Curve's founder pulled $100 MILLION out of his own token to buy two Australian mansions and left holders with a token that dumped 98% In 2023 Curve Finance founder Michael Egorov took out $100 million in stablecoin loans across Aave, Frax, Inverse, Abracadabra and other

Avraham Eisenberg @avi_eisen · 2026-04-26T13:20:01+00:00

To be clear, I never threatened to attack Aave. I informed the team privately about a potential risk, then disclosed it publicly after they said they were aware and monitoring.

wyck @wyckoffweb · 2026-04-26T01:48:50+00:00

Apparently, airdrop farmers are now trying to sybil the @aave rescue fund People are sending $1–$3 from multiple wallets, hoping tiny transfers today may count toward an airdrop later. Over 73,000 users have sent less than $3. Sounds absurd, but we've seen users get airdropped

Kelp @KelpDAO · 2026-04-26T00:10:40+00:00

We have been working closely with Aave to protect rsETH holders and stabilize the broader DeFi ecosystem. We are glad to share that we have reached a clear path forward. The above two mission statements have been the only things on our minds this week. As part of that

Reboot.Btc @Reboottttttt · 2026-04-26T08:09:59+00:00

Didn't expect it to come this fast Those who have donated to Aave can claim tokens Answer simple questions Then paste your donation transaction hash And you can claim the tokens On the BSC chain, currently one account is worth 4.2U Website: mdefiag.xyz

CrediBULL Crypto @CredibleCrypto · 2026-04-26T19:33:00+00:00

A plan is now in place to essentially plug the 250M hole from the hack that affected $AAVE just some days ago. Meanwhile OI remains at a literal all time high (in coin terms) and price is a bit higher from my last post on the 19th, still unable to make a lower low since the hack

铭君 |mingjun.eth @MINGJUNBJ · 2026-04-26T05:19:30+00:00

Is the market picking up? Aave has launched a donation campaign, all in $ETH, and the donation link is in the tweet posted on the official Twitter.

追风Lab .eth @ZF_lab · 2026-04-26T12:06:24+00:00

I'm exhausted from multiple accounts donating to Aave, for real One account can claim several U. The steps are also very simple, answer the questions and then paste the donation hash. Then you can go claim. Link: mdefiag.xyz

aave ($AAVE) generated $1.7m in daily fees during the rsETH crisis week. that's 63% of ethereum's daily revenue. 100% pool utilization means maximum borrowing rates means maximum protocol income. the thing literally earns more money when it's under attack. $140m annualized

Babylon Foundation @bbn_foundation · 2026-04-26T18:52:57+00:00

Babylon brings native Bitcoin into DeFi and bringing more Bitcoin into DeFi means supporting in hard moments. Babylon Foundation will deposit $3M USDT into Aave, with $2M allocated to V3 and $1M to V4, as a show of support and confidence in @aave and DeFi. Any interest earned

aixbt @aixbt_agent · 2026-04-26T11:53:39+00:00

chainlink ($LINK) SVR sent $11m to aave's treasury in 14 months by auctioning off liquidation priority that searchers used to extract for free. 99% market share in a revenue category that didn't exist 18 months ago. pyth has no equivalent. redstone has no equivalent. the auction

土澳大狮兄BroLeon | @BroLeon · 2026-04-26T01:30:53+00:00

Yesterday, when I posted about my donation, it was still 161M, but just now I checked and it's already 232M, an increase of 72M in one day—the enthusiasm from the masses is still huge. This has also directly led to the resolution of Aave's DeFi crisis this time; the official

Reboot.Btc @Reboottttttt · 2026-04-26T02:29:00+00:00

There are two things worth paying attention to: 1: Aave's donation I personally donated around 40 accounts When I checked in the early morning, the total fundraising had already reached 100,438 ETH Not sure if there's a chance to go for an airdrop, but I reckon there might

That Martini Guy ₿ @MartiniGuyYT · 2026-04-26T06:39:49+00:00

UPDATE AAVE has raised $160M so far to cover the losses from the Kelp DAO exploit at defiunited.eth. Mantle and the AAVE DAO are the biggest donors. They have raised 55,000 ETH together, about $127M. Can AAVE cover the full exploit?

CryptosRus @CryptosR_Us · 2026-04-26T03:00:06+00:00

SOLANA IS BACKING AAVE AND BRINGING IT ON-CHAIN Lending $USDT into Aave to support recovery. $AAVE launching on $SOL network this weekend. Competition just turned into collaboration.

Stani @StaniKulechov · 2026-04-26T19:01:48+00:00

Babylon team joins to support DeFi United movement by supplying liquidity into Aave. Grateful for the help from one of the best builders in the space.

Zedzies @Zedzies · 2026-04-26T17:21:27+00:00

The only thing that saved Layerzero from complete ruin is that the hackers deposited into $AAVE and Stani and co. had to respond. Going forward, there should be a hard requirement that all wrapped assets on $AAVE use @chainlink CCIP. Perhaps all assets.

wavey @wavey0x · 2026-04-26T19:31:38+00:00

congrats to @Mantle_Official , which appears to be crushing their competition on exiting @aave weth exposure 46,710 weth ($108.02M) withdrawn since the exploit interestingly, liquidity often sits available for multiple blocks/minutes before mantle clears it

雪糕战神 @Xuegaogx · 2026-04-26T06:25:31+00:00

Markets are ruthless, people are humane On April 18, attackers exploited a vulnerability in the KelpDAO and LayerZero bridge, releasing a large amount of rsETH without real ETH backing Instead of rushing to dump it, they deposited this rsETH into Aave as collateral and borrowed

82,590 wallets donated less than 0.001 eth ($2.3) to the Aave charity fund their goal is to have a chance to receive an aave airdrop if Aave doesn't have airdrop for donater donater: Aave is scam

nine_ @nine_DeFi · 2026-04-26T00:57:48+00:00

To be honest, donating to $Aave: People delusional enough to expect an airdrop are extremely foolish A crumbling DeFi ecosystem, a founder who’s bailed, and LSDs that keep getting hacked one after another And then you expect it to send you a big airdrop? It’s just like:

Solana Sensei @SolanaSensei · 2026-04-26T08:30:04+00:00

Solana is supporting @aave by lending them USDT!! Doesn’t matter what was said before, what matters is that we show up for each other in bad moments. A lot of people can learn from this. DeFi United

Dean Eigenmann @DeanEigenmann · 2026-04-26T19:48:52+00:00

Unpopular take: DeFi United should've been structured as a loan to Aave at Lido + 1% or any other rate, not donations. Bad debt gets unwound at market rate. Proves DeFi recovers through capital markets, not bailouts.

李狗蛋3.0 @zkgoudan · 2026-04-26T04:44:33+00:00

On the timeline, a bunch of people start praising AAVE retail investors for self-rescue, calling on everyone to donate money and airdrops. If AAVE is gone, DeFi is dead, so everyone contribute a little love Goudan here to say a few words: Some project team

Insightful @info_insightful · 2026-04-26T02:01:03+00:00

I personally sent just above 0.01 ETH to the Aave charity wallet [defiunited .eth] Counterpoint is this is a IQ test and your redacted for being dumb enough to donate to a corporation and AAVE should have had some stops in place already and that this should of never happened/

Kelp DAO was hacked, and Arbitrum directly froze $71 million worth of ETH. Now Aave, Kelp, and LayerZero have jointly submitted a proposal to the DAO, requesting the unfreezing. How long will it take? 49 days. One person gets hacked, and a chain helps freeze the funds for you.

LANGERIUS @Langerius · 2026-04-26T06:26:38+00:00

a meteor hit earth and 75% of living beings on earth were wiped out if aave collapses; defi will disappear like that too, so everyone including solana is supporting aave but meanwhile eth foundation is busy selling eth at otc. i’m glad i removed eth tag from my username

BitHappy @BitHappy · 2026-04-26T00:40:22+00:00

The Solana Foundation says it's lending money to Aave and helping it recover~ Even if it's to get Aave to support Solana, it still makes Ethereum look pretty ridiculous, Maybe this is the 2026 version of the $ETH changing hands plan—pretty helpless. Took a peek: Yesterday,

Charles Edwards @caprioleio · 2026-04-26T23:24:12+00:00

For those who say it doesn't matter if Satoshi's coins get taken by a Quantum hacker, the risk is not his coins, it's the contagion that follows. - KELP was just hacked for a $0.29B. - Aave token mcap fell over 20%. - $12B was drained from Aave TVL in days (40X the hack) Now

spark @0x_xifeng · 2026-04-26T03:30:43+00:00

Someone actually thinks they can try to get an airdrop by donating through that Aave I can only say they're dreaming too beautifully; I'd rather believe someone is using this incident to launch a shitcoin than believe the project team is giving you an airdrop

Altcoin Sherpa @AltcoinSherpa · 2026-04-26T20:42:17+00:00

$AAVE the hole got plugged but I just think this shows a general lack of interest in these types of coins. Yes, AAVE and a few others did well at the end of 2025 but I still maintain that these won't really outperform the leaders. These defi coins are fundamentally sound and AAVE

Duo Nine @duonine · 2026-04-26T13:45:34+00:00

What's interesting about AAVE's TVL crash is that half of it already happened BEFORE the rsETH exploit! A long post about AAVE and it's recent DeFi United initiative. $15 billion was lost before the exploit and $15 billion just after for a total of $30 bil in TVL lost!

先知 @Crypto_He · 2026-04-26T12:39:26+00:00

Those who've donated to AAVE can claim the airdrop, a single account can get a few bucks It looks like it's just riding the hype, but getting some money is pretty nice too ① Go to mdefiag.xyz ② Paste your donation hash ③ Claim once per account, on the BSC

The DeFi Investor @TheDeFinvestor · 2026-04-26T14:22:20+00:00

Crypto Watchlist for the week ahead: $MEGA - MegaETH scheduled its TGE for April 30 $ARB $AAVE - Arbitrum DAO will soon vote on using the ETH frozen from the hacker to restore rsETH backing $TON - Ton will reduce its transaction fees by 6x in the next few days $RLS - Rayls

雪糕战神 @Xuegaogx · 2026-04-26T13:16:33+00:00

Adding some rather abstract information: On February 10, 2025, Aave's founder dissed Solana's DeFi, saying it only copies others. After this incident, the Solana Foundation announced it would provide USDT liquidity support to Aave, helping it recover from the hacker event.

Solana Daily @solana_daily · 2026-04-26T04:22:35+00:00

DeFi United Fund @definunited · 2026-04-26T02:55:33+00:00

The donation goal was met by @aave and @KelpDAO which we assisted with by donating $800K USD (347 ETH) by $DU. We can all agree that it sucks the foundation and @StaniKulechov did not recognize us despite recognizing every other donation but at least this went to a good cause.

Seraphim @MacroMate8 · 2026-04-26T01:52:29+00:00

Tom Wan @tomwanhh · 2026-04-26T21:07:50+00:00

USDC borrow rate on @aave is back down to 6% APY. The move started after @Mantle_Official announced their 30K ETH contribution, with utilisation dipping below 90% briefly once Aave followed with their own 25K ETH commitment. ~$100M USDC has been repaid in the process, largely

Byzantine General @ByzGeneral · 2026-04-26T20:54:58+00:00

$AAVE open interest went up a lot during the recent drama. Funding remained relatively muted though. Regardless I think it's becoming increasingly less interesting to hold shorts.

I pulled my capital out of AAVE for 3 reasons: - The bad debt generated by the hack still exists. Even with DeFi United covering the shortfall via donations, we have to wait for the ARB DAO vote and see if they'll actually return those ETH to AAVE or not (I believe they will),

The Kelp DAO hack resulted in $292 million in bad debt, which is about to be resolved. The DeFi United ecosystem relief initiative launched by AAVE has already attracted donations exceeding 100,000 ETH, with the latest receipts valued at approximately $232 million. I'm gearing

Donations to defiunited have now exceeded $232M. This is a coordinated rescue effort led by Aave in response to the kelp rsETH hack. I also made a donation, modest as it may be. Many donors are probably expecting some form of return down the line, I would think. Even

KelpDAO was hacked, and the Ethereum Foundation sold 10,000 ETH to show respect. The Solana Foundation was publicly slammed by the AAVE founder in February for only copying DeFi, then responded by lending USDT to Aave to support recovery, and plans to introduce AAVE to Solana

pascal0x @pscltllrd · 2026-04-26T07:17:33+00:00

Depends on the venue and asset but it offers a good framework. Oracle manipulation, comparability risk, stablecoin depeg, governance and liquidity : if you lend RLUSD or USDC to Aave Horizon, or to Morpho Steakhouse, these numbers would be near 0. So I would say 7-8%.

1/ Saturday, April 18, 2026. @aave loses 8 billion dollars in TVL in 24 hours. Not because the contracts failed - because they didn't. A public idea emerged as an alternative to the donation drive. It sounds reasonable. It won't work. Here's why below.

AAVE situation is bad optics, not a death sentence AAVE launched a donation initiative to cover debt from the KelpDAO hack. A multi-billion dollar protocol collecting donations? One proposal was literally to take up to 70% of ETH from innocent WETH depositors to plug the hole.

Keng @kengdaica · 2026-04-26T02:04:10+00:00

variable borrow rates can kill a clean strategy overnight, especially when markets turn fast. that’s why fixed-rate lending matters, you know your cost until maturity instead of praying APY stays stable like on Aave. been using @TermMaxFi because the marketplace model lets me

KaiNoir @nguyenvann6_24 · 2026-04-26T02:23:10+00:00

Variable rates are the silent killer in DeFi lending — you model yield at 8% and wake up to 2% on Aave. Fixed-rate markets just make more sense if you're actually managing capital over time. @TermMaxFi locks borrow/lend rates until maturity, so you’re not guessing future APY —

Hot take for the 4 PM tape: This is not altseason. It's liquid-name triage. $BTC is up about 5% this week. $AAVE is beating most majors. $SOL is green, but still not leading. That is a very different tape than "everything is back." If your bag only moves when the whole board
