On-chain analytics firm Santiment reported the surge in activity shortly after the forecast was published. The data shows a broad-based jump across multiple network metrics, all pointing to renewed interest in the UNI token.

Active addresses on the Uniswap network climbed to a four-month high. At the same time, whale transactions — large transfers typically linked to institutional-sized investors — reached a seven-month peak.

New wallet creation also spiked. Santiment recorded the largest single-day increase in new UNI addresses since late December, adding another layer to the activity surge.

According to Santiment, the driver behind all of this is the Standard Chartered forecast itself, not any internal protocol change or upgrade.

Whale Accumulation Hits Multi-Month Highs

Crypto analyst Zayn, who goes by @Zaynnode on X, posted that he bought a $10,000 spot position in UNI. He pointed out that UNI had just erased a full month of bearish price action in just a few days. Zayn noted that UNI is trading near the same price zone that preceded its major 2020 bull run, and said he is accumulating spot and letting the market do the work.

Large investors moving in before broader market momentum is a pattern traders watch closely. The seven-month high in whale transactions suggests major holders are positioning ahead of any potential price move.

Standard Chartered’s $100 target represents a large implied upside from current prices. The bank’s forecast has drawn attention back to Uniswap’s position as one of the leading decentralized exchanges in the market.

UNI Price Approaching Key Resistance

On the price chart, UNI has been trading inside a descending channel for months — a pattern of lower highs and lower lows. Recent buying pressure has pushed the token toward the upper resistance trendline of that channel, near $3.30.

Previous rallies have stalled at this level. A break above it would mark the first meaningful shift in market structure in 2026.

The next upside target sits at $4.13, a key resistance level on the daily chart. If momentum continues, traders are watching $6.34 as the level after that. On the downside, support sits in the $2.80–$2.90 range.

Santiment’s data shows that UNI network activity is now at multi-month highs, driven entirely by Standard Chartered’s price forecast.
