For more than a decade, the DeFi sector has operated on a fractured promise. The theoretical pitch of a fairer, more accessible global financial system has consistently crashed against the rocks of practical reality. In practice, DeFi has delivered a user experience defined by hostility of confusing interfaces, punitive gas fees, risky workflows, and the […] The post Aave launches first DeFi app that feels like a real bank — and it might finally bring crypto to everyone appeared first on CryptoSlate.

Aave said compliant, audited payment pathways are crucial for onboarding new users to decentralized finance. Aave Labs became one of the first major decentralized finance (DeFi) projects to secure authorization under Europe’s new Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, allowing the company to offer regulated stablecoin ramps across the European Economic Area (EEA). The approval enables “Push,” Aave Labs’ fiat-to-crypto service, to let users convert between euros and crypto assets, including the Aave protocol’s native stablecoin, GHO. The Central Bank of Ireland granted the authorization to Push Virtual Assets Ireland Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aave Labs.  The company selected Ireland for its European operations, signaling that the country is becoming a preferred hub for compliant onchain finance under MiCA. On June 25, the crypto exchange Kraken secured its MiCA authorization in Ireland, allowing it to expand its offerings across Europe.  Read more

When Uniswap’s administrators filed their “UNIfication” proposal on Nov. 10, it read less like a protocol update and more like a corporate overhaul. The plan would activate dormant protocol fees, channel them through a new on-chain treasury engine, and utilize the proceeds to purchase and burn UNI tokens. This is a model that mirrors share-repurchase […] The post Uniswap, Lido, Aave?! How DeFi Is Quietly Becoming More Centralized appeared first on CryptoSlate.

The proposal would make Aave’s $50 million annual buyback a permanent feature, expanding on the success of previous buyback initiatives. Aave’s decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) introduced a proposal to create a long-term, protocol-funded buyback program that would use up to $50 million in annual revenue to repurchase Aave tokens. The proposal, submitted on Wednesday by the Aave Chan Initiative (ACI), seeks to make buybacks a permanent component of Aave’s tokenomics. Under the plan, the Aave Finance Committee (AFC) and TokenLogic would lead the execution, repurchasing $250,000 to $1.75 million in Aave (AAVE) tokens weekly, depending on market conditions, liquidity and volatility.  If approved, the proposal will proceed through the Aave Request for Comment (ARFC) stage for community feedback, followed by a Snapshot vote and final onchain governance confirmation. Unlike short-term market interventions, the proposal aims to institutionalize buybacks as a recurring mechanism, essentially making the DAO ...

The partnership links Aave’s liquidity with Maple Finance’s institutional credit pools, introducing yield-bearing stablecoins to Aave's lending markets. Lending protocol Aave has partnered with onchain credit platform Maple Finance to connect institutional capital with decentralized liquidity.  Announced on Tuesday, the integration will introduce Maple’s yield-bearing stablecoins — syrupUSDC and syrupUSDT — to Aave.

The tokens are backed by assets from Maple’s onchain credit pools, which manage billions of dollars in institutional capital from allocators and borrowers. According to Maple, the move is intended to “stabilize borrow demand and improve capital efficiency” across Aave’s markets. Read more

The update promises major changes to improve user experience and introduces a modular design, replacing Aave's monolithic architecture. Decentralized finance (DeFi) platform Aave is releasing its V4 update, a major protocol upgrade, sometime in the fourth quarter of 2025, introducing modular lending markets and new risk controls among new features. The update introduces a “hub and spoke” modular design to Aave to allow for crypto borrowing and lending markets with more custom parameters, without trapping liquidity in different siloes, according to an update from Aave. Liquidity hubs act as central pools for modular spokes; each of the spokes represents a different market with one of three risk profiles and features different borrowing and lending rates, replacing Aave’s current uniform rates.

Rumors on social media about a World Liberty Financial governance proposal from October 2024 drove the Aave token down by over $30. The price of the Aave (AAVE) token tumbled by over 8% on Saturday, following rumors that the decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol would receive a different token allocation from World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a DeFi platform backed by members of US president Donald Trump’s family. “The WLFI team told WuBlockchain that the claim that ‘Aave will receive 7% of the total WLFI token supply’ is false and fake news,” blockchain reporter Colin Wu said, sparking a debate about the rumor and the token arrangement on social media. Wu was referencing a WLFI community proposal from October 2024, outlining an arrangement in which the Aave decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), responsible for governing the protocol, would receive 7% of the WLFI governance token’s circulating supply and 20% of protocol revenues generated by the WLFI deployment on Aave v3.

Aave enters a blockchain with few competitors, with only one top-five Aptos protocols having a TVL of $1 billion or more. Aave, a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol with $70 billion in net deposits, has launched on Aptos, a layer-1 blockchain founded by former Meta employees. The move may deepen stablecoin and liquid staking token liquidity on the blockchain, two asset classes subject to regulation in 2025. According to an announcement shared with Cointelegraph, Aave will support four coins native to the blockchain at launch: stablecoins USDC (USDC) and USDt (USDT), Aptos (APT), and Ethena Staked USDe (sUSDe). The Aptos Foundation will provide users with rewards and liquidity incentives to promote the use of Aave on the Aptos blockchain. The arrival of Aave could deepen stablecoin liquidity on the blockchain, as the fiat-pegged cryptocurrencies are experiencing a breakthrough and are one of the industry’s most-discussed use cases.
