# Uniswap (UNI) Quantum Readiness Report

> Uniswap has a QRI score of 6.5/100 and is assessed at Stage 1 (Quantum Risk Assessed) with medium evidence confidence.

Evaluation date: 2026-06-06. Review status: draft. Evaluated scope: UNI ERC-20 governance token, Uniswap DAO treasury multisigs, governance contracts, and Unichain L2 staking dependencies on Ethereum mainnet as of 2026-06-06. Standard ERC-20 token transfers inherit Ethereum L1 QRI score per QRI Token Inheritance rule (Section 7.2). Token-specific admin/governance keys and treasury multisigs are evaluated separately..

Uniswap (UNI) is a standard ERC-20 governance token on Ethereum. Per QRI Token Inheritance rules (Section 7.2), UNI inherits Ethereum L1's quantum-readiness posture for base-layer token transfers — Ethereum has no production PQC protection as of 2026-06-06 and is rated QRI ~25/100 (Stage 2: Mitigation/Development) with a structured roadmap targeting ~2029 for core PQ infrastructure. Token-specific evaluation reveals critical quantum vulnerabilities: the Uniswap governance DAO and treasury multisigs (~$3B+ in protocol-controlled assets) rely exclusively on ECDSA keys, exposing them to quantum key-recovery attacks. The Unichain L2 Validation Network adds further quantum-vulnerable dependencies through Ethereum-based UNI staking. On the positive side, Uniswap V3 Core contracts are immutable (limiting what a compromised governance can modify), and ERC-1271 support allows users with PQ smart-contract wallets to interact with the protocol. However, Uniswap itself has published no quantum risk assessment, no cryptographic inventory, no PQC migration roadmap, and no quantum-specific incident response process. The overall QRI Score of 7 reflects near-total absence of quantum readiness, with third-party evidence of quantum risk being the only credit earned.
