Uniswap (UNI) fell below the $10 mark after maintaining levels above it for most of August. This month diverged from traditional bearish cycles, offering a glimmer of hope for DeFi investors. Traders anticipate that September could deliver the dip that precedes potential Q4 rallies, creating an intriguing setup for UNI holders.
Whales Are Leading the Charge
OnchainLens data shows that whales have returned after a period of profit-taking. A significant purchase of 153,975 UNI worth $1.5 million on CoW Protocol highlights renewed interest. The same whales also acquired Maker (MKR) and Spark (SPK) before moving these funds to provide liquidity. Exchange Netflow data reinforces this narrative, with 55K UNI withdrawn from exchanges—18K more than the previous day. Rising outflows generally indicate accumulation, suggesting that whales are preparing for a bullish phase.
A whale has spent $2.3M $USDC to buy:

UNI Eyes Key Reversal Zones
Technical analysis points to a crucial accumulation zone around $8.74, previously the launchpad for a 40% rally. While UNI briefly surpassed $11, it faced immediate rejection at $12.25, marking a false breakout. Current trading ranges between $8.74 and $9.74 could serve as optimal buying zones. If UNI dips below $8.74, the setup risks invalidation. Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) trends upward, signaling continued capital inflow, but further confirmations are needed to solidify the reversal.

Volume Surges With Layer-2 Growth
Ethereum Layer 2 platforms, including Unichain, Arbitrum, and Base, have surpassed $50 billion in volume. Unichain Labs’ collaboration with Wormhole aims to enhance interoperability, enabling simpler multichain token swaps. Such developments could indirectly benefit UNI by improving DeFi liquidity and adoption.
While Uniswap’s dip below $10 may alarm some investors, whale activity and strategic accumulation zones point toward a potential bullish reversal. With Layer-2 growth supporting DeFi adoption, UNI holders are closely watching September’s price action for a possible Q4 surge.
