🔒 Aave V4 Hits Deposit Caps Again
🔒 Aave V4 Hits Deposit Caps Again
🚨 Caps filled again
Aave V4 has reached supply caps across multiple assets for the second time in recent days. Risk management firm LlamaRisk has proposed another round of cap increases to meet growing demand.
Key Points:
- Multiple asset deposit limits reached capacity
- Conservative caps are part of V4's security-first launch strategy
- Risk managers review and adjust limits as system proves stable
- V4 recently crossed $20M in total deposits
The protocol launched with intentionally low deposit caps as a safety measure. As these limits fill up, risk managers analyze performance before proposing gradual increases.
Supply caps across several assets on Aave V4 have been reached again. @LlamaRisk proposed another cap increase to accommodate demand. Security first: V4 deposit caps start conservative by design. As caps fill, risk managers evaluate and propose increases to meet demand.
Since several assets reached maximum capacity, Aave V4’s deposit caps have been increased to accommodate additional liquidity. Supply and borrow caps will continue to scale up gradually as they fill.
Aave V4 crossed $10 million in deposits during its security-first growth phase. Supply and borrow caps will be gradually increased from here as the system matures.

Aave V4 has reached $20M in deposits. Caps scale up from here as the system matures, under a security-first launch.
After two years of research and building, V4 brings an all-new architecture to help Aave support more assets, market structures, and risk profiles. V4 runs on the same @chainlink oracle infrastructure that already secures tens of billions of dollars on V3 today.

CowSwap Frontend Attack Prompts Aave to Reroute Swaps Through ParaSwap
**CowSwap frontend compromised, Aave Protocol unaffected** A frontend attack on CowSwap has been detected, but the Aave Interface and Protocol remain secure and operational. **Key developments:** - CowSwap team temporarily disabled swap endpoints for all integrators as a safety precaution - Aave Interface has rerouted swap functionality through [ParaSwap](https://paraswap.io) where available - Service continuity maintained for Aave users despite the incident This follows CowSwap's previous security response in 2023 when they patched their frontend during the Ledger connector hack. The current attack appears isolated to CowSwap's frontend infrastructure. Users can continue swapping on Aave through the ParaSwap integration while CowSwap addresses the security issue.
