Recently, many people have been discussing the destruction of UNI, and their words reveal some anxiety: "Only 24,000 tokens in just two days, isn't this pace too slow?" Naturally, this is accompanied by voices of those cutting losses.
However, from a different perspective, the current destruction data actually points to an opportunity that most people are overlooking.
First, let's clarify the operational logic behind UNI's destruction. This is not a PR stunt by the project team to boost the price, but a natural result based on market activity—essentially an "arbitrage-style destruction." Anyone who accumulates transaction fees worth 4,000 tokens of this asset can initiate a destruction process, and they can also aggregate fees from multiple liquidity pools.
Looking at the current data: the market triggers a destruction approximately every 6 to 8 hours, averaging exactly 4,000 tokens each time over two days. What does this mean? It indicates that the trading activity in the entire ecosystem is just enough to support this destruction frequency, operating entirely according to the established rules, with no signs of manipulation.
The key question is—why is the relatively low destruction volume now actually an opportunity? Because the growth potential is enormous. Currently, only the fees from V2 and some V3 pools are included in the destruction mechanism, while many other pools have not yet opened fee permissions. It's like a newly opened restaurant that only has 50% of its seats available, with huge room for revenue growth.
The real turning point will be the upcoming launch of the V4 pools. The breakthroughs in liquidity efficiency and fee architecture in V4 will fundamentally change the scale of destruction. Once the V4 ecosystem is fully rolled out, these numbers could experience a qualitative leap.

Uh... this analysis is indeed interesting, but I'm more concerned about when V4 will be launched. Otherwise, people who sell now might regret it later.

Uh... Can V4 really be this powerful? Let's wait and see.

Hi, I think those who cut losses might not have fully thought through the V4 move yet.
---
Everyone is focused on the destruction speed, but no one has noticed that the pool permissions haven't been fully opened yet. That's the opportunity.
---
Wait until V4 is fully launched, and those shouting "It's too slow" now will probably regret it.
---
Arbitrage-style destruction is indeed impressive; the market decides the pace itself, no one can manipulate it.
---
Only two days and 24,000 worried—so how do you play when V4 arrives?
---
The logic is actually very clear, but most people just like to focus on short-term data and worry blindly.
---
I think now is just a quiet period, and there will be a rapid acceleration later.
---
It feels a bit like watching the early days of DeFi; everyone overestimates the short term and underestimates the long term.

Wait, wait, wait, is V4 really coming? Then this burn rhythm is not a problem at all
---
People cutting losses probably didn't expect the pool permissions to still not be fully unlocked
---
I just want to know how many months after V4 launches, this number will multiply several times
---
Honestly, triggering a burn every 6 to 8 hours, the ecosystem activity is pretty good, why are some people still anxious
---
So, what they're doing now is paving the way for those who come after V4
---
Starting to get anxious at just 24,000? When V4 arrives, you'll be crying
---
I buy this logic, but only if V4 can be launched on schedule
---
Arbitrage-style burns are indeed clever; they are more reliable than those superficial burns
---
Permissions aren't fully unlocked yet, and you're imagining the volume of V4? That's a bit too optimistic
---
It sounds plausible, but we'll see if V4 can really boost these numbers

Wait, why do I feel like you all have been fooled by V4? V2 is the real cash cow.
