Smart Savings Platform Launches Major Upgrade with Enhanced Markets and Analytics

**Compound V3 markets are preparing to resume operations** following the rsETH incident that led to widespread pausing of lending markets. **Key Updates:** - USDC market on Ethereum mainnet will be unpaused - WETH markets across multiple chains (Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Linea, Unichain) will resume - **Target date: Saturday, April 26** - Other previously paused markets remain frozen for now **What This Means:** Once unpaused, users will regain full functionality including withdrawals, borrowing, and automated position management. Currently, users can only supply collateral or repay debt while markets remain paused. The gradual reopening suggests a cautious approach to restoring normal operations after the security incident.

DeFi Saver has rolled out three new features for managing aWETH-based positions on Aave: - **Collateral switching for aWETH** - Swap collateral even when ETH market is frozen or at 100% utilization - **Repay with collateral for aWETH** - Use aWETH directly for debt repayment - **Repay ETH debt using aWETH liquidity** - Alternative repayment method during high utilization These tools address the challenge of constant 100% utilization in the ETH market by using aWETH tokens directly instead of withdrawing underlying assets. The features leverage liquidity from the Fluid aWETH Redemption Protocol. **Key considerations:** - Liquidity constraints exist based on available aWETH through Fluid - Users should verify target assets aren't at 100% utilization - Currently live on Ethereum mainnet - L2 support coming tomorrow Access the updated tools at [app.defisaver.com/aave](https://app.defisaver.com/aave/)

**$300M rsETH Stolen from KelpDAO Bridge** An exploiter stole $300 million worth of rsETH from KelpDAO's Ethereum bridging contracts. The stolen tokens were used as collateral on Aave and Compound to borrow ETH through looped positions. **Key Impacts:** - More rsETH now circulates than exists in backing reserves - Lending protocol debt is effectively undercollateralized - Aave and Compound paused rsETH and ETH markets - DeFi Saver automation features affected for these assets **Current Status:** - Aave V3 and V4 rsETH markets frozen - No new deposits or borrowing against rsETH allowed - Teams reviewing post-exploit borrows - Resolution approaches under discussion Aave confirmed their contracts were not exploited - the vulnerability was in KelpDAO's bridge. If bad debt accumulates, protocols will explore deficit offset options. [Full details](https://help.defisaver.com/general/kelpdao-rseth-incident-april-2026)
