Decentralized exchange aggregator 1inch has announced an update to its price route discovery algorithm, claiming to offer up to 6.5% better swap rates after the recent upgrade known as 'Pathfinder.' This new algorithm enhances the trading experience by consolidating specific swap steps and optimizing the use of concentrated liquidity, which increases gas efficiency. 1inch hopes these improvements will lower the barrier for retail investors and boost trust in decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms. The updated decentralized application also features improved visualizations to provide users with insights into token and transaction execution. The upgrade is part of 1inch's strategy to enhance swap efficiency and gas savings compared to competitors, as they focus on dynamic aggregation across multiple ecosystems rather than single-venue liquidity. Additionally, the team continues to expand integrations, including the ability to trade over one million Solana-based tokens, with future plans for swaps between Solana and multiple other networks.
