of integrating Solana into its apps. The next steps for the initiative involve bridging, cross-chain swaps and full Uniswap Wallet support, the team said.
Since launching in 2020, Solana has emerged as a major player in the DeFi ecosystem, known for its high-speed, low-cost transactions and scalability, which make it a strong competitor to Ethereum. As of October 2025, Solana has over $10.9 billion in total value locked in DeFi protocols, according to data from DefiLlama.
