Uniswap founder Hayden: Correlated trading pairs will drive AMM into the global financial market

Uniswap founder Hayden posted on the X platform, stating that correlated trading pairs are forming. The top five tokenized SPY trading pairs by trading volume serve as "bridge" trading pairs connecting other common underlying trading pairs, primarily linking to tokenized stocks with higher correlations. This type of market is characterized by globalization, programmability, low costs, and 24/7 operation.Hayden stated that he has been working on the forefront of DeFi for 9 years and believes that AMM has enormous potential. After years of evolution and development, the path for AMM to achieve global dominance is becoming increasingly clear. Tokenization has changed the existence of markets, market makers, and the objects of market trading. Since its launch, Uniswap has been operating autonomously, with a cumulative trading volume exceeding $4.6 trillion, and has increased the share of spot trading volume on decentralized exchanges from less than 1% to over 20%.As AMMs like Uniswap continue to evolve, their liquidity has formed a pattern that most financial markets have yet to notice: correlated trading pairs. AMMs have found a product-market fit in long-tail markets, as most assets previously could not attract the attention of professional market makers. DeFi and AMM have lowered the barriers to market making, opening the market to more participants. Liquidity will concentrate in the places with the lowest risk, rather than being forced to remain in places constrained by traditional infrastructure.

Uniswap founder Hayden Adams stated that after nine years of DeFi practice, the path for AMM to become the core engine of the global financial market is becoming increasingly clear. He pointed out that tokenization is not only an infrastructure upgrade but also changes who provides liquidity and what is traded in the market. The SEC has approved Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange to trade tokenized stocks, and the DTCC also conducted live testing of tokenized trading in July.Adams believes that traditional market makers vertically integrate capital, strategy, execution, settlement, and distribution, which is costly; blockchain disassembles these components, making capital a scarce input. Liquidity providers who already hold relevant assets or are the issuers themselves can bear inventory exposure at zero cost, thereby weakening professional market makers with lower capital costs. An on-chain "related asset pair" model has naturally formed (such as the Ethereum ecosystem pairing with ETH and stablecoins), as correlation reduces inventory risk and deepens liquidity.He cited that there are already 10 tokenized stocks on the Robinhood Chain forming a Uniswap pool with SPY, which has traded approximately $33 million in 12 days, with some trades occurring directly between stocks without touching the dollar. Adams also stated that although Uniswap's cumulative trading volume has reached about $4.6 trillion, AMM is still in its early stages, and there is significant room for improvement in subsequent design and ecosystem.
