No noise, pure efficiency: 1”

The largest IPO of all time. @xStocksFi brings SPCXx on-chain. Tokenized the same day it hits the NASDAQ. A historic moment for DeFi. Now swappable on 1inch. Tokenization 24/7.

DeFi has spent years promising broader access to financial markets. Today's SpaceX IPO is the perfect opportunity to turn that promise into reality and show how tokenized markets can open participation to more people than ever before. Building the infrastructure that makes it possible is exactly why @1inch exists.

Developer protections are essential for any workable crypto market structure bill. That is why, today, I joined over 60 CEOs and founders in signing a letter to Senate leaders, urging them to pass the Clarity Act with robust protections for developers.

As DeFi enters a new era, it's important to preserve the stories, lessons, successes, and failures that got us here. That's why I'm excited to announce reDeFine Money, a book led by @1inch that features the founders and builders who helped create the DeFi ecosystem we know today. After all, the best way to understand where we're going is to understand how we got here.

Loving the hype around intents lately. But let’s not fall for recency bias. 1inch intent-based swap architecture (Fusion) launched back in 2022. It just passed $71B in volume on 13 chains - and $5B in tokenized RWAs. In crypto, newer doesn’t always mean better. Product diversity is great. So is proven infrastructure.

$5B is a milestone worth celebrating, but it’s just a drop in the ocean compared to what’s ahead. The 1inch infrastructure is prepared for trillions in RWA volume, and we expect to reach that scale sooner rather than later.

Thinking of Nate's family, loved ones and the entire Ondo team during this difficult time. Nate's role in creating fairer and more accessible financial markets cannot be understated. What he built will shape the future of this industry for years to come.

DeFi 🤝 Tokenization The future is onchain.

On 1inch's 7th birthday, I am able to take a moment to reflect and be proud of everything we have achieved as a team. Seven years ago, 1inch was created with the goal of making DeFi more efficient, more secure, and putting the user first. During this time, we have made our mark on DeFi, introducing many innovations that have now become central to our industry. This includes the creation of DEX aggregation back in 2019, the intent-based approach to cross-chain swaps, and one of the most extensive suites of APIs, now used by the biggest names in crypto, including Coinbase, OKX, Binance, MetaMask, Ledger, and more. Thinking back to our launch, DeFi was a niche concept. However, it is now about to become a key part of the global finance. As an industry, we are set to experience significant transformation, and only those that adapt while maintaining their core identity will survive. 1inch is perfectly positioned for this future. Finally, I would like to say thank you to everyone who supported us over the years, both inside and outside of 1inch. This is just the beginning. It's time for the next chapter. Watch this space.

Over the last 24 hours, @1inch has been flooded with misleading posts all stemming from one clickbait mention. With a basic understanding of the TrustedVolumes exploit and how 1inch is architected, most of this confusion could have been avoided. Our architecture makes it technically impossible for a TrustedVolumes vulnerability to affect 1inch users. Atomic swaps do not share custodial infrastructure. There is nothing to bridge across. But what matters here goes beyond one correction. Information moves fast in this industry. Someone reads a post-mortem in passing, reposts it with their own framing, and within hours thousands of people have formed an opinion — including users who are still deciding whether this space is safe to participate in. Established protocols like 1inch can usually absorb that kind of misinformation. Smaller or newer projects often cannot. Before attaching a project to an exploit, understand the architecture behind it. If you're unsure, ask. The consequences of getting it wrong fall on teams and communities that had nothing to do with the incident. We need both speed and accuracy. DeFi projects face enough threats right now, without needing to fear fake ones.

The news surrounding the TrustedVolumes exploit is misleading. So, let me also clarify: neither 1inch nor any of its protocols have been exploited, compromised or affected in any way. There is no risk to our systems, infrastructure or user funds. TrustedVolumes is a liquidity provider used by 1inch, as well as by many others from across the industry. They do not exclusively serve 1inch and provide the same service to multiple protocols. The way this has been reported by many 'sources' on Twitter, as well as by some media outlets, I can only assume is designed to generate clicks and engagement. While it is true that 1inch uses TrustedVolumes as a resolver, we are one of many. The framing of this story is ultimately confusing and harmful. The reputational damage from this is now difficult to reverse, as it is always harder to correct a false narrative than it is to create one. However, we remain one of the most highly audited protocols and we continue to hold ourselves to the highest standards of security. Whilst it is sad that one misleading mention potentially impacts this, we know in the longer-term, the truth and efforts made by our team will prevail. We continue to monitor the situation closely along with our security partners, will assist where appropriate and we will look to correct all those who make unfactual statements on the matter.

💪 @1inch

Interviews with @gazza_jenks are always a must-watch, so I was glad to join him during PBW. We covered everything from Ethereum’s direction and AI agents to @1inch Aqua and our plans to revolutionise the liquidity space. Plenty of insight and alpha in this one.

Quite the week for @1inch We passed $800B in volume, crossed $4B in total RWA volume, worked with @0xfluid on a route to free over $100M in trapped Aave WETH, co-hosted a NYC brunch with @Ledger for student blockchain club presidents, and signed US policy letters from @BlockchainAssn and @fund_defi. From late night shipping to the next billion routed - DeFi does not sleep.

Seeing the 0x team pushing more simulated data on the feed. Without context, of course. Firstly, let’s be clear about over-quote: 1inch uses a bunch of different swap execution models, so direct 1:1 comparisons can be misleading. With our intent-based model, which more and more agents are accessing, users define their desired outcome. They don't just take a fixed point-in-time quote. And simulated data ≠ actual execution: It depends on assumptions (routing, timing)It ignores protections and execution dynamics We’ve looked into some of the simulated data floating around before, when they were talking about revert rates. The figure for actual transactions was 3.8% - much, much lower than simulation. Happy to share methodology. I guess we will again have to get our analytics team going on reviewing this dataset. We are not perfect, but presenting simulations without context and leaving out certain data points (don't worry we will share soon) feels more combative than constructive. Happy to compare properly, like-for-like.

This is what DeFi is supposed to be. We move fast, we leave no one behind and we build for everyone.

I am proud that what we built helped $100M escape, but let this moment serve as a reminder: In DeFi, there is no price or yield worth your freedom. P.S. For those still stuck, help is coming. Arbitrum is coming soon!
