    📌Conclusion

    • Liquidity providers in Uniswap had definitely decreased their positions before the merge and increased it after the merge, reason of this could be the fear of losing their funds during the merge.

    • From September 6 to - September 14 number of users decreasing their liquidity was majority, after the merge users started to increase their liquidity.

    • On the Top 2 ETH pools of Uniswap, we saw a decrease in locked ETH especialy in USDC-ETH Pool, during the merge ( September 15 ) TVL reached local bottom in this two pool and after the September 15 we saw a increase in the locked ETH, this shows us successful merge affected the trust of liquidity providers in a positive way and users put their ETH in liquidity pools after withdrawing it.
