The 1inch Network announced on Wednesday its plans to deploy the 1inch Aggregation Protocol on Avalanche and the 1inch Limit Order Protocol on Gnosis Chain, formerly known as the xDai Chain. In a statement shared with Cointelegraph, the 1inch Network expressed its aim to further expand its capabilities within the decentralized finance, or DeFi, industry.

“1inch’s main goal is to offer users the best deals across the blockchain space,” said Sergej Kunz, 1inch Network co-founder, adding that the expansion to Avalanche and Gnosis Chain "will offer 1inch users more options for cheap and fast transactions.”

Avalanche (AVAX) is a quickly growing cross-chain network whose TVL, according to DeFi Llama,  stood at $10.4 billion at the time of publication. However, the AVAX token has been subject to vulnerability as part of the Multichain hack this week.

According to the statement, a number of protocols will be immediately available via 1inch on Avalanche, including 1inch Limit Order Protocol, Aave, Baguette, Canary Exchange, Pangolin, SushiSwap and Trader Joe.

3 possible reasons why Polkadot is playing second fiddle in the L1 race
2021 was a sort of "coming-of-age" for many layer-one (L1) blockchain protocols because the growth of decentralized finance (DeFi) and nonfungible tokens (NFTs) forced users to look for solutions outside of the Ethereum (ETH) network where high fees and network congestion continued to be barriers for many. Protocols like Fantom (FTM), Avalanche (AVAX) and Cosmos (ATOM) saw their token values rise and ecosystems flourished as 2021 came to a close. Meanwhile, popular projects like Polkadot (DOT) underperformed, comparatively speaking, despite the high expectations many had for the sharded multi-chain protocol. Setting aside the specific capability that each protocol offers in …

Avalanche (AVAX) loses 30%+ in April, but its DeFi footprint leaves room to be bullish
Avalanche (AVAX) price is down more than 30% in April, but despite the negative price move, the smart contract platform remains a top contender for decentralized applications due to its scalability, low-cost transactions and its large footprint in the decentralized finance (DeFi) landscape. The network is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and unique in that it does not face the same operational bottlenecks of high transaction fees and network congestion. Avalanche was able to amass over $9 billion in total value locked (TVL) by offering a proof-of-stake (PoS) layer-1 scaling solution. This indicator is extremely relevant because it …
