1inch Expands Institutional Access to DeFi Liquidity by Integrating with Talos

DUBAI, December 18, 2024 – 1inch, a leading decentralized finance (DeFi) project today announced its integration with Talos, the premier provider of institutional portfolio and trading technology for digital assets. This collaboration enhances liquidity access for Talos clients by allowing them to leverage 1inch’s Swap API, which sources liquidity across multiple decentralized exchanges to help ensure optimal trade execution.

1inch is designed to help traders access the best possible prices and lowest fees by aggregating liquidity across numerous DEXs and choosing the best trading routes. Through this integration, Talos clients can utilize 1inch’s aggregation protocol to seamlessly interact with deeper liquidity in the DeFi ecosystem with enhanced efficiency.

“This integration marks a pivotal step in bringing together institutions and decentralized finance,” said Sergej Kunz, Co-Founder of 1inch. “Together, we're making DeFi accessible, reliable and impactful for the world’s leading institutions.”

“We’re excited to integrate 1inch into the Talos platform, significantly broadening the universe of liquidity available to our clients,” said Anton Katz, CEO and Co-Founder of Talos. “1inch’s aggregation technology and connectivity to all essential DEXs will provide Talos clients with improved price discovery, essential for sophisticated digital asset trading.”

Unlike centralized exchanges, DEXs enable peer-to-peer transactions without intermediaries managing the order flow, holding funds, or supervising the process. By trading on DEXs, users retain control over their assets in their own wallets. For this integration, Fireblocks, a digital assets infrastructure provider, facilitates secure access to 1inch through the Talos platform.

Talos’s trading platform also provides clients with advanced time-based algorithmic strategies, including the TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price) algorithm, enabling seamless transactions across both centralized and decentralized venues.

This integration marks Talos’s latest step in expanding its clients' connectivity to decentralized liquidity, following its integration with Uniswap last year, and advances its mission of connecting institutions to the digital asset ecosystem in a secure environment.
