On 2025-03-16 the current Aave price/exchange rate is 152.33 EUR.

AAVE is a decentralized platform based on the Ethereum network that allows users to borrow, lend, and earn interest on crypto assets without any intermediary.

Aave is a system of smart contracts that enables assets to be managed by a distributed network of computers running its software. 

This means Aave users do not need to trust a particular institution or person to manage their funds.

Users who want to lend or borrow must pay a certain collateral. 

For example, if a person wants to borrow $100 worth of Ethereum, he/she must first make a deposit of more than $100 in another cryptocurrency. 

Collateral is placed in the so-called. lending pool, something like a mutual fund.

When someone wants to take a loan, they get the amount from this mutual fund.
To make the whole process easier, Aave issues 2 tokens:

AAVE cryptocurrency and aToken.

AAVE is the native cryptocurrency within the Aave network. 

Users who use the AAVE token as collateral may receive a discount on transaction fees, while users who borrow the AAVE will not be charged a fee.

aTokens are issued when assets are deposited into Aave’s liquidity pool in a ratio of 1:1. 

They are marked according to the cryptocurrency stored. 

They are burned when they are restored.

At the time of writing this text, there were around 14,634,300 AAVE coins in circulation.

The maximum supply of AAVE coins is 16,000,000.

One of the biggest advantages of the Aave network is easy lending and borrowing without the need for third parties.

Users can borrow more than 20 cryptocurrencies. 

Compared to other DeFi platforms, Aave has one of the largest cryptocurrency offers.

Also, a big advantage of the Aave platform is the security it provides to its users. 

In addition to loans, Aave provides users with the opportunity to earn passive interest income from the amount they deposit in a mutual fund (pool).

Another great benefit of Aave is “rate switching”. 

The user can choose between fixed and floating interest rates. 

The most popular choice is fixed interest rates because they 
provide protection in the event of large changes in prices in the cryptocurrency market.

Aave is a decentralized open-source platform that uses the Proof-of-Stake (PoS) protocol to validate transactions, meaning it can’t be mined in a classic way (like Bitcoin).

Holders can lock a certain number of AAVE tokens into a shared pool and receive a certain reward in the form of interest.

Stani Kulechov is the founder of the Aave platform. 

Aave's predecessor was ETHLend. 

As a reason for founding the Aave platform, Kulechov cited a lack of applications for crypto loans on the Ethereum network.
