🪄 $1INCH: Governance and Utility
✨ Governance: $1INCH is the governance and utility token of the 1inch Network. Its holders participate in the governance of the protocols through the DAO, making decisions on key changes and development of the network.
✨ Staking & Unicorn Power (UP): Users can stake #1INCH tokens to earn Unicorn Power (UP), an internal metric of influence in the system. $UP can be delegated to resolvers in Fusion Mode and receive a portion of their fees.
✨ Fusion Mode: This unique mode allows you to place orders with a specified price and execution time without paying network fees. 1INCH is used to participate in the #Fusion mechanics — through staking, delegation and order management.
✨ Liquidity Incentives: The token is used to reward liquidity providers and participants in #DeFi campaigns, including within #Liquidity Protocol, trading, farming and other activities.
✨ Gas Refunds: Some users, upon fulfilling conditions (e.g. participating in #DAO or staking), are given a partial refund of fees (gas-fee) on transactions through #1inch.
✨ Cross-chain Utility: 1INCH is available and used on various networks: Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Optimism, zkSync, Base, and now — 🪙 #Solana. In each network, the token retains similar functionality.
