BSC: How To Earn Up To 57% APY By Staking Your 1Inch Tokens

With the crypto going into a sideways market for now, I wanted to earn some interest on the existing tokens that I had. I found out that you can stake your 1Inch token on the 1Inch exchange to earn governance rewards. This is different from the liquidity mining where you might be subject to impermanent losses.

On the Ethereum network, you can earn up to 57% APY (as of 1st Jun 2021) staking your 1Inch Tokens for governance reward.

On the BSC network, you can earn up to 46% APY (as of 1st Jun 2021) staking your 1Inch Tokens for governance reward.

I went with staking on the BSC network, simply because the fees are a lot cheaper.
