Aave V4 goes live on Arc; AI agents can plug in directly

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
