The increase happened shortly after the Uniswap Foundation (UF) proposed the creation of a fee mechanism that rewards UNI holders who have staked and delegated their tokens.

This proposal seeks to invigorate and strengthen Uniswaps governance system by incentivizing active, engaged, and thoughtful delegation, the team added.

The proposal also states that if there are no major blockers, the Snapshot vote will be posted on March 1st, 2024, while the on-chain vote will be posted on March 8th.
