Aave V4 Equities Hub and Tokenized Stocks
The launch of Aave V4's Equities Hub on Base allows non-US users to borrow USDC against tokenized stocks like Apple and Nvidia. This expands Aave's addressable market into traditional equities, which represent tens of trillions of dollars.
The Equities Hub has tight caps, with borrowing demand remaining low since launch. Additionally, the mismatch between traditional market hours and DeFi's 24/7 operation creates price gap risks during off-market hours.
