Step 2: Selecting Tokens

Select a coin available in your wallet and select the coin you want to swap to. You can sort between the maximum returns and lowest gas fee using the pathfinder algorithm.

The pathfinder algorithm selects the best routes for the swap utilizing multiple DEX’s. The multiple liquidity pools provide you the best rate when you pick the maximum return. Similarly, when selecting the lowest gas cost the pathfinder ensures gas fees are minimized.

Step 3: Advanced Settings (Optional)

On the exchange section of the 1inch swap, select the settings button at the top right. When the settings open, there are several options here; activating the chi button enables the use of CHI gas tokens. CHI tokens reduce the fee cost by 43%, but you’ll need a minimum balance of 5 CHI for this to work.

Also, there’s a comparison table that shows a routing chart, auto-fill options, and you adjust slippage tolerance. These settings allow users to take full control of their decentralized token swaps.

Step 4: Approving and Swapping 

After selecting desired options such as swap routes and fee payments, users must “unlock their tokens” This step approves the 1inch smart contracts, allowing the swap function to be performed. Once approved, a swap tokens selection will appear where the “Unlock Token” button was initially. Select the “Swap Token” button to then confirm and complete the transaction.

Concluding Thoughts

1inch is the leading DEX aggregator on the BSC and Ethereum networks. This aggregator boasts the highest number of transactions because of its unique pathfinder algorithm and its CHI token system. The cross-chain bridge is a gamechanger on the Binance Smart Chain network, allowing users to efficiently swap tokens. In short, 1inch is able to easily aggregate liquidity from the largest DEX AMM’s such as UniSwap, SushiSwap, PancakeSwap, and BakerySwap. As the AMM space continues to expand, it seems 1inch will remain on the cunning edge. I’m looking forward to the seamless transactions and the innovations to follow.
