The transaction was spotted by on-chain analyst 余烬 and confirmed by Lookonchain, with the purchasing wallet previously linked to Hayes.
📈 The purchase size is much larger than before
This is not the first time Hayes has accumulated UNI. In November 2025, he bought 28,670 UNI, worth about $244,000.
The new purchase is about 7 times larger in value, suggesting his exposure to UNI has increased significantly.

Hayes buying via OTC rather than the open market also helps limit direct price impact. The market is now watching to see whether he will continue accumulating UNI in the near future.
