The number of new addresses created on the Uniswap network has shown a decline since reaching a high point on June 10. Specifically, there has been a 66% drop in new wallet addresses between June 10 and June 19, going from 733 to 440.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\">\n    <figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Uniswap Price Drop, June 2023 \u2013 <strong>Network Growth.<\/strong> Source: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/studio.glassnode.com\/metrics?a=UNI&amp;category=&amp;m=addresses.NewNonZeroCount&amp;s=1686187286&amp;u=1686873600&amp;zoom=\">Glassnode<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The decline in network growth, which measures the rate at which new users join the blockchain network by counting the number of new wallet addresses created daily, often has a negative impact on the price.

Between June 5 and June 7, when the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced its lawsuit against Binance and Coinbase, UNI transaction volume experienced a sharp increase of 900%. However, the transaction volume has since dropped by 1,200%, going from $79.4 million to $5.93 million as of June 18.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\">\n    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bitrabo.com\/community\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/1687196356_102_Uniswap-UNI-Price-Drops-3-Amid-Decline-in-Network-Traction.png\" alt=\"Uniswap Price Drop, June 2023 -Transaction Volume\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Uniswap Price Drop, June 2023 \u2013<strong>Transaction Volume.<\/strong> Source: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/embed.santiment.net\/chart?ps=uniswap&amp;pt=UNI&amp;df=2023-06-03T00%3A00%3A00.000Z&amp;dt=2023-06-19T00%3A00%3A00.000Z&amp;emcg=1&amp;wm=price_usd%3Btransaction_volume_usd&amp;wax=0%3B1&amp;wc=%2326C953%3B%23FFCB47&amp;ws=%7B%22interval%22%3A%221d%22%7D%3B\">Santiment<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The transaction volume metric evaluates the dollar value of daily confirmed transactions involving a specific cryptocurrency asset, and it usually correlates with the price.
