They also agree on the 128% increase in 24-hour trading volume to approximately $226 million.

The 
Optimism (OP) token experienced a significant price increase of nearly 20% after 
Uniswap announced that Unichain will integrate its production operations with OP Enterprise. This announcement triggered a surge in trading activity, with the token's 24-hour trading volume rising by 128% to approximately $226 million.
Despite the broader crypto market remaining relatively flat, OP managed to sustain its gains, closing the day with a double-digit percentage increase. This rally comes amid a 13.6% week-over-week rise in Optimism's Total Value Locked (TVL), which now stands at $840.08 million according to DeFiLlama.
The integration with Unichain marks a notable step in Optimism's enterprise adoption strategy. Uniswap's TVL, currently at $3.93 billion, experienced a slight 2.7% decline over the past week, indicating that the market's attention is increasingly focused on Optimism's scaling solutions.
While the token's recent performance is impressive, with a 30-day gain of 64%, it is still significantly below its year-ago price and all-time high. The token is currently trading about 68% below its price from a year ago and 97% below its all-time high, as reported by CryptoPotato.

The chart plots UNI's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from Token Times's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 UNI ≈ ₹752.52 (about $7.27), down 1.3% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 8.6% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
