Back in March, @1inch was sitting at just 32% of the DEX aggregator market
Fast forward to May, and it’s jumped to 60% a wild comeback in only two months after expansion to $SOL 👉https://t.co/5nRJbq7IEu
What flipped the script?
A bold move into Solana. As meme-coin trading blew up there, 1inch seized the moment—and scored big
The payoff was massive:
Total DEX aggregator volume hit a record $52 billion in May
1inch itself accounted for $31.5 billion of that total
Here’s where Solana shines:
It’s responsible for 86% of new token launches, while chains like Base are trailing with just 10%. 1inch jumped in right when it mattered the most
Takeaway:
DeFi dominance isn’t permanent. Move quickly, pick the right battlegrounds, and you can rewrite the map. That’s exactly what 1inch did
Bottom line:
In April/May, 1inch hit the timing perfectly landing on Solana right as memes and volumes went haywire. The result? A market-share tidal wave that reminds everyone why 1inch still leads the pack
