With more capital moving onchain, there have to be more systems that are resilient. “The technical risk is still there and in the age of AI you have to be careful around that. More of the risk [today] is on the side of collateral and there still isn’t an exact model for tokenization coming onchain at scale. …but at some point when there’s sufficient stability, it’ll be reconsidered.” - @StaniKulechov of @aave said on stage with @andyyy

Borrow against your gold on @aave without selling it. PAXGy is now live as collateral. Borrow USDG or PAXG against it, and the gold you supply keeps growing in ounces the whole time. Thank you to @LlamaRisk and the Aave community for supporting the launch! Gold that grows, now working in DeFi. Learn more at paxgy.com

Aave V3 has withstood the test of time, liquidity and had an eventful year. We must continue to look after it in order to preserve DeFi's liquidity and health. Focusing on liquid, blue-chip collateral makes a lot of sense to me - given that V4 offers isolation for riskier assets.
LlamaRisk proposes repositioning Aave V3 Core, Aave's largest market, to focus on liquid, blue-chip collateral. The proposal would remove several categories of exposure: 1. Restaking assets 2. Leveraged wrapping strategies 3. Issuers whose operational and security resources fall short of Aave's risk standards 4. Low-demand reserves that no longer justify ongoing maintenance This means potentially moving $1.52B in collateral backing $1.17B in debt out of V3 Core in favour of blue-chip collateral. As the risk landscape evolves and Aave V4 grows, the goal is to sharpen V3 Core's risk profile and raise the bar for collateral eligibility. Some affected assets could transition to isolated Aave V4 markets, where more granular risk controls allow for better risk-reward alignment. The proposal comes from LlamaRisk, an Aave Protocol Risk Manager, and remains subject to governance discussions and engagement with asset issuers. Aave will continue applying continuous risk assessment for all assets across all deployments.

The first curated markets on @aave by @SentoraHQ grew from $1M to $100M in ten days. Most of DeFi’s top vaults took over a month to hit their first $100M. The Aave effect is real.
In under three weeks, @SentoraHQ has become the first curator on Aave to cross $100 million deposits.

Been a big cheerleader for @odysseas_eth and team since last year we ran into each other at a dinner and he explained Phylax to me. Now more than ever - DeFi needs protection on all levels.
Today, 1 in 2 Ethereum blocks will be protected. With Phylax, apps can set circuit breakers that Titan Builder enforces at block construction, excluding transactions that violate app-defined rules before settlement. It's a simple idea: hacks should not settle.

If you told me a couple of years ago that this crazy idea we had would be running on the biggest blockchain in the world I would call you crazy 😭😭 Couldn’t have asked for a better team to deliver this and amazing partners like @kubimensah and @titanbuilderxyz . Ethereum is the most Lindy and secure chain. Now, the apps can say that as well! Deeply grateful to have @Lighter_xyz and @DeriveXYZ as our first customers. It’s been an amazing journey and it’s still day 1. Almost 1 billion under protection, many more to come.

Aave's first external curator, @SentoraHQ, has reached $100M in deposits a few weeks after launch. Just the beginning.
Sentora’s Aave V4 deployment has passed $100M in deposits. Our Ethereum Liquidity Hub runs the first externally curated markets on @aave V4, with borrowing in RLUSD, PYUSD and OUSD.

🔥 NEW: Aave Labs has acquired the team and technology behind Avon, one of the leading fixed-rate lending teams onchain. The deal brings fixed-rate lending to Aave, which holds more than $33B in deposits. Could fixed rates bring more institutions to DeFi?
