On-chain lending and borrowing — borrow rates, liquidations, governance, and collateralized debt activity.
Borrowing caps are back on, but the exploit funneled the borrowed ETH through a sanctioned mixer — the borrowing-market plumbing is patched, the regulatory tail is not.
Aave has confirmed that WETH loan-to-value ratios have been fully restored to their pre-incident levels across all…
WETH borrowing is back at pre-incident levels across seven Aave V3 deployments — the second step in the rsETH recovery plan, with the swap-path work still open.
After $16.5B in cumulative DeFi exploits, the latest THORChain incident is forcing protocols toward the centralised-style controls they once resisted — Aave's rsETH bad debt is the canary.
Two weeks without a forced close ended Wednesday — the high-leverage ETH long is back inside the liquidation zone at $2,153, with cumulative losses now near $32M.
DeFi lending protocols have lost $7.7B to exploits since 2020, yet coverage sits at 0.14% of TVL — users keep chasing yield while the sector's own insurance stack shares the same vulnerabilities as…
An isolated lending pool aimed at institutions is the real differentiator — it routes risk away from Jupiter Lend's core liquidity so that a single large position can't drain the public book.
The restart comes a week after a Lazarus-linked April 18 attack drained the restaking market's largest LRT — a clean recovery test for the DeFi lending stack that absorbed the impact.
SOL joins the collateral stack as Coinbase's crypto-backed loan book crosses $2.3B in originations — a sign the venue is betting users want yield-plus-borrowing, not yield-versus-it.
The bad debt is gone, but the road back is brutal: FLUID buybacks paused, incentives cut or removed, and an oracle + pricing-system overhaul on the slate before the next product wave.
The 30,765 ETH is a sliver of Aave TVL but the precedent is the story: a DAO-level vote becomes the legal bridge between DeFi custody and a US terrorism judgment.
The lift only frees the funds to move — North Korea-linked judgment creditors keep their claim against whatever wallet ends up holding the ETH.
Brazilian savers in Recife now earn Aave yield on USDC, and Mexican and Argentine holders borrow against BTC and ETH without selling — DeFi stops being a niche experiment when the on-ramp stops being…
The order is a narrow procedural win for the recovery plan — but the restraining notice now follows the ETH wherever it lands, keeping terrorism judgment creditors one step behind the protocol.
The $71M in ETH the Arbitrum DAO voted to return was frozen by plaintiffs holding a North Korea judgment — Aave will borrow against the shortfall and burn the seized rsETH to drain the hacker's…
A near-unanimous DAO vote to free exploit-frozen ether now collides with a Manhattan court fight — the eight-day Constitutional AIP delay may be the only window that decides who gets the funds.
The DAO vote was near-unanimous, but a May 1 federal order tied to North Korea-related judgments freezes the path to DeFi United, leaving Aave's $190M bad debt in legal limbo.
The lending giant is folding cybersecurity, interoperability, and architecture into its listing criteria — and publishing a minimum-standards playbook the rest of DeFi will be measured against.
For a decade, DeFi audited code. Mythos maps how small weaknesses in keys, bridges and oracles chain into systemic failures — and both attackers and defenders are already moving.
A joint proposal from Aave, Kelp, and LayerZero is asking the Arbitrum DAO to release $71 million in frozen ETH as part…
