Swapping tokens isn’t as simple as it seems there’s a lot going on under the hood
Thankfully, @1inch has upgraded Pathfinder, its powerful routing algorithm, and that means better prices, smarter routes, and fewer failed transactions for you
What is Pathfinder?
Pathfinder is the brain behind every swap on 1inch.
It scans thousands of routes across different DEXes, liquidity sources, and blockchains to find the fastest, safest, and most cost-effective path for your trade.
What’s New with the Upgrade?
🔹 Smarter Route Optimization
It now taps into even deeper liquidity by splitting trades across multiple micro-paths using AMMs, RFQs, and limit orders—giving you better execution, even in volatile markets.
🔹 Cross-Chain Intelligence
Pathfinder doesn’t just work across multiple chains—it’s now deeply integrated within the EVM ecosystem, paving the way for seamless cross-chain swaps.
🔹 Improved Gas Estimations
Upgraded gas logic means fewer failed transactions and more reliable swaps.
🔹 Faster & Cheaper
The new routing system is quicker and more gas-efficient—especially useful for high-volume trades.

✔️ Lower slippage
✔️ Better route efficiency
✔️ Enhanced integration with 1inch APIs
