Aave Pro Gets Enhanced Reserve Pages with Interest Rate Data and Supply Caps

Aave has frozen rsETH markets across V3 and V4 following a Kelp DAO bridge exploit. Analysis confirms rsETH on Ethereum mainnet remains fully backed. **Key Actions Taken:** - rsETH markets frozen to prevent new deposits and borrowing - WETH reserves frozen across Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Mantle, and Linea - Exposure to the incident has been capped **Important Notes:** - Aave's contracts were not exploited - The issue stems from the rsETH bridge vulnerability - Team is reviewing borrows that occurred post-exploit Aave continues validating information and assessing potential resolutions. If bad debt accumulates, the protocol will explore options to offset any deficit.

**Aave V4 continues rapid growth trajectory** Supply, borrow, and credit line caps have been increased across multiple assets after reaching full capacity. This marks the latest in a series of cap raises since V4's launch. **Key milestones:** - Multiple assets hitting maximum capacity repeatedly - [LlamaRisk](https://twitter.com/LlamaRisk) proposing increases to meet demand - Caps scaling gradually under security-first approach The protocol launched with conservative limits by design. Risk managers evaluate performance before proposing increases, balancing growth with security as the system matures.

Aave Labs has introduced **Aave Checkpoint**, a new tool designed to enhance governance security and transparency. The tool performs three key functions: - Fetches onchain data from new proposals and payloads - Cross-references parameters against forum specifications - Runs automated security checks before execution Aave Checkpoint helps the community verify that governance proposals match their intended specifications before they go live, reducing the risk of errors or malicious code execution. This addition strengthens Aave's governance process by providing an extra layer of review for protocol changes.
