Gas Leaves Just 18% of Small Uniswap v3 Positions Beating Holding

Only 18% of small Uniswap v3 liquidity positions beat holding after Ethereum gas over a year, showing how gas narrowed relative returns for providers with deposits below $1,000. For closed regular positions with deposits under $1,000, 18% outperformed holding after gas, down from 51% before gas. Median gas for that group was 67 cents. The measure compares the value of tokens returned plus collected fees with the value of the original deposit tokens at exit, then deducts gas. Data cover about 121,000 positions from roughly 17,400 wallets across eight Ethereum Uniswap v3 pools selected because they had the most new positions in mid-2026. The observation period ran from Oct. 14, 2025, through Oct. 13, 2026.
