We must understand that DeFi is currently becoming a major topic being debated in the financial communities. Its aim is to give users full control of their assets, due to Blockchain technology and decentralization. Without further ado, Aave becomes one of those pioneering projects. Aave (formerly ETHLend) is another blockchain project that came to light in 2017 and is one of the first open source, non-custodial DeFi protocols in the world of cryptocurrencies. In addition, the creation of money markets is allowed. Aave uses and leverages the LEND token to be able to offer discounted rates to holders. The token is ERC20, it is not a coin that works thanks to mining and it will be used to govern the Aave protocol.
Aave has two key features which are the Interest Rate Models which will allow borrowers to switch between stable and variable interest rates. We also have Flash Loans, which are a unique feature offered to developers that gives them the ability to borrow money from Aave and repay it with a transaction.
In conclusion, it is an important project within the world of decentralized finance, which gives us security and offers us the best rates despite the fact that its platform is very simple.
