In a landmark move for cross-chain DeFi, Enso has announced a strategic partnership with Stargate and LayerZero to deliver a one-click liquidity migration system that could shift up to $3.5 billion in Uniswap liquidity to Unichain. This frictionless migration tool is set to significantly streamline capital movement into Uniswap v4, deployed on the new Unichain network.
Historically, liquidity providers (LPs) seeking to move their capital into emerging ecosystems like Unichain faced multiple steps, including manual bridging, asset redeployment, and reconfiguration of LP tokens — each step increasing user risk, time, and gas costs.
This newly unveiled solution removes those barriers by enabling Uniswap v2 and v3 LPs on Ethereum and other EVM-compatible chains to bridge, migrate, and reallocate their liquidity to Unichain in a single transaction.
Breaking Down the Collaboration
- Enso is overseeing the DeFi logic and execution layer, handling the migration routing and automation.
- Stargate provides the cross-chain bridging infrastructure, ensuring secure and seamless asset movement.
- LayerZero powers the underlying messaging protocol, enabling reliable cross-chain communication and integrity.
This stack enables composable, atomic transactions — meaning a user can approve a migration and have it executed across chains without risk of partial failures.
One of the Largest Liquidity Migrations in Ethereum History
According to internal estimates, as much as $3.5 billion in liquidity currently locked in Uniswap v2 and v3 could potentially be redirected to Unichain — representing one of the most significant migrations of DeFi capital ever recorded.
“Through engineering a unified solution with the help of Stargate and LayerZero, Enso has added the missing piece to the puzzle,” said Enso Co-Founder Connor Howe. “With the ability to transfer their positions in one click, Uniswap LPs are about to trigger one of the largest liquidity migration events in Ethereum history.”
This is more than a migration feature — it’s a gateway to broader Unichain adoption, positioning the network as a next-gen DeFi powerhouse ready to compete with leading Layer 2s and sidechains.
Why It Matters
As DeFi infrastructure becomes more complex, ease of use and composability are emerging as defining advantages. Enso’s solution demonstrates the real-world power of composable DeFi, enabling chains, protocols, and tools to work together in a seamless, user-friendly way.
This unlocks not only massive liquidity potential but also a new standard for cross-chain UX, reducing onboarding friction for future protocols and Layer 2s.
The migration tool is expected to go live soon, with initial LP onboarding expected to roll out in phases. Uniswap v4 on Unichain could see deep liquidity inflows within days of launch, setting a new benchmark for protocol growth velocity.
