Maia DAO has launched a community deployment of Uniswap v3 – branded uniMaia, a “Maia Community AMM” – on the Metis Layer 2 network, bringing concentrated-liquidity market making to the Metis DeFi ecosystem. This deployment uses Uniswap v3’s built‑in protocol fee switch, with fees routed to the Maia DAO Treasury and distributed across the Maia/Hermes ecosystem, positioning uniMaia as the main v3-style DEX and liquidity layer on Metis. Metis has supported the rollout with an incentives program, committing $70,000 in METIS rewards to liquidity providers in core pools such as METIS–USDC and ETH–USDC on Maia’s Uniswap v3 deployment. In practical terms, uniMaia gives traders and liquidity providers on Metis access to concentrated liquidity, allowing LPs to supply capital within custom price ranges for more efficient use of liquidity and potentially higher fee earnings. According to community and ecosystem write‑ups, Maia DAO’s v3 deployment is among the first full Uniswap v3-style concentrated-liquidity DEXs native to Metis, differentiating it from earlier Metis DEXs and adding a new revenue layer for Maia’s veHERMES and sMAIA holders via protocol fees shared between token holders and the treasury. For Metis, the launch strengthens its position as an EVM-equivalent, low-cost rollup with a growing set of DeFi “majors,” while for Maia DAO it reinforces its role as a central liquidity and governance hub on the network, integrating trading, incentives, and treasury accrual into a single community-run stack.
