Aave
AAVENon-custodial liquidity protocol enabling interest earning and borrowing on crypto assets.
Résumé exécutif
Aave (formerly ETHLend) est une plateforme open-source non-custodial liquidity market protocol launched by Stani Kulechov in 2017. Aave allows users to deposit digital assets into liquidity pools to earn interest or borrow crypto assets against over-collateralized deposits.
Fonctionnement & Architecture
Liquidity Pools & Interest Rate Algorithms
Lenders deposit assets into liquidity pools and receive interest-bearing aTokens (e.g., aUSDT) that accrue yield in real-time.
Borrowers access loans by supplying excess collateral. Interest rates adjust dynamically based on pool utilization ratios.
Flash Loans & Safety Module
Aave pioneered Flash Loans—uncollateralized borrowing that must be borrowed and repaid within the exact same block execution.
The Aave Safety Module enables token holders to stake AAVE to backstop protocol insolvency risks while earning protocol incentives.
