Aave lands on OKX L2
Aave launched on OKX’s Ethereum L2, X Layer — expanding access to Aave markets on another major L2 ( ). The move arrives as EthCC (Mar 30–Apr 2) is underway and the conference could surface further Aave V4 roadmap details for builders and lenders (x.com).
Integration is available directly inside OKX Wallet, letting users supply, borrow and earn yield on Aave markets natively without cross‑chain bridging or a separate wallet setup. (web3.okx.com (web3.okx.com)) Aave’s protocol held roughly $23.8 billion in total value locked across its deployments before this X Layer integration, according to DeFiLlama figures cited in coverage. (cryptonews.com (cryptonews.com)) X Layer’s total value locked was reported at about $25 million prior to the Aave integration, signaling a large gap between the L2’s existing liquidity and Aave’s multi‑billion TVL. (cryptonews.com (cryptonews.com)) Aave’s V4 upgrade went live on Ethereum mainnet on March 30, 2026 after on‑chain governance approvals. (coindesk.com (coindesk.com)) V4 implements a hub‑and‑spoke architecture that centralizes liquidity in a hub while allowing individual spokes to run independent risk settings and structured‑credit or tokenized‑asset markets. (cointelegraph.com (cointelegraph.com)) EthCC’s official agenda in Cannes lists “Aave DeFi Day” for March 30 and includes “The Agora,” an institutional forum on March 31, placing Aave roadmap sessions and institutional discussions on the conference schedule. (ethcc.io (ethcc.io)) OKX’s March 30 materials say the company serves more than 120 million users worldwide, while deployment notes and coverage highlight Aave markets on X Layer supporting features such as multiple eModes and high LTV brackets (reports cite up to ~88% LTV for certain configurations).
