Aave is a leading decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol that enables users to lend and borrow cryptocurrencies without intermediaries. Originally launched in 2017 as ETHLend, Aave has evolved into a multi-chain liquidity hub known for innovations like flash loans, algorithmic interest rates, and cross-chain lending. With deployments on Ethereum, Polygon, Avalanche, and more, Aave supports a wide array of digital assets. Its latest upgrade, Aave v3, introduced risk-mitigation features and enhanced borrowing efficiency. The community-driven protocol continues to grow with the introduction of GHO, a native stablecoin, and maintains its status as a cornerstone of DeFi.
