Coinbase Integrates 1inch’s Swap API for Enhanced token Swaps
Coinbase is set to integrate 1inch’s Swap API into its platform. This move aims to improve non-custodial token swaps within Coinbase’s decentralized exchange feature.
The integration makes Coinbase 1inch’s largest U.S. client. Scott Shapiro, head of trading at Coinbase, stated, “This partnership brings onchain trading closer to our users.” 1inch is a top decentralized exchange aggregator. it finds the best token swap rates across various decentralized exchanges.
With this API,Coinbase users can swap tokens from their self-custodied wallets without leaving the app. Shapiro believes this could bring “millions of users onchain.” For 1inch, this is a notable step in expanding its software-as-a-service business.
1Inch co-founder Sergej Kunz explained the benefits. “Our system aggregates quotes from multiple sources, ensuring the best execution prices,” he said. Users can access a vast network of liquidity, reducing price impact risks for large trades.
Coinbase has been expanding its decentralized trading options. Earlier this year, it launched a feature allowing users to access onchain assets through a self-custodial wallet. This integration aligns with Coinbase’s goal of becoming a crypto super app.
CEO Brian Armstrong said,”We aim to be people’s primary financial account.” This move could also help Coinbase tap into new revenue streams as spot trading volumes declined in Q2 2025.
