About the Company

Aave

Non-custodial DeFi lending, borrowing, flash loans

Aave is a decentralized finance protocol that lets people lend and borrow a wide range of cryptocurrencies without giving up custody of their funds. Depositors lock their crypto into liquidity pools managed by smart contracts on Ethereum and earn interest. Borrowers take loans against collateral that is overcollateralized, meaning the collateral value exceeds the loan value to reduce risk of default. The protocol also offers flash loans, which are uncollateralized and must be borrowed and repaid within the same blockchain transaction. Governance is handled by AAVE token holders who vote on proposals and updates. Compared with many competitors, Aave does not control user funds, supports multiple assets, and includes features like flash loans and on-chain governance, making it a non-custodial, community-driven liquidity protocol. The overall goal is to provide a transparent, programmable, permissionless way to manage crypto liquidity and borrowing across a wide set of assets.
