⚠️ Btw, The DeFi Racer Tournament #2 has already started. Don’t miss your chance!

🖖 Hey 1inchers! 🎊 2021 was immensely successful for us as we hit a huge amount of substantial milestones.

📊 Now that we’ve entered 2022, let’s have a look at where the crypto space stands, what 1inch achieved, what lies ahead for us and what we hope for in the New Year.

🚀 Truly, last year was a turning point for the industry as it expanded massively, reaching out to millions of new users.

👀 We saw immense growth in L2s, NFTs, GameFi and DAOs, while the crypto space’s value hit over $2T and the likes of Ethereum and Bitcoin hit ATHs.

🦄👊 1inch expanded to 4 new networks and integrated more than 120 decentralized exchange protocols, opening access to the biggest liquidity in DeFi, with more than $55B+ available.

🏆 That led us to hitting $134B in volume and 1M in the number of wallets that interact with our contract on Ethereum, 430K on BSC and 200k+ users in Polygon and an almost 60 percent share of the aggregation segment.

👥 Plus, over 800k community members and followers!

🥳 Moreover, in 2021, we released the 1inch Wallet, introduced DAO governance and treasury, launched the 1inch Limit Order Protocol and the Aggregation Protocol v3 & v4 and, finally, closed our 💸 Series B round.

🤝 We participated in more than 50 events, did more than 45 talks and workshops, providing our knowledge, expertise and funding to the community under the 1inch Foundation Grant program. A total of 11 projects obtained grants last year.

💸 Our $10M $1INCH gas refund program gained momentum, with refunds amounting to ~25% of all 1inch transactions distributed to users to date as refunds

🙏 We want to thank everyone who supported us and participated in this marvelous ride and encourage the brightest minds to join over 80 core contributors who are working on the best product in DeFi and crypto.

📢 Calling upon all brave liquidity providers 📢

💸 We’re excited to release 1inch Earn, a new investment product offering attractive APYs.

🦄⛏ So grab your pickaxes and prepare to go down to a dungeon of extra earnings!

💡 The concept of 1inch Earn – previously referred to as Trading Strategies – was for the first time introduced in the 1inch Network Treasury proposal in September 2021.

🤔 So what is it actually?

🌊 Basically, 1inch Earn is a set of liquidity pools operating on a model similar to UniswapV3 range orders and optimized for stablecoins. 💵 Earnings come from fees on swap trades in the pool.

⏱ At the time of launch users’ earnings from 1inch Earn are estimated to be in the range of 5-10% APY and, in future, profitability will depend on market conditions.

🔁 Swaps in the pool will be done by arbitrage traders, algorithmic trade bots and individual 1inch users.

🧠 The idea behind 1inch Earn is the more efficient use of capital in AMM-based pools.

💧 In a standard pool, all liquidity is distributed equally along the entire price range between zero and infinity. As a result, most of the liquidity is never used.

💰 So, 1inch Earn enables liquidity providers to concentrate their assets to smaller price intervals than between 0 and infinity.

✅ This enables traders to get deeper mid-price liquidity for swaps, and liquidity providers earn more fees.

➕ 1inch Earn uses slight movements in stables' prices to facilitate extra swaps and, consequently, bring additional earnings for liquidity providers.

🚀 At this point, the first pool has been launched on the Ethereum network, featuring the USDC/USDT pair.

🦾 In future, more pools will be added, including those featuring tokens other than stables.

➡️ Learn more: https://blog.1inch.io/1inch-launches-earn-6498908a60eb

🌐 1inch Earn is viewed as fully open-source and available for various integrations.
