Uniswap\u2019s UNI Token Stabilizes Following Harsh Selloff from $8.40 Highs At the time of writing, UNI is trading up 3% at its current price of $6.69, which marks a slight rebound from its recent lows of $6.00 that were set just after witnessing the inflows of selling pressure that caused it to plunge from highs of $8.00. The intensity of this decline certainly struck a blow to its technical outlook, but analysts are noting that the likelihood it seeing further upside is beginning to grow. One factor signaling that there is room for a push higher is the negative funding rates seen on the Uniswap token\u2019s perpetual swaps, which are making it costly for investors to be short on the crypto.
