Following the successful passage of Uniswap Delegate Reward Initiative - Cycle 4 , here’s the application process and application form.
Application Eligibility
There will be a week-long period for candidates to submit their applications. The application window will end Wednesday August 27 at 0:00 AM UTC (8:00 PM ET Tuesday August 26). The top 15 delegates will be determined based on a point system outlined below.
Delegates from Cycle 3 must apply again for Cycle 4–they will not be automatically included.
Only delegates who have participated in onchain voting for at least three months prior to the application post are eligible for Cycle 4.
In case there are more than 15 eligible applicants, the top 15 will be chosen by the following objective metrics. The highest number of available points will be 13.
There will only be one wallet used for tracking for such metrics unless a Delegate has communicated on their delegate platform on the forum that the voting address will be changed at the time of change. In case of if the Delegate did not communicate such change on the delegate platform on the forum, the Delegate applicant can only choose one wallet to be used for evaluating for the metrics.
Applicants will also need to agree to follow Principles for Uniswap DAO to be eligible.
1. Voting Participation
Since a delegate’s primary role is to utilize voting power from delegators and vote in Uniswap’s best interest, active participation is essential to ensuring quorums are met and malicious proposals are thwarted. This category carries a total of 7 points, with onchain voting weighted more heavily due to its ability to directly impact governance contracts and direct treasury funds. The voting rate is evaluated based on the past six months.
Offchain Voting (Snapshot)
90% and above: 3 80% to 90% : 2 70% till 80% : 1.5 60% till 70%: 1 50% till 60%: 0.5 50% or below: 0
Onchain Voting
90% and above : 4 80% till 90% : 2.5 70% till 80%: 1.5 60% till 70%: 1 50% till 60%: 0.5 Below 50%: 0
2. Proposal Authorship
Contributing to proposal drafting for Uniswap DAO is valuable, but maintaining quality and preventing malicious proposals is equally important. As a result, only successfully passed votes are counted. This category is worth a total of 3 points, with onchain proposals receiving greater weight once again.
For non-binary proposals, if a “No” equivalent option was available and the final voting outcome was a choice other than “No,” the proposal qualifies for points in this category. For example, the Uniswap Treasury Working Group (UTWG) Election would not be eligible, as there was no “No” vote option. However, the [Temp] Uni Onboarding Package - BSC would qualify, since an “Against” option was present, and the final outcome was “$1M.”
Only the sole author or co-authors explicitly mentioned on the proposal will receive credit.
Authored or Co-authored a proposal that passed offchain (Snapshot) vote before.
Yes, 2 or more: 1 Yes, 1: 0.5 No: 0
Authored or Co authored a proposal that passed onchain vote before
Yes, 2 or more: 2 Yes, 1: 1 No: 0
3. Community Participation
The full point for this category is 1.
Community Calls (March - August 2025)
Attended at least 80% of calls: 1 Attended at least 50% of calls: 0.5
Attended less than 50% of calls: 0
4. Delegate Owned UNI Token
The full point for this category is 1.
Blockchain signatures are required so Delegate can prove that Delegate has ownership of UNI Token. In addition, UNI token delegate claims to own must be delegated to the applicant delegate. One needs to have 1,000 UNI or more and have blockchain signature that verifies ownership from the wallet that holds 1,000 UNI or more by the time the applicant applies to gain extra 1 point in applications.
Ex) If StableLab wants to receive full point for this category, StableLab needs to hold at least 1,000 UNI, share in the application the wallet address where 1,000 UNI is being held, sign blockchain signature that confirms that the wallet belongs to StableLab and from that wallet address must delegate to StableLab.
Here’s an example of blockchain signature of ownership and delegation: https://etherscan.io/verifySig/278580
To qualify for this 1 point, the delegated owned 1,000 UNI must remain at least until the verification process is completed and the application results are announced.
Delegate owns 1,000 UNI and is delegated to Delegate applying
Yes: 1
No: 0
5. Perfect Participation
The full point for this category is 1.
Delegates with participation over the past 6 months: Voted in 100% of the proposals (both on Snapshot and on-chain), submitted rationale for 100% of their votes in time (7 days from the end of each vote), attended 100% of the community calls.
Yes: 1
No: 0
Tie Breaker
Ties will be decided by the date of the first onchain vote that these applicants cast in order to reward delegates who have been contributing to Uniswap governance for an extended period. The tie-breaking value will be determined based on the end date of the vote in which the delegates participated, not the onchain date when the vote was cast.
In the event of a tie with the first tie-breaker criterion, priority will be given to the delegate who has cast the most votes in the last 6 months.
In the event that the tie persists further, the final decision will favor the delegate who was first to present their delegation platform—hence, priority will be given to the individual/entity who first publicly declared their intention to become a delegate

Michigan Blockchain is an organization run by students at the University of Michigan. Our main goal is to educate students about blockchain and prepare them for roles within and outside our organization including governance, consulting, and investment. We have been involved and active in the Uniswap governance ecosystem for around four years now, and are also involved in governance across other DAOs. We think this program does a great job in incentivizing governance participants to first, consistently vote, and more importantly, make more informed voting decisions. We also appreciate that this program incentivizes engaging in discussion with community members, and is crucial in involving a wider pool of delegates to suggest improvements and share ideas about the protocol.

Applicant summary–briefly explain why you’re interested in applying for this Delegate Reward Initiative: SEEDGov is the first LatAm-based Delegate Platform, actively engaged in governance across multiple protocols. Our dedicated team is deeply passionate about Uniswap and fully committed to its governance. It has been an honor to participate in Cycle 3, and we are eager to continue collaborating with Uniswap Governance.
Our primary objective is to sustain active and meaningful participation, contributing to the growth and evolution of Uniswap Protocol and Unichain. Since joining, we have consistently maintained a 100% voting rate, with full participation and justification. We regularly attend community calls, share ideas, and raise relevant questions to strengthen proposals. Moving forward, we are not only committed to maintaining this standard but also to deepening our involvement and intensifying our collaboration for the benefit of Uniswap, Unichain, UNI token, the DAO, and its community.
We believe this new program cycle will further enhance both the quality and quantity of governance participation and discussions, ultimately reinforcing the protocol itself. In our case, the rewards received have been allocated to compensate the team dedicated to Uniswap delegation, as well as the broader support team in different areas. For this reason, continuing to count on governance incentives is key to ensuring we can sustain and expand our participation at the high standards of quality that Uniswap deserves.

The post outlines the list of top 15 delegates as well as addresses the questions and clarifications. For detailed breakdown in excel, it can be found here.
The maximum point possible was 13. There were no ties this time.
1,000 UNI token was expected to be hold and delegated and have a blockchain signature before the application period closes. As it was not posted before the application closed, the point won’t be considered.
As “Uniswap DAO Principles” has Avantgarde as an explicit co-author, we have considered, but for “[Temperature Check] - Deploy Uniswap V2 on all chains with V3”, we found it insufficient to be considered as explicit co-author.
To ensure transparency and also efficiency, detailed points are shared above. If there’s a challenge to the points calculation, please post such and we will consider either uphold, clarify, or change our decisions.

Applicant summary–briefly explain why you’re interested in applying for this Delegate Reward Initiative: Argonaut is a team of highly motivated crypto enthusiasts eager to participate in governance and make meaningful improvements where we see opportunities. We were part of the second cycle of this program and learned a lot from it. The financial compensation allowed us to better organize and bring new talent to the team. We would love to participate in the third cycle of this program to continue growing, add value to DAO governance, and take on key roles where the DAO sees us as a good fit.
Since our first vote, we have maintained a 100% voting participation rate and we will continue maintaning this participation and monitoring every proposal. Being part of the 4th cycle of the program presents a significant opportunity for our team, especially as a new, unfunded group. We’re driven by passion and would love the chance to dedicate more time to this work and create value for Uniswap!

Tané is formed with a group of crypto-native product builders, based in Tokyo, Dubai and New York. We are backed by SoftBank, and Japanese tech giants like DeNA, GREE, MIXI, and have great relationship with Japanese crypto communities.
We are applying for this initiative because we acknowledge the significance of the DeFi ecosystem, and we want to contribute to its growth and sustainability, particularly from a DAO governance perspective. Having already served as a delegate in Uniswap DAO, we aim to broaden our contributions within the community. Especially, we believe we can play an important role in the relationship between Uniswap DAO and Unichain. This is after the fact that we have been actively involved in the governance of Optimism Collective, including participation in the grants-related councils.

After examining the Voting Participation, Proposal Authorship, and Community Participation, Delegate Owned UNI Token, top 15 delegates have been selected. The post outlines the list of top 15 delegates as well as addresses the questions and clarifications. For detailed breakdown in excel, it can be found here.
The maximum point possible was 13. There were no ties this time.
1,000 UNI token was expected to be hold and delegated and have a blockchain signature before the application period closes. As it was not posted before the application closed, the point won’t be considered.
As “Uniswap DAO Principles” has Avantgarde as an explicit co-author, we have considered, but for “[Temperature Check] - Deploy Uniswap V2 on all chains with V3”, we found it insufficient to be considered as explicit co-author.
To ensure transparency and also efficiency, detailed points are shared above. If there’s a challenge to the points calculation, please post such and we will consider either uphold, clarify, or change our decisions.

Being part of the 4th cycle of the program presents a significant opportunity for our team, especially as a new, unfunded group.

Applicant summary–briefly explain why you’re interested in applying for this Delegate Reward Initiative:
Tané is formed with a group of crypto-native product builders, based in Tokyo, Dubai and New York. We are backed by SoftBank, and Japanese tech giants like DeNA, GREE, MIXI, and have great relationship with Japanese crypto communities.
We are applying for this initiative because we acknowledge the significance of the DeFi ecosystem, and we want to contribute to its growth and sustainability, particularly from a DAO governance perspective. Having already served as a delegate in Uniswap DAO, we aim to broaden our contributions within the community. Especially, we believe we can play an important role in the relationship between Uniswap DAO and Unichain. This is after the fact that we have been actively involved in the governance of Optimism Collective, including participation in the grants-related councils.

Applicant summary–briefly explain why you’re interested in applying for this Delegate Reward Initiative:
I’m a senior researcher at Chaos Labs, fascinated with the Uniswap protocol, professionally and academically involved with it since 2021. I have participated in Uniswap governance since July 2023, with near 100% voting rate, and have maintained active presence in the forum. My conflicts of interest are minimized, since neither I’m nor my employer is a service provider for the DAO or other major spot DEX protocols, nor I am professionally affiliated with DeFi protocols unrelated to Uniswap, which makes it fair to be compensated for my time spent on its governance activities here.
