Uniswap Labs has officially launched its wallet browser extension for Google Chrome after a wait of over six months, during which more than 793,000 users joined the waitlist.
This new tool allows Uniswap wallet users to perform on-chain activities, such as token swaps, across 11 different networks, including Ethereum, Polygon, and Arbitrum.
This move expands Uniswap’s offerings, which already include the leading decentralized exchange with $2.4 billion in daily trading volume and $5.6 billion in total value locked.
