DeFi has provided liquidity one way for years: deposit tokens into a pool and lock them there.Aqua launched on July 28 with a different model. Tokens stay in provider wallets, one balance backs several positions at once and funds move only when a swap fills.Getting an industry to change a habit like that is slow work. The numbers say it is happening: $3B in total volume in eight weeks.Every number is public and updates live on Dune: https://dune.com/1inch/aqua-public1inch

Watch four tokens loop: SPCXon → WBTC → USDT → USDC and back around.No direct pair between any two of them. On Aqua the router threads a swap through the whole liquidity map and picks the best route, so a tokenized stock can reach a stablecoin through positions nobody opened for that pair.That is the point of shared liquidity: one balance in your wallet backs routes you did not plan.Provide liquidity: https://1inch.com/aqua1inch

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.

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.

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,1inchBlockchain fees fall as on-chain activity grows | 1inch BlogBlockchain activity is rising while transaction fees fall, making high-volume on-chain apps more practical for developers to build.1inch

🦄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 the1inchHow to create an RWA limit order on 1inch | 1inch BlogLearn how to set a limit order for supported tokenized assets on 1inch, choose your target price and manage RWA liquidity and eligibility.1inch

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.

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 halfHackenProof1inch Aqua H1 2026 Bug Bounty Report | HackenProofDiscover what 217 security researchers uncovered in 1inch Aqua during H1 2026, including 9 paid findings and key smart contract vulnerabilities.1inch

😇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,1inchProvide Liquidity on 1inch Aqua | Shared Liquidity AMMProvide liquidity on 1inch Aqua, the shared liquidity AMM.

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.Blog | X | YouTube | 1inch Wallet | Help Center1inch

"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.Blog | X | YouTube | 1inch Wallet | Help Center
