You can now provide liquidity for tokenized stocks on Aqua.

Pick USDG on Robinhood chain, pair it with tokenized Apple and set up a position straight from your wallet. No pool deposits, no lockup: tokens stay with you, one balance can back several positions and funds move only when a swap fills.

Robinhood chain is already the largest Aqua venue by shared liquidity.

Available in eligible regions only: not in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, Singapore, Switzerland and other restricted jurisdictions. Not financial advice.

Reserve DTFs are now tradable on 1inch.

Five funds, live on BNB Chain: PHOTON, BUILDOUT, ROBOTS, POWER and NEOCLOUD. Each one is a single ERC-20 backed by a basket of Ondo Global Markets tokenized US stocks. One swap buys the whole basket, and it stays in your wallet.

Reserve is the first DTF issuer on 1inch, adding diversified token portfolios to the tokenized equities, treasuries and credit products already available.

Find them in the 1inch dApp and Wallet. Builders can plug them in through the Swap API.

1️⃣ 1inch is live on Arc.

Swap in the 1inch dApp and 1inch Wallet, provide liquidity through 1inch Aqua. Builders get every 1inch API from day one.

It's Circle's new Layer 1 built for stablecoin finance. You pay gas in USDC and don't need a separate volatile token for fees. Finality is deterministic and sub-second, and the chain is fully EVM-compatible. Built for stablecoin payments, on-chain FX and tokenized markets.

Getting in takes one cross-chain swap, no bridge, self-custodial end to end. Once you're there, intent-based swaps run with MEV protection and no gas fees.

First move: a swap in the dApp or liquidity through Aqua?

Explore it on 1inch: https://1inch.com/

1️⃣ Tokens stay in your wallet after you open an Aqua position. They move only when a swap actually fills against your liquidity. So who is on the other side?

You are the maker and the party filling the swap is the taker. Right now takers are verified 1inch resolvers: independent professional market makers that have passed the 1inch onboarding and verification process. 1inch Pathfinder discovers Aqua liquidity off-chain and can route swaps against it.

The fill itself is atomic. Aqua's SwapVM pulls the relevant token from your wallet and pushes the incoming token back in the same transaction. Either the whole swap goes through or nothing does. The maker side stays permissionless while taker access is gated at launch: an on-chain credential proves to the Aqua contracts that a fill comes from an authorized taker. The staged approach lets execution quality and accountability get established while shared liquidity matures.

When you decide where to provide liquidity, what weighs more: how a fill settles or who is allowed to fill it?

1️⃣ Tokenized gold and FX have landed on 1inch.

Tenbin Labs tokens are live on Ethereum and tradable on 1inch: Tenbin Gold (tGLD), Tenbin Brazilian Real (tBRL) and Tenbin Mexican Peso (tMXN). The first tokenized commodities and FX in the 1inch real-world asset lineup, next to the tokenized stocks, treasuries and credit already there.

How it works: quotes come over RFQ from the markets where these assets already trade, so spreads stay tight without AMM slippage. Tenbin mints and redeems in one Ethereum block, so a resolver can mint just in time to fill your intent-based swap.

You trade from your own wallet, self-custody throughout.

1inch Aqua is past $1B in total volume.

Launch was July 28, six weeks ago.

The shared liquidity model behind the number: tokens sit in provider wallets, one balance can back several positions at once and funds move only when a swap fills. No pool deposits at any point.

Every number is public and updates live on Dune: https://dune.com/1inch/aqua-public

The reward cap for tokenized stock purchases just doubled: $50 per wallet instead of $25, covering qualifying purchases you already made.

Apple holds its flagship event today. AAPLc trades on 1inch around the clock, routed through Base liquidity, and rewards run at 5% of qualifying purchase value, paid in USDC.

How it works: buy AAPLc, GOOGLc, METAc or NVDAc on Base through the 1inch dApp or 1inch Wallet and hold through the end of the current epoch. The campaign runs eight weeks from August 26 in two-week epochs. 1inch Network contributed the funding. Merkl calculates and distributes rewards, claiming happens in the Merkl app. Purchases through other interfaces or APIs do not qualify.

Full rules and the fine print: https://1inch.com/blog/post/coinbase-tokenized-stocks

Available in eligible regions only: not in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, Singapore, Switzerland and other restricted jurisdictions. Rewards are not guaranteed. Nothing here is financial advice or a solicitation or inducement to buy or sell any security.

😇 1inch is live on Monad.

Everything shipped at once: the dApp, 1inch Wallet, 1inch Aqua and every 1inch API.

Monad itself runs 300ms blocks with 600ms finality and fees at fractions of a cent. 1inch adds the rest: you pay no gas on intent-based swaps and MEV protection works by default. Cross-chain swaps take you onto Monad without a bridge, custody stays with you the whole way. Native USDC is live via Circle CCTP.

First move on the new chain: a gasless swap or a cross-chain route in?

The blog has the full list of what's live and how the routing works:

1️⃣ Ethereum fees fell from $1.08 to $0.31 per transaction in a year while activity grew 68%. Busier and cheaper at the same time: that combination used to be a trade-off.

For years more usage meant congestion. Competition for blockspace pushed fees higher, and apps with frequent transactions became too expensive to use. Now networks are deliberately making blockspace cheaper and more abundant: Ethereum raised its gas limit and went from about 15 to 26 transactions per second on mainnet, Solana processed 9.8 bln transactions last quarter at half a cent each.

Cheap blockspace changes what gets built. Perp DEXs, which live on constant orders and liquidations, grew 346% in 2025. Games, payments and automated agents follow the same logic: when every action costs cents, developers design around users instead of designing around fees.

Tanner Moore, Developer Relations Engineer at 1inch, reads it as a builder signal: the teams working on these networks now will be positioned best when markets recover.

The full breakdown with all the numbers and what they mean for builders: https://1inch.com/blog/post/blockchains-get-busier-and-cheaper

Which would you rather see land on cheap blockspace first: fully onchain games or agent-driven trading?

🦄You can set the price you want for a tokenized stock and let the order wait. 1inch limit orders work for supported RWAs the same way they work for other tokens, and the new blog post walks through it.

The useful part for RWAs: the token trades onchain around the clock, the market it tracks closes every evening. Prices drift outside trading hours. Instead of watching the chart, you set a target rate and an expiry. If the market reaches your rate before expiry, the order can fill. If not, it expires. Your tokens stay in your wallet the whole time, though the o rder does not reserve them, so spending them means the order may not fill.

Three checks before you place one: eligibility (issuer terms and geo restrictions apply), liquidity (thinner books, partial fills are possible) and what the token actually represents (a tokenized stock is not the underlying share, rights depend on the issuer).

Would you rather trade tokenized stocks only when the underlying market is open, or does the 24/7 window change how you set your prices?

1️⃣Your tokens can provide liquidity without leaving your wallet. That is the core idea of self-custodial LPing in 1inch Aqua, and a new blog post explains how it works.

In a classic pool you deposit first and withdraw later. In Aqua a position quotes against the balance sitting in your wallet. You grant a revocable allowance that sets a ceiling, the wallet balance stays the real limit and tokens move only in the transaction where a swap fills. If the balance is short at that moment, the swap simply does not fill. Revoke the allowance and no new swaps can use that token.

The same balance can back several positions at once, without being split into separate deposits. Nothing is borrowed on top of what the wallet holds.

What stays the same: impermanent loss, smart-contract risk and no guarantee of fees or trading activity. Custody and market exposure are different risks, and Aqua changes only the first one.

Which matters more to you when you choose where to provide liquidity: fee levels or who holds your tokens in between?

Full breakdown, including what happens at the moment a swap fills:

1️⃣ Aqua just crossed $500M in swap volume 🌊

Every swap behind that number was filled straight from LPs' wallets: the tokens stayed there until the moment each swap filled. No deposits at any step. That's the shared liquidity model working at scale.

1️⃣A Dutch auction that never dropped its price. Two separate researchers found it, from two separate angles, while Aqua was still pre-launch – and it is the clearest example of what a bug bounty is for.

Dutch auctions on Aqua start high and decay until a taker fills the order. Except the decay never ran. Xmanuel found that the decay factor was declared as a uint32, a number type too small for the 18-decimal precision the formula expected. The value was silently truncated and every decay curve came out flat. Bz went deeper and found that both balance instructions behind the auctions were non-functional. Makers who thought their orders were pricing themselves down over time were actually posting static limit orders, exposed for their whole lifetime to takers with better information. Both reports were paid as separate findings.

The only High of the half was sharper. Z3rco showed that MakerTraits hook flags are encoded one way and interpreted another during execution. A taker who crafted the encoding carefully could redirect maker funds inside a normal-looking swap. The report came with a working proof of concept. It was paid and resolved, and the fix is linked in the report.

None of this waited for launch. The bounty opened while Aqua was pre-launch: between January and June, 217 researchers filed 472 reports. Nine findings were paid and resolved: one High, one Medium, seven Low. Eight are broken down publicly, each with its commit.

Aqua is audited by eight independent teams including OpenZeppelin, Hexens and Decurity. The bounty runs on top of the audits, for what they might miss.

The full report walks through all eight public findings: https://hackenproof.com/blog/1inch-bug-bounty-report-h1-2026

The program is still open and critical findings pay up to $100,000: https://hackenproof.com/programs/1inch-aqua

😇Unlimited approval: that's what the dApp sets today when you approve a token for Aqua, the shared liquidity layer. Fair question: does it actually need to be that big?

It doesn't. Aqua works with any allowance. Fills spend it as they execute; if it covers less than your position size, the uncovered part doesn't trade.

An approval authorizes; it doesn't move funds. Tokens sit in your wallet and leave only when a swap fills against one of your positions.

One mechanic to know: if an open position needed more than your wallet held, tokens you add later can be used to fill it too. Keep that in mind when topping up a wallet with open positions.

Two ways to revoke: in the dApp when you close a position, or anytime through revoke.cash. That's also the place to check your approvals.

Aqua has been audited by eight independent teams including OpenZeppelin, Hexens and Decurity, but it's new. Smart-contract risk remains.

Your open positions are in the dApp: http://1inch.com/aqua

1inch pinned a video

Pooled AMMs share one fee pot. A bot can front-run a big swap by a block, grab the liquidity for that moment and skim fees off the LPs already sitting there. Up to 44% of LP fees, gone.

1inch Aqua is JIT protected by design. One owner per position, nothing external slips in, no shared fee to snipe.

"I got sandwiched by providing liquidity."

1inch co-founder Sergej Kunz shares his own LP story: a Uniswap position, a price-impact setting left too high and a bot that jumped in before every big trade to catch the fees.

Pooled AMMs share one fee pot, and that is what makes the move possible. On 1inch Aqua each position has a single owner and no shared pot, so there is nothing to slip into.

57 seconds on where LP fees actually go.
