1inch’s joint liquidity mining program with ICHI

Following recent successful farming programs, the 1inch and ICHI teams are excited to announce the launch of a new joint liquidity mining program.

ICHI is the native token of the ICHI protocol, a community-driven infrastructure that enables any crypto community to create and run their own stablecoin pegged to the U.S. Dollar. Through this partnership both communities will be rewarded with 1INCH and ICHI tokens with future collaborations coming further down the line.

Powering the community through joint liquidity mining

With the launch of the joint farming mining program both teams aim to strengthen the ties between the 1inch and ICHI communities, allowing them to earn both ICHI and 1INCH tokens for their liquidity provision services, a win-win situation for all LPs, who had to previously decide whether to stake their liquidity pool tokens (LP tokens) at ichi.org and earn ICHI or at 1inch.exchange and earn 1INCH.

Reward schedule

The 1INCH-ICHI farming program starts on March 23 at 00.01 UTC and will run for 20 weeks, split into five 4-week periods.

During this 20-week period, 0.01% of the 1INCH token supply (150k 1INCH) will be distributed throughout the liquidity providers. In line with this, a minimum of 1.5% of the ICHI token supply (75k ICHI) will be distributed to liquidity providers. See ‘Table 1’ for the distribution details by month.
