Aave-Chan Initiative（ACI）创始人及 Aave 生态治理贡献者 Marc Zeller 在宣布 ACI 项目结束运营后，有社区用户询问其是否仍持有 AAVE 代币还是已抛售，对此 Marc Zeller 回应表示，他在从 Chaos Labs 辞职时已清仓 AAVE（可能还持有非常少数量“尘埃级”的代币）。 此前消息，Marc Zeller 宣布 ACI 为期三年多的治理工作已结束，新项目预计将很快公布，在参与治理期间 Aave 协议从每年约 3500 万美元的赤字转变为年收入约 1.5 亿美元，AAVE 代币同期上涨约 9 倍。
According to monitoring by on-chain analyst Ember, investment institution ParaFi Capital (0x5028...4Db6) withdrew 56 million SKY (worth $2.98 million) from Coinbase Prime an hour ago. In early March, when AAVE was priced at $124, they swapped 42,500 AAVE for 70 million SKY. Currently, they hold a total of 126 million SKY, valued at $6.64 million, with an average entry price of approximately $0.066, resulting in an unrealized loss of $1.72 million.
据链上分析师 Onchain Lens（@OnchainLens）监测，随着 LIT 价格突破 2 美元，知名链上交易员 mk4（@mk4_lul）持有的 LIT 5 倍多头头寸浮动盈利已超 355 万美元。其同时持有 BTC、AAVE、WLD、XPL、MU、黄金及白银的多空头寸，整体浮动利润约 400 万美元，累计总利润已逼近 4100 万美元。
Odaily Aave, a DeFi lending protocol, successfully maintained operations after experiencing capital outflows totaling approximately $8.45 billion. However, the incident has simultaneously triggered renewed market discussion regarding its risk structure and the fragility of the DeFi system.This stress event originated from a vulnerability exploit on the KelpDAO rsETH cross-chain bridge in April 2026, resulting in the theft of approximately $292 million in assets. This triggered market concerns over the safety of rsETH collateral. As this asset was widely used as collateral on Aave, panic spread rapidly, leading to concentrated withdrawals by users.During the capital outflow process, liquidity in certain lending markets was quickly depleted, with utilization rates briefly approaching 100%. Aave managed the situation by adjusting risk parameters and activating emergency mechanisms, although localized withdrawal restrictions did occur.Nevertheless, Aave's core smart contracts were not compromised. Protocol founder Stani Kulechov stated that the event validated the system's stability and resilience under extreme stress conditions.However, analysts pointed out that this incident exposed structural risks within DeFi: high coupling of assets across protocols, reliance on external bridged assets for collateral, and the potential for liquidity to rapidly evaporate in extreme scenarios.Industry observers believe that while DeFi's "composability" enhances efficiency, it also accelerates risk transmission, potentially causing a single asset event to trigger systemic cascading effects. Although Aave successfully navigated this stress test, the outcome does not equate to the elimination of risk.Overall, this event is viewed as a genuine extreme stress test for the DeFi lending system: the system can function, but its stability remains highly dependent on the quality of external assets and the market liquidity environment.

according to on-chain analyst Ember's monitoring, a whale who recently shorted ETH has continued to short an additional 9,000 ETH after ETH's rebound. The whale borrowed 9,000 ETH from Aave, transferred them to Binance, and then withdrew 16.37 million USDT. The whale is currently shorting 44,000 ETH, worth $78.89 million, at an average short price of $1,702, with an unrealized loss of $3.08 million.
according to Lookonchain monitoring, as the market rebounds, a whale address has once again borrowed 19,000 ETH, worth approximately $33.48 million, from the decentralized lending protocol Aave and subsequently sold it on the same day. This whale has now borrowed a total of 44,389 ETH from Aave, valued at approximately $80.56 million, and there remains the possibility of further increasing borrowing and continuing to sell.
according to Ember monitoring, an Ethereum 1CO whale still actively trading has borrowed 10 million USDe from Aave 2 hours ago and purchased 5,817 ETH at an average price of approximately $1,719.Currently, this whale has collateralized approximately 147,000 ETH (worth about $253 million) on Aave and Spark, and has borrowed approximately $276 million in stablecoins. The current liquidation price for this position is around $1,432.
Odaily reports, according to on-chain analyst Ai Yi's monitoring, a whale withdrew 45.495 million USDT from Binance 3.5 hours ago, subsequently staked it into Aave, borrowed 10,000 ETH (worth approximately $17.25 million), and shorted it. Currently, this whale has staked a total of $156 million in stablecoins, borrowed 35,388.4 ETH, with an average sell price of $1,682.14. The position is currently at an unrealized loss of $1.098 million. Liquidation will be triggered if the ETH price rises to $3,453.36.
According to on-chain analyst Yu Jin (@EmberCN), the attacker responsible for the March THE liquidation event on the Venus platform sold 1,912 ETH for $3.26 million one hour ago to repay part of their loan on Aave. That loan was originally taken out by collateralizing ETH and was used to manipulate the Venus liquidations. The attacker’s address still has $6.78 million in USDT outstanding on Aave.
according to on-chain analyst Ai Yi's monitoring, an address (0x157…eF5da) sold 3,000 ETH at a price of $1,658.68 about 10 hours ago, with a total value of $4.98 million. The ETH held by this address can be traced back to three years ago, and for most of that time, it was staked in DeFi protocols such as Aave to generate returns.
According to on-chain analyst Onchain Lens (@OnchainLens), the U.S. government has transferred an additional $216,000 worth of assets from the seized FTX/Alameda-related funds, bringing the total transferred amount to $984,000. The assets involved in this transfer include LINK, AAVE, CHZ, and BAL.
Odaily reports, according to on-chain analyst Ember's monitoring, a whale shorting ETH via lending continues to short another 7,000 ETH, worth $11.83 million. Currently, the whale has deposited $132 million in stablecoins as collateral on Aave, borrowed 35,000 ETH and transferred them to Binance, worth $58.51 million, at a price of $1,672.
According to on-chain analyst Onchain Lens (@OnchainLens), a whale has been continuously depositing USDC and USDT into Aave V3 to short ETH, having deposited a total of $132.16 million worth of USDC and USDT. The whale then borrowed 35,001 ETH and transferred them to Binance for sale.
in April this year, KelpDAO's LayerZero bridge was exploited in a $292 million vulnerability attack, triggering an $8.45 billion deposit run on Aave within 48 hours, marking the largest capital outflow event in decentralized finance (DeFi) history. Aave founder Stani Kulechov stated that the design of Aave V3 withstood the market test, demonstrating the network's "resilience." However, independent data indicates that Aave's survival primarily relied on $300 million in emergency rescue, including a 25,000 ETH guarantee from the Aave DAO and a personal injection of 5,000 ETH (approximately $8.4 million) by Kulechov.Kulechov attributed the vulnerability to third-party infrastructure rather than core smart contracts. However, analysts pointed out that this incident exposed deficiencies in Aave's risk architecture and insurance mechanisms, leading the platform to incur significant bad debt (approximately $123.7 million in wETH). To prevent future bridge failures from triggering systemic bank runs, Aave V4 will adopt a modular "hub-and-spoke" architecture, enabling local risk auto-adjustment and collateral freezing.

According to Onchain Lens monitoring, a whale deposited 34.74 million USDT into Aave V3, borrowed 9,000 ETH worth $14.7 million, and deposited it into Binance, apparently to short ETH.
according to monitoring by on-chain analyst Yu Jin, after Longling Capital (0x347...dcf) deposited 10,000 ETH into Binance, its associated address withdrew 21.94 million USDT from Binance. The address holds 95,800 ETH (valued at $149 million) on Aave, has borrowed 91.33 million USDT, and the ETH liquidation price is $1,148.
According to monitoring by crypto analyst Ember (@EmberCN), a whale has borrowed 100 million USDT via Aave since yesterday and purchased 59,742 ETH at an average price of $1,681.Currently, the address holds a total of 133,800 ETH, worth approximately $212 million. At the current price, the newly purchased portion is showing an unrealized loss of around $6 million.On-chain data shows that the liquidation prices for the whale's two current lending positions are approximately $1,356 and $1,170, respectively.
according to on-chain analyst Ember's monitoring, if ETH falls another $40 to $1,555, a leveraged long position of 58,000 ETH held by a whale address on Aave will be liquidated. This position is valued at $93.66 million.
According to on-chain analyst EmberCN's monitoring, 20 minutes ago, a whale continued to borrow 32 million USDT, leveraging to buy 18,994.5 ETH. Today, they have accumulated borrowings of 76.42 million USDT from Aave and purchased 44,845 ETH at an average price of $1,704.
