Hyperbridge Expands Polkadot DeFi Access with Uniswap V4 Integration
The next phase of the Polkadot DeFi Singularity unlocks DOT utility across major EVM chains [Zurich, Switzerland - July 17, 2025] - Following the successful launch of the Polkadot DeFi Singularity initiative, Hyperbridge is advancing its mission to deepen DOT's presence across leading DeFi ecosystems through a new partnership with Uniswap V4. As Polkadot's native bridge, Hyperbridge has now launched DOT/ETH liquidity incentives on Uniswap V4 using Bunni, a specialized frontend for managing concentrated liquidity. Incentives for the ETH/DOT pool are currently live and will run for three months (until September 21, 2025). These incentives are aimed at rewarding liquidity providers and increasing DOT's utility across the Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, and BNB ecosystems. As part of the broader DeFi Singularity roadmap, incentives for the vDOT/ETH pool-powered by Bifrost-will follow shortly, with a scheduled launch on July 24, 2025. This expansion will further strengthen DOT's presence on Uniswap V4 by supporting both native and liquid-staked forms of DOT. The partnership supports the broader goals of the DeFi Singularity campaign, a joint initiative by Hyperbridge and Bifrost, which secured 795,000 DOT in funding from the Polkadot Treasury to boost DOT accessibility on EVM-compatible chains. 'This integration with Uniswap V4 is a key step in making DOT a more versatile multichain asset,' said Seun Lanlege, Co-founder of Hyperbridge. 'We're using Uniswap V4's advanced infrastructure to bring DOT into deeper liquidity environments, and we're just getting started.'

Hyperbridge Becomes Polkadot's Native Bridge as DAO Backs DeFi Singularity Proposal
New initiative aims to improve DOT liquidity and accessibility across multiple ecosystems The Polkadot DAO has officially approved the Polkadot DeFi Singularity initiative, a landmark proposal designed to expand the accessibility of DOT and its derivatives across the multichain. With overwhelming community support, this initiative will enhance liquidity and interoperability, making it easier for developers and users to engage with Polkadot's DeFi ecosystem. As part of this decision, the DAO has selected Hyperbridge as its native bridge, reinforcing its commitment to seamless cross-chain connectivity. The proposal, which is a joint effort by Hyperbridge and Bifrost, seeks to address Polkadot's liquidity challenges by incentivizing DOT liquidity in external ecosystems. Historically, limited on-chain accessibility has restricted external users and liquidity from entering Polkadot efficiently, slowing its expansion relative to other blockchain networks. To counter this, the DAO has allocated 795,000 DOT from the Polkadot Treasury to launch a liquidity campaign. The campaign will distribute vDOT incentives to liquidity providers on key decentralized exchanges, focusing on DOT/ETH and vDOT/ETH pairs across Arbitrum, Base, BNB Chain, and Ethereum mainnet. By broadening DOT's presence in these ecosystems, the initiative aims to position DOT as a reserve asset, attract greater liquidity, and showcase Polkadot's interoperability across Web3. Seun Lanlege, Co-founder of Hyperbridge shared, 'This proposal lays the necessary groundwork for the $DOT asset to find greater utility in the multichain as well as the pathways for new users and developers into the Polkadot ecosystem.' This approval marks a strategic step forward in Polkadot's vision for a more interconnected and liquid ecosystem. With the Polkadot DeFi Singularity now set in motion, the stage is set for greater adoption, developer participation, and user engagement within the Polkadot network.
