1inch Debuts Shared Liquidity Protocol Aqua for Efficient DeFi Trading

1inch, a decentralized trading aggregator, has launched its shared liquidity protocol Aqua. This new model allows users to support multiple DeFi liquidity positions without storing assets in pools, keeping their funds safely in their wallets.

Aqua solves several problems currently facing the DeFi ecosystem, including idle assets and low capital utilization. By registering wallet balances as shareable liquidity sources, users can simultaneously support multiple positions without transferring ownership of their assets.

When a trade is executed, the protocol will only call for the necessary tokens through atomic transactions, returning any received tokens and fees to the user's wallet. This new model supports 13 EVM-compatible chains, including Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Robinhood Chain, and BNB Chain.
