1inch launches effortless cross-chain swaps

Users can now enjoy secure and efficient swaps across multiple blockchains on all 1inch platforms.

We are excited to share that the cross-chain swap functionality, powered by the 1inch Fusion+ protocol, has come out of beta and is now fully available for all 1inch users in the 1inch Wallet and 1inch dApp.

Users maintain full self-custody of their assets, while the architecture ensures transactions are securely completed across the two networks involved in the swap.

Since beta launch on September 18, cross-chain swaps have quickly proven to be a game-changer in DeFi. With millions of dollars in total volume processed since its release, this cross-chain solution has proven its efficiency. Designed with security at its core, Fusion+ allows users to swap tokens across various L1 and L2 blockchains at optimal rates, all while retaining full self-custody of their assets.

Remember the hassle of bridges? Fusion+ rewrote the cross-chain rulebook by bringing seamless swaps across networks, removing the slowdowns and risks of previous DeFi solutions.

How to swap across chains in the 1inch Wallet

Getting started with Fusion+ in the 1inch Wallet couldn’t be simpler. There's no need for special modes or extra settings – just use the familiar swap interface with the added ability to swap across chains.

1. Select the token: choose the token you want to swap, just as you would for any transaction.
2. Choose the network: select a specific network or choose to use “All networks” in the network selector. When tokens like USDT are available across multiple networks (e.g., Ethereum, Arbitrum), you’ll see balances for each, so you can select the best fit.
3. Select the destination token: choose the token you want to receive and the network where you want to receive it. The Fusion+ swap interface will display familiar Fusion swap parameters like minimum receive and zero network fees.

Important note: to ensure a successful swap, keep the 1inch Wallet app open until the transaction is fully verified. Fusion+ uses intent-based architecture and atomic swap technology, operating through trustless verification. If the app closes prematurely, the order may be canceled. Once confirmed, the process is fully automated – delivering a seamless, fee-free experience directly from the 1inch Wallet.

Cross-chain swaps exit beta in the 1inch dApp

Users can now access the seamless cross-chain swap capabilities of Fusion+ directly within the 1inch dApp, without any additional setup required. Simply select your tokens and chains, confirm the transaction, and keep the tab open until the swap is complete.
