1inch Publishes DeFi Oral History on Written Blockchain

1inch (1INCH) Editor: Eugene Serbin

crypto-economy.com reports that 1inch has launched the digital edition of *reDeFine Money* on the blockchain-based publishing platform Written. The book is available in a standard digital format for $9.99 and as ten limited copies backed by unique NFTs for $149.99. All revenue from these digital sales will be directed to charitable organizations.

The oral history features testimonies from founders of major protocols including Aave, Curve, MakerDAO, PancakeSwap, and SushiSwap. Key interviewees include 1inch co-founders Sergej Kunz and Anton Bukov, Aave founder Stani Kulechov, and MakerDAO co-founder Rune Christensen. The narrative covers industry bubbles, hacks, and collapses, with a specific focus on the 2022 crash when decentralized protocols remained operational while centralized entities like FTX and Celsius failed.

Previous sign-ups for the free PDF can access the book on Written via an email with instructions. This launch coincides with 1inch expanding to Cronos with full integration across its apps and APIs. Additionally, the team joined the SEAL Whitehat Safe Harbor Agreement to support rapid intervention by white hat hackers. Security researchers submitted 1,055 reports across six core HackenProof bug bounty programs in the first half of 2026.
