- Uniswap has integrated Sony’s layer-2 blockchain Soneium to enhance trading and liquidity for digital entertainment assets.
- The move aims to simplify Web3 access for creators and fans while expanding Uniswap’s reach in the onchain economy.
Uniswap has officially integrated Sony’s cutting-edge layer-2 blockchain, Soneium, to enhance its decentralized trading ecosystem. This collaboration, announced on May 6, introduces a seamless bridge for users to trade, supply liquidity, and interact with the expanding Web3 universe through the Uniswap wallet and web app.
Soneium, developed by Sony Block Solutions and Startale Labs, debuted its mainnet in January 2025 with a mission to redefine digital entertainment on the blockchain. The network specializes in providing secure on-chain connections between creators and their fans, safeguarding intellectual property while boosting the reach of digital collectibles, NFTs, and even event ticketing. Soneium’s early success includes collaborations with the anime “Solo Leveling” and concert-related NFTs, demonstrating its potential in the entertainment sector.

Sony Block Solutions’ chairman, Jun Watanabe, emphasized the importance of Uniswap’s infrastructure in helping Soneium users access Web3 in a more intuitive way. By integrating with Uniswap, Soneium users will benefit from a streamlined experience when bridging assets and accessing liquidity across a vast, permissionless market.
Startale’s CEO, Sota Watanabe, highlighted the importance of this partnership, noting that Uniswap’s credibility and wide-reaching user base would offer Soneium users an unparalleled opportunity to participate in a thriving, creator-led economy.
This move aligns with Uniswap’s ongoing efforts to promote open markets and empower creators. The integration not only strengthens Uniswap’s position within the decentralized finance (DeFi) space but also supports its mission to provide decentralized trading tools for a broader audience, including fans and creators in the digital entertainment industry.
With Uniswap’s impressive growth, which includes the launch of its own layer-2 chain, Unichain, and a significant increase in total swap volume, this partnership is expected to propel both platforms toward greater global adoption. As Soneium paves the way for more immersive and decentralized content, Uniswap’s tools will continue to support the next generation of blockchain innovations.
In a rapidly evolving Web3 landscape, Uniswap’s integration with Soneium signals a new era for decentralized trading and entertainment, creating a bridge between technology and creativity like never before.
