The 1inch DeFi aggregator team announced support for the Unichain network, developed on the OP Stack. This second-level solution is already available in the 1inch dApp, 1inch Wallet, and via API, providing expanded capabilities for token swaps and protection from MEV bots.
As a result of the integration, users can exchange tokens within the Unichain network, as well as between it and other EVM-compatible blockchains at the most favorable rates. A special feature of Unichain is the use of subblocks with a response time of only 200 milliseconds, which makes transactions fast and cheap. In addition, double protection from MEV has been implemented: the Fusion mechanism from 1inch is combined with the secure TEE block architecture from Unichain.
1inch Wallet and 1inch Portfolio now also support viewing balances and open positions on Uniswap, including support for V2, V3, and V4. This provides a single interface for managing assets in real time.
The Unichain network was launched in February 2025 and by mid-June, it reached a TVL of $832 million, according to DeFiLlama. Thanks to its compatibility with Ethereum and high liquidity, Unichain is becoming an attractive solution for traders and developers.
As 1inch co-founder Sergey Kunz emphasized, integration with Unichain is in line with the company's strategy for creating a cross-chain infrastructure: "Deep liquidity and built-in protection from MEV allow us to provide users with the most efficient transactions across networks."
From March to June 2025, the total capitalization of stablecoins in Unichain reached $344.2 million, with more than half of them issued natively. This confirms the trust in the Unichain ecosystem as a stable and profitable platform.
Developers can access Unichain via the 1inch Developer Portal, where they can use tools like Fusion, Fusion+, and the order book, making it easier to integrate their products with the new network.
With support for all current versions of Uniswap and WETH, 1inch solidifies its position as a centralized access point for decentralized liquidity. The integration with Unichain is an important step in expanding the aggregator's functionality and creating a more accessible and secure environment for DeFi users.
