London – 10 February, 2026 – Alvara Protocol, the creator of the ERC-7621 Basket Token Standard, today announced the launch of its Liquidity Expansion Layer (LEL), integrating 1inch’s industry-leading Swap API to dramatically expand liquidity access for basket token creation and management.
The Liquidity Expansion Layer leverages 1inch’s aggregation technology to unlock access to the deepest liquidity pools across decentralized finance. By integrating 1inch’s Swap API, Alvara’s BSKT Lab now has access to tap into liquidity from Uniswap v3, Curve, Balancer, and numerous other decentralized exchanges, dramatically expanding the universe of tokens available for basket composition. This multi-source approach enables basket creators to access superior pricing, reduced slippage, and significantly greater token diversity when building and managing their on-chain funds.
“The Liquidity Expansion Layer transforms basket tokens from a limited-liquidity product into a genuinely flexible infrastructure for tokenized portfolio management,” said Callum Clark Co-Founder of Alvara Protocol. “By partnering with 1inch, we’re ensuring that basket token creators have access to the deepest liquidity pools across DeFi. This is essential for ERC-7621 to achieve its potential as institutional-grade infrastructure.”
Technical Innovation
The Liquidity Expansion Layer integration enables basket token creators to:
-
Access deep liquidity across decentralized exchanges through 1inch’s aggregation network, unlocking more diverse asset composition options
-
Leverage 1inch’s smart routing algorithms to find optimal pricing and execution paths across multiple liquidity sources
-
Achieve optimal execution quality and efficient pricing for basket creation and redemption transactions
-
Benefit from an expandable liquidity framework that automatically incorporates new DEX protocols as they emerge
“Alvara’s Liquidity Expansion Layer shows how ERC-7621 can unlock truly flexible, institutional-grade on-chain portfolios when paired with deep, aggregated liquidity”, said Sergej Kunz, 1inch co-founder. “By integrating the 1inch Swap API, basket creators gain seamless access to the best prices across DeFi, turning basket tokens into a powerful new financial primitive.”
Industry Positioning
The Alvara-1inch partnership positions both organizations at the forefront of basket token infrastructure development. While competitors rely on single-source liquidity or manual token whitelisting, the LEL’s automated multi-source approach creates a scalable foundation for the growing tokenized fund management sector.
