A U.S. judge granted Uniswap’s motion to dismiss a patent infringement lawsuit brought by organizations connected to Bancor, delivering an early legal victory for the decentralized exchange [4][3][1].

The court dismissed the case without prejudice, giving the plaintiffs 21 days to amend their complaint before the dismissal becomes final [4][3].

The suit centered on claims related to a concentrated-pool automated market maker (CPAMM) patent; Uniswap and supporters characterized the decision as a significant win for the protocol and the wider decentralized finance industry, and Uniswap founder Hayden Adams commented on the development on X (formerly Twitter) [2][1].

With the dismissal entered without prejudice, plaintiffs retain the option to amend and refile within the court’s allotted period, leaving the legal dispute potentially unresolved for now [4].
