He also traces 1inch's evolution from intent-based swaps and Fusion.
Sergej Kunz is the Co-Founder of 1inch, a leading DeFi aggregator and liquidity infrastructure protocol he built starting from an Ethereum hackathon in 2019.

If you run concentrated liquidity positions you know the grind. Price moves, you're out of range, you're rebalancing at, like, 3am. 1inch Aqua lets you take a different approach. You can stack multiple positions on the same token balance instead of babysitting a dozen pools, and your tokens never leave your wallet. Your liquidity stays awake, so you can catch up on your sleep. Check it out at 1inch.com/aqua
