Aave

Aave V4 has gone live on Arc, Circle's USDC-native Layer 1 blockchain. The deployment runs a single Core Liquidity Hub with two Spokes — a general Main market and a Forex Spoke built around stablecoin borrowing — initially supporting USDC, EURC, cirBTC, and WETH.

Aave amplified the launch by reposting a video from Arc in which Kolten of Aave breaks down the Core Hub and the Main and Forex markets. The team also amplified a post from Sam Conner of Circle's Arc developer community showing builders can plug Aave directly into AI agent workflows on Arc — checking positions, depositing or borrowing assets, comparing yields, and automatically rebalancing.

• The deployment plants Aave's lending markets inside Circle's institutional blockchain ecosystem, using the same hub-and-spoke architecture V4 already runs on Ethereum, Avalanche, and other networks
• Aave's repost positions the Arc instance as ready for agent-driven DeFi experimentation

USDC and USDT deposits from Hyperliquid's HyperEVM are now live in Aave's mobile savings app, the latest network added to its early-access deposit rollout alongside USDC/USDT from Ethereum and the earlier USDC from Base. Aave confirmed the HyperEVM addition on X, pointing users to a getting-started page.

The app — the Aave App / World Savings App — continues its country-by-country onboarding across the US, Italy, the Netherlands, and Austria following the initial Germany cohort, with Ghost Pass codes like 'ETHEREUM' letting waitlist users skip the queue. Founder Stani Kulechov frames the app as "DeFi for everyone"; Android availability and the full feature set have not yet been detailed.

Aave V3 on Monad has listed PT-AUSD-17DEC2026 — a Pendle principal token backed by Agora's AUSD stablecoin and maturing Dec 17, 2026 — as collateral. Borrowers can take stablecoin loans at up to 93% LTV via the token's stablecoin eMode category, and the initial 30 million-token supply cap quickly filled.

LlamaRisk runs the market's risk management at scale: two predeployed risk agents on Aave's AgentHub automatically maintain the discount rate and eMode risk parameters from the LlamaRisk PT Risk Oracle, within defined bounds. The listing follows approval of the underlying risk-oracle payload and mirrors LlamaRisk's dynamic-parameter setup for its PT market on Plasma.

Babylon Labs has published an ARFC on the Aave governance forum proposing to onboard native Bitcoin as collateral on Aave V4 through its Trustless Bitcoin Vaults (TBV) protocol. Aave announced the proposal on X and linked the forum thread, welcoming it as a way for users to lock native BTC on the Bitcoin chain and borrow supported assets against it — no bridges, wrappers, or custodians, with Bitcoin never leaving the Bitcoin network.

• The integration would deploy two new Aave V4 Spokes, including a Babylon Spoke
• Babylon argues the design removes wrapped-asset custodial risk and opens up BTC's roughly $1 trillion+ market capitalization to Aave's lending markets
• Proposal is in community discussion phase, following Aave's recent string of ARFCs expanding V4 markets and collateral types

Coinbase Tokenized Stocks are live as collateral on Aave V4 on Base, letting eligible non-U.S. users deposit AAPLc, AMZNc, GOOGLc, METAc, MSFTc, NVDAc, and TSLAc and borrow USDC against them. Aave DAO has now approved incentives for the market, with Aave amplifying on X that rewards are live on the Coinbase stocks via Base on Aave.

• Rewards apply to V4's Equities Hub; the stock tokens are collateral-only and not borrowable
• The V4 instance was deployed by Aave Labs with risk analysis by LlamaRisk, and Chainlink provides tokenized equity pricing carrying both the share price and the issuer multiplier
• Founder Stani Kulechov, Base creator Jesse Pollak, and Aave contributor Luigi DeMeo amplified the launch, framed as a step toward bringing the $150 trillion global equities market onchain

Aave is now available through Base's Earn & Borrow program, an end-to-end integration stack that lets businesses building on Base offer users stablecoin yield and loans against their digital assets, powered by Aave. Aave confirmed the availability on X and amplified a repost by Kolten noting how much easier the stack makes integrating Aave yield and lending for Base builders.

• Earn & Borrow connects apps to third-party lending markets, with Aave alongside Morpho as the underlying lending protocols
• Borrowers remain subject to the underlying protocols' liquidation rules and variable rates
• The program launched in mid-October as Base's push to make stablecoin yield and crypto-backed loans embeddable for its builder ecosystem

TokenLogic has improved the GHO Stability Module page on its Aave dashboard, letting users pick any GSM to see what it holds, what it earns, and how much capacity is used. A "How this GSM works" view walks through each step from stablecoin to GHO. Aave amplified the update by reposting it on X, with the page live at aave.tokenlogic.xyz.

Dialectic has launched seven new vaults on Base, one for each of the Magnificent Seven stocks, built on Makina. Each vault puts a tokenized stock to work in an onchain strategy, and availability is limited to eligible geographies outside the U.S.

• The vaults span Apple, Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Tesla exposure via tokenized stocks
• Built on Makina's non-custodial vault system on the Base execution layer
• Aave amplified the launch by reposting Dialectic's announcement on X, its latest signal of support for tokenized-equity markets on Base
• Dialectic's announcement follows its earlier Starloop plan for tokenized SpaceX positions used as collateral in lending markets

Aave Labs has submitted its response to the European Commission's MiCA Review Consultation, laying out its regulatory recommendations for the EU's crypto-asset framework. In the submission, Aave Labs recommends regulating intermediaries rather than software, protecting self-custody, preserving savers' returns from lending, and letting euro stablecoins compete.
