Aave released the latest update on the rsETH security incident on the X platform, announcing that it has paused rsETH reserve-related operations on the Ethereum mainnet as well as networks including Arbitrum, Base, Mantle, and Linea. This measure is intended to prevent excess aETHrsETH from being withdrawn, thereby pushing positions close to the 95% liquidation threshold. This action aims to preserve as much capital as possible and reduce systemic risk while the asset recovery plan is underway. Aave stated that further progress and resolution plans will be continuously disclosed to the community.
Aave announced the latest developments regarding the rsETH security incident on X, stating that rsETH-related reserve operations have been suspended on Ethereum Mainnet and on networks including Arbitrum, Base, Mantle, and Linea.

Aave stated that it will continue to disclose subsequent updates and resolution plans to the community.
Base has announced that its first independent network upgrade, Base Azul, is now live on the testnet, with a target mainnet activation date of May 13, 2026. This upgrade marks Base’s first network-level upgrade conducted independently of the OP Stack. Officially, Azul will deliver improvements across three dimensions: security, performance, and developer experience. Specifically, Base will implement a multi-proof mechanism via Azul; base-reth-node will become its sole execution client; and Base will adopt the latest execution-layer specification (Osaka) to maintain full alignment with Ethereum. Users do not need to take any action for this upgrade.
Odaily News Aave provided an update on the rsETH incident via the X platform, stating that the WETH reserve on the Ethereum Core V3 market has been unfrozen. Users can now supply WETH again, although its Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio remains set at 0.Meanwhile, the WETH reserves on the Ethereum Prime, Arbitrum, Base, Mantle, and Linea networks are still frozen. Aave stated that the relevant service providers will continue to advance subsequent handling and will provide synchronized updates on the progress.
Odaily News Nansen has announced the introduction of a pay-per-call model, optimizing on-chain data access based on the x402 protocol and PayAI infrastructure. This model allows users to instantly query wallet data, fund flows, and "smart money" signals through USDC micropayments, eliminating the need for subscriptions, approvals, or API keys. The system automates the "request-billing-payment-return" process based on the HTTP 402 mechanism, supporting autonomous calls and payments by AI agents.Nansen stated that the new model already covers its entire API ecosystem, with basic data queries priced at approximately $0.01 per call and advanced signals at around $0.05, supporting settlement on the Base and Solana networks.

According to an official announcement, Coinbase has launched its crypto-backed lending service in the UK, enabling users to borrow USDC in under one minute using BTC, ETH, and cbETH as collateral. The service is powered by Morpho, an open-source lending protocol built on Base. Coinbase stated that this product first launched in the U.S. in January 2025. As of April 14, 2026, loans facilitated via Coinbase’s integration with Morpho have exceeded $2.17 billion in USDC. Users can monitor their loan health, historical annualized interest rates, and liquidation alerts directly within the Coinbase app. Interest rates are dynamically adjusted based on market conditions.
According to monetsupply.eth, Spark’s Strategy Lead, in a post on X, Spark has long maintained a relatively high borrowing interest rate cap for its SparkLend ETH market. Although this policy caused many users to migrate to Aave—resulting in substantial loss of business and revenue—the current market liquidity crisis has validated the prudence of this strategy. Presently, Aave is experiencing severe liquidity shortages across multiple chains—including Ethereum Mainnet, Arbitrum, Polygon Plasma, Mantle, and Base—with ETH borrowing utilization reaching 100%. This has prevented depositors from withdrawing funds and hindered normal liquidation of ETH collateral. He warns that if the current liquidity crunch persists, a 15–20% drop in ETH’s price could expose Aave to widespread bad debt—compounded by the potential impact of the rsETH vulnerability incident.
Monetsupply.eth, Strategy Lead of Spark Protocol, posted on X stating that in January this year, low-utilization assets such as rsETH were delisted, and the scope of acceptable collateral and protocol functionalities has been continuously tightened. At the time, this move triggered strong backlash from users employing “ETH circular leverage” strategies. Additionally, Spark has long imposed relatively high maximum interest rate caps on its ETH lending market. Over the past year, Spark has ceded part of its business and revenue to Aave—whose ETH borrowing rates at one point dropped to 10% or lower. However, amid the current market crisis, this strategy has proven more prudent: SparkLend still maintains ample ETH withdrawal liquidity, whereas Aave is experiencing liquidity strain—or even “locking”—across Ethereum mainnet and multiple Layer-2 chains including Arbitrum and Base. Monetsupply.eth further warned that, since ETH serves as the core collateral asset, when market utilization reaches 100%, liquidations of collateral will fail to execute normally. Liquidity exhaustion not only degrades depositors’ experience but may also pose systemic risk. Given Aave’s current liquidity shortage, a 15–20% drop in ETH’s price could trigger significant bad debt accumulation—exacerbated by potential fallout from the rsETH incident.
