1inch Network price

1INCH

#158

The 1inch Network was founded by Sergej Kunz and Anton Bukov over the course of the ETHGlobal New York hackathon in May 2019. The two had earlier met during a live stream of Kunz’s YouTube channel (CryptoManiacs) and began entering hackathons together, winning a prize at a hackathon in Singapore, as well as two major awards from the ETHGlobal.

Prior to 1inch, Sergej Kunz worked as a senior developer at product price aggregator Commerce Connector, coded at communication agency Herzog, led projects at Mimacom consultancy, and then worked full time at Porsche in both DevOps and cybersecurity.

Anton Bukov had worked in software development since 2002 and in decentralized finance (DeFi) since 2017. Among other projects, his resume features gDAI.io and NEAR Protocol.

In addition, to access to deepest liquidity from multiple sources across multiple blockchains, the 1inch Network offers users attractive prices and a high degree of security being the most audited project in DeFi.

In late 2022, the Fusion mode was introduced, which enables users to swap tokens without paying any network fees and at the most favorable rates. In addition, Fusion mode offers users extra MEV protection. All swaps in Fusion mode are executed by resolvers – professional traders, who use the most sophisticated and efficient ways of protecting users’ swaps from MEV.

1inch is non-custodial, and all trades take place within one transaction from a user’s wallet on any of the supported blockchains and layer-2 networks.

The technical structure of all 1inch protocols provides a high degree of security to users as well. For example, insecure liquidity sources can connect to the 1inch Aggregation Protocol without users risking the loss of funds. The protocol integrates security checks during every transaction to prevent any losses. As of July 2022, more than 240 liquidity sources are integrated into the 1inch Network.

1inch smart contracts got audited by leading audit teams in the industry such as OpenZeppelin, Consensys diligence, SlowMist, Haechi Labs, CoinFabrik, Certik, Hacken, Scott Bigelow, MixBytes, and Chainsulting.

After the 1INCH token was launched in late December 2020, all wallets that had interacted with the 1inch dApp through midnight on December 24 received 1INCH tokens if they met certain criteria. Liquidity providers for the 1inch Liquidity Protocol are also getting 1INCH tokens according to the 1inch Foundation’s various incentives and liquidity mining programs. 1INCH is available on multiple exchanges, including Binance, Huobi Global, Coinbase, Kraken, KuCoin and OKEx.
