Hi All, reporting in with some pretty crazy news for those of you that may have interacted with UniSwap in the past.
Edit: (from UniSwaps Blog @ https://uniswap.org/blog/uni/)
400 UNI are claimable by each address that has ever called the Uniswap v1 or v2 contracts. This includes ~12,000 addresses that have only ever submitted failed transactions — love you guys.
Many of you may have noticed a crazy uptick in ETH gas prices right now. Well there sure is a great reason to spend some crazy ETH on gas right now. For those of you that have used UniSwap before, go to https://app.uniswap.org/#/swap and click the 3 dots in the top right of your screen. I had it pop up I was eligible for 400 free Uni, and you very well may be eligible too.
Ensure to have enough gas on hand to approve spending of the uni, and the swap, between .4 and .5 is ultimately safest to have on hand to ensure all swaps go through. If you see Uni with a potential of about $3 or more per token, by all means HODL, but if you need some quick cash or want another token you believe in, this is an absolute god-send to transfer
