Uniswap Labs Shake-Up: President Mary-Catherine Lader Exits After 4 Years of DeFi Dominance
Uniswap Labs Shake-Up: President Mary-Catherine Lader Exits After 4 Years of DeFi Dominance

DeFi's favorite DEX just got a leadership curveball.
Uniswap Labs President Mary-Catherine Lader—the woman who helped steer crypto's most liquid protocol through its 2021 megaboom and 2022 nuclear winter—is stepping down. No fluffy "pursuing new opportunities" corporate speak here. Just a clean break after four years of building the plumbing for decentralized finance.
The timing? Suspiciously poetic. Just as Uniswap’s governance token UNI flirts with yearly highs, the captain abandons ship. (Wall Street bankers would’ve at least waited for the bonus check.)
Who fills the power vacuum? Unclear. But one thing’s certain: in DeFi, even the most entrenched leaders are as permanent as a memecoin’s market cap.
